Twitter: A Fish Story - 07/22/10 07:14 PM
With all the issues I've had in recent weeks with Twitter, I began to wonder...where did the famous "fail whale" come from? After doing a bit of research, you can now call me Ishmael. I present Twitter: A Fish Story. The artist who created what is now known round the world as the "Fail Whale" is Yiying Lu. Miss Lu originally created it as a birthday card for a friend of hers who was overseas. When she posted the image on the image hosting website iStockPhoto.com, the people at Twitter liked it so much, they decided to use it as their (14 comments)
NASCAR NATION: Jimmie Johnson's a Daddy! - 07/07/10 07:11 PM
Just wanted to say "Congratulations!" to Jimmie Johnson and his beautiful wife, Chandra, on the birth of their baby girl. Looks like he will be able to race in Saturday's Sprint Cup race at Chicagoland Speedway after all. Sorry, Aric Almirola (his stand-in if Jimmie wasn't able to make it). These ladies have great timing. So far, neither Carl Edwards nor Elliott Sadler missed the births of their children or their races afterwards. Let's see if Juan Pablo Montoya and Jeff Gordon miss any races. They definitely won't be missing the births. Priorities, my friend. Family comes before racing. Congrats to (8 comments)
NASCAR NATION: Damage at Daytona - 07/04/10 11:42 AM
You KNEW there'd be lots of damage at Daytona. The trick is to hoping your driver isn't in it. Luckily, mine wasn't. But, whoo-boy! What a night of racing on the famous Daytona International Speedway, especially since it's the last race before they start repaving it on Monday for next season. After a rain delay of an hour and a half, a beautiful rendition of "America the Beautiful" by former Hootie and the Blowfish frontman and current country music sensation Darius Rucker and the recognition of six brave men who had received the Medal of Honor for their service in years (6 comments)
4th of July Celebrations in Riverside CA - 07/02/10 12:42 AM
Every year, my family tends to celebrate the 4th of July in Riverside CA in the same way. At least, as long as we are in town for the 4th. We pack up a cooler, grab the lawn chairs, make sure we have plenty of liquid refreshment (it does tend to be hot) and head on over to downtown Riverside to claim our spot in the parking lot of (OK, I'm not giving away my secret spot because it's getting harder and harder to cop a squat each year since the crowds grow and I don't know who's blabbing) at the (7 comments)
