Question & Antses

Friday, Mar. 05, 2010 - 12:18 a.m.

John did me a huge favor and printed out the camcorder manual at work.

A paper one was not included, but a CD was.

Honestly? Cheaper than paper or a print run to just put it on a CD?

But he had to deal with the printer from hell.

The collation screwed up, and the pages need to be flipped up and over like a flip chart instead of being looked at from left to right like a book.

However, it didn't cost anything, so I guess neither of us need to really get bristly over this.

It's just dumb and annoying is all.

On the way out the door to go to work today, John found ants. Since we didn't have time to do a full on assault on them, he placed an ant stake in their path, and as long as they're not in the way, he wants to leave the stake where it is and let the ants have as much poison out of is as they can stand and in a few days they'll be in ant heaven.

So, there's an icky little hive of industry over by the front door, but it's off to one side and in the long run, hopefully, this will deal with that nest.

I'm still waiting for a couple of accessories for the camcorder, but then I'll use it in earnest.

If earnest will hold still for it.

I mean the test shots of the living room are okayyy. But it's kinda boring.

Big D asked a really cool trivia question over on Facebook. Can anybody name a movie title that's got a question mark in it?

Answers in the comments section, if you please.

That's it. Have a nice Friday.
