I like that title. Brush your teeth at least two times a day to keep the doctor away. Even Dracula on Sesame Street said that and he loved red apples, remember? However, I’ve noticed a recent trend in the last year by visiting a few friends and spending sometime with them. A few of the people I know finish brushing their teeth in under half a minute while I’m waiting for them to get ready to go out.

I was reading a newspaper advertisement for Fry’s Electronics today. A new store is opening nearby, and they have a huge grand opening sale going on. I like that chain of stores, as sometimes they have really good deals on electronics. I usually consult a few people before buying electronics, and was showing some of the ads to a good friend of mine, Stapled, when I saw an ad that did not mention the screen size of an LCD monitor for sale.

For the past 5 months, most of the parking at my university has been in chaos. A new parking structure is under construction over an already working parking lot, and another parking structure that was finished last year seems to be having parking “incidents” almost everyday. The university has been planning on improving the parking for over a year, and they started right when this busy semester started. In summer of this year, almost no one used the parking lots, giving the administration a chance to fix the parking issues. Instead, the campus came out with the idea of having a fair with Ferris wheels and other “attractions” in the parking lots, to earn some return. The result? Nobody showed up, and the entire “festival” was a waste of money and a missed opportunity to fix the parking lots.

Have you ever deposited money into your account through the ATM? Your bank will typically allow you to use up to $100 of the deposit amount instantly. That way, the bank can later on verify that you actually did deposit the amount you specified and are not trying to “take advantage” of the whole process, or else sue you and everything you stand for.

I have my address book and calendar spread over several platforms. Outlook, Yahoo and Hotmail all have different addresses and calendar appointments for me. Right now, I’m trying to consolidate everything into Palm Desktop, and it’s proving to be a hassle.
