… don’t put on your website that you take reservations and, when i call, tell me you only do that for parties of 5 or more.

i hope 2010 brings back vowels:
yeah, i get it. all of the normal word URLs are taken. you can’t just go out and register www.iceberg.com, but you can register www.icebrrg.com. mashable had an article about it way back in 2007. yeah, i get it. web 2.0 and all that but really it’s just dumb and may actually be exacerbating our nation’s declining literacy. please stop it.
when i say “thank you” the proper response should be “you’re welcome.” saying “it’s my pleasure” is the only thing other than “you’re welcome” that comes close to being proper.
sooo … my yahoo account got hacked a few months ago. to stem the tide of obnoxious sales messages being sent to my address book, i shut the account down. of course, now that sign-in doesn’t work for flickr.
i wrote to yahoo account services and explained the situation. they had me jumping through all kinds of hoops to verify the account belonged to me: name, email address, copy of government issued ID, birthdate, zip code, etc.. i faxed them the stupid questionnaire which was no help AT ALL since i apparently got one question wrong. i opened the account more than 10 years ago and i have no memory of the security settings required back then. yahoo doesn’t care.

you know how sometimes people ask you to do things that you (a) have no interest in, (b) are not particularly good at and (c) would rather be taken care of my someone who knows what’s what? Read the rest of this entry »
i wear shoes most of my waking hours because it is more comfortable for me. if your carpet or flooring is so important to you that you don’t want it walked on, hang it on the wall, don’t spread it on the ground. i would never ever require a guest in my home to be uncomfortable just to protect my stuff. i think it’s rude.
