Ultima Online “Eighth Age”

Eighth Age is Ultima Online’s foray into the new mmorpg world dominated by WoW. Why should you pre-buy it? Well for one, it “comes with a free advanced character (a $29.99 value).” Glad to see they’re testing the eBay market ahead of time too.

And slightly on that note: A World of Warcraft World

Women’s Conference revisited

I’m getting a lot of search strings for the women’s conference in Denver with Sarah Ferguson and Jessica Lynch. If you actually went to this conference, can you please post a comment to my blog? My husband received an identical postcard for an upcoming financial conference. Though there are a lot of Better Business Bureau google hits for this company, there isn’t any information about the company or their conferences. It pisses me off that a lot of rather naive people that I know have received these invitations and I’m sure other people who didn’t have people like me to say “don’t do it!” are accepting these tickets only to end up at some high-pressure annoying sales thing.

Life Journal predicts life span?




Life Journal predicts life span?

Originally uploaded by Meer.

Based on when Life Journal placed certain events in my life history, I can figure out how much longer until middle adulthood. Perhaps if I pay extra for the “midlife crisis package” it will delay how long until middle adulthood appears…

In case you were wondering, it ends at late adulthood. No “senile years” or “years with decreased capacity”.

threadless full of heart

Buy a special Katrina shirt for $10 from threadless and they’ll donate $20 to Hurricane Katrina relief. There’s even still a few shirts.
