I'm very excited and anxious to see the new season of Smallville coming in a couple of weeks. I was hoping that it would've began with Supernatural but they aren't even on the same day anymore.

Wow it looks like a very dark season according to this teaser trailer. I'm glad to see Clark embracing his shield on his chest and sort of having a cape but it's all black instead of blue and red. Come on Clark, where's the tights with the underwear on the outside and the boots and cape? I want to know when the glasses are coming too because how are people supposed to be able to be fooled by the cape when he's not putting his trademark "glasses" disguise on. I mean, is his disguise going to be that curl over his forehead? Is he even gonna make that little curl?
This is a very long show, I mean Season 9? That's pretty freakin' good. I'm a little confused though. It's supposed to be that when he gets his job with the Daily Planet that he already has a costume before he meets Lois. Go ahead and watch the first Superman movie if you don't believe me.
I keep saying perhaps at the end of "this" season he will embrace his destiny and on the last episode he'll be wearing tights. But no, now they are on Season 9 which don't get me wrong I'm glad they mixed it up but the show is going a bit off track. Lex Luthor dies? Clark never wears glasses? Lana having powers? Mom is a state senator living in D.C.? Jimmy Olsen DIES!?!? What?
I'm pretty sure that Lex is back though because they showed a naked body at the very end in the back yard from that thing that had all the light in it. So I'm pretty sure that is Lex come back to life so they are at least saving him. Maybe he will be eviler than ever, is that even a word? Maybe, just maybe he will come back with no memory so he won't remember that he knows that Clark is really "the traveler" but then he will meet the Clark with the black cape and shield and think that this Clark is different than the real Clark in blue and red lol. It's confusing!
Despite all the strange changes I still love the show, I'm still obsessed and I'm holding my breath until September 25th 2009.
Oh did you notice in this teaser Callum Blue? He's going to play Zod and is already showing up in his IMDB profile as being in 9 episodes for 2009. AWESOME!

I've had enough of DDO
I like the Dungeons and Dragons Online game (the free version) but apparently it doesn't like me too much. Every time I go into this one zone from Misery's Peak all of a sudden my internet connection dies long enough for the game to crash but then it bounces back and I'm online again. I don't get it. Also I've noticed that now I can't reboot my computer without crashing the whole network (DSL router). If I reboot then I lose connection for the entire network so I have reset everything by turning off the DSL modem, unplugging the router blah blah blah.
So, I've decided that DDO is history. All of this crap I think is directly related to DDO so it's gone. I mean I can't really blame the game but why does it crash my internet connection every time I go in that 1 zone? Why even allow me to play the game at all?
It's a trial anyway, I can get to level 20 and that's it. Once I get to level 20 the game is done. I'm sure I can play for years with level 20 but whats the point if it's all the same zone every time? I will probably never be able to leave that island so why even bother? I mean, I might as well play the EQ game that you can only get to level 10 with.
Eh, I have lots of other things going on in my life that I can't be bothered by online games. Maybe if I were bored that's one thing but I'm not that bored lol.

GreenSun Solar Panels
GreenSun solar panels: direct sunlight optional - Source Dvice.com
I've been trying to think of what would make building a PVC bicycle trailer worth my time and energy if I don't have electricity. Solar panels are expensive and it's probably not easy to ride a bicycle with turbines attached to the back of the trailer.
This is the perfect solution. Granted you are going to have to make your trailer roof flat and not rounded but I kind of figured it wouldn't be easy to make a rounded roof anyway. This doesn't require that much sun either to produce a lot of electricity and these panels are cheaper to buy than solar panels are.
They are still in development but let's wait and see if these actually do make it to the big market and are widely available at your local Home Depot. Or online maybe.

Wifi Dowsing Rod?
Wi-Fi Dowsing Rod makes you look like a confused time traveler - Source Dvice.com
Wow, all I have to say is wow. This product is just the most usless product I've ever seen lol. I mean sure you can find a wifi hotspot but where is the tinfoil hat that goes with this?
Dowsing Rods were an old form of searching for water. I hate to tell you but it's not the 1500's anymore and the last time I checked there wifi hotspot isn't hiding with the water.
I've actually seen smaller products that do find wifi hotspots that don't make you look crazy. In fact, you don't even need to search for a wifi hotspot, just go to Starbucks and McDonald's, they have them for free. They also have them at some book store chains like Barnes & Noble. All you have to do is look for the sign in the window that says FREE WIFI and you are good to go and you don't have to worry about looking like a fashion disaster.
Ads on My Blog
Ok, I put these ads in here at the beginning of September because I wanted to help make it easier for me to pay for my website every month and my domain every year and possibly have some extra but it doesn't seem to be working out for me.
On October 1st 2009 when I change my blogs name (per poll results) I'm going to remove all ads if they prove no revenue gained from lack of clicks and if the page impressions aren't doing any good.
One thing that has been irritating me is going to my own website and having popup ads break through my popup blocker. Also one of the issues is that it tells me that my computer has a virus and tries to scan for them but I've seen that before, they just want you to buy their software so they try to trick you like that. So it's for that very reason I want to get rid of all the ads but I'm willing to give them a full month before getting rid of them all.
If I can make some extra money to help pay for this site then I'm gonna go for it but if it doesn't do me any good then it's not worth it.

My Pet Peeves
I have pet peeves. No, I don't have a cat named peeves.
It really irritates me when I go to the fridge and there is something empty in there. If I see an empty gallon of milk then I'm the one who has to throw it away and I didn't even finish it. Oh but it wasn't finished. There was at least half a sip left.
When I go to pour the ice trays out into the ice bucket in the freezer and there's nothing in the ice tray. OMG that irritates me so much. The arrowhead is right next to the fridge, it doesn't take but 5 seconds to fill the ice tray.
Well, I woke up this morning and went to the fridge to have some cereal but all the cereal is gone, all the milk (but half a sip) is gone so now I gotta go to the store on my bike to get all that. Eh screw it, I'm gettin a maple cinnamon roll! So there!
