The Big DumpTruck

As a nine-year-old who watches a little too much of the Weather Channel told me this morning, tomorrow is going to be a “mixed bag”. Woo hoo! I hope it includes a lot of heat and wind! What? No? You mean ice and snow and rain? Well that’s not the kid of “mixed bag” I like.

Oh, and I’m going to give you ONE warning…if you get an email from paypal-ebay.com telling you you need to give over some financial info? It’s a scam. I don’t think the site is up anymore, but I’m warning you just the same. If my research last night is correct, it’s some college wanker who set up the domain about 3 weeks ago. “Somebody’s going to Ja-il.” I can’t wait to read about this in the news. I sent everything off to ebay as soon as I got it. The funny thing was looking up the email address the guy used to register the domain. He posted to a CGI programming group that he needed someone to write him some financial software and that “money is no object” or something like that. Didn’t it occur to him that he could be traced?

Here, while I’m getting some stuff done and can’t spend a lot of time coming up with the long-winded useful crap I normally share with you, I instead point you to this site: Anomalies Unlimited – the funny “peculiar” and the funny “haha”. Don’t blame me if you lose an hour or two just browsing.

I somehow ended up on the Alexa search site this morning, and I think it’s pretty cool. So cool, in fact, that I downloaded their search toolbar to my browser. Additionally so cool that they are owned by Amazon, and if you access them via my site or download the tool bar from the link I added on the right, you can automate the way you help the Big DumpTruck. The toolbar has an Amazon icon in the far right corner. Now if you use THAT to access Amazon, you’ll automatically be telling them I referred you. No need to come to this site first before you go there. Cool, huh? I think so. Here’s

a sample review page for THIS site. You have entered a review, haven’t you?

I don’t want to do a hard sell, but this is a great way to keep the Dump alive. All proceeds from the referral fees I own go right back to paying for hosting, and domain renewal (due in exactly three weeks. Uh oh.) Okay, that’s it for the commercial. I’ll just keep the link to the toolbar over on the right somewhere. IE users can grab it now, later or never. I’ll still love you.

Okay, there, you happy? Good.

p.s. This page is the number one result if you search for “David Blaine Streaming” on Google. I don’t ask, I just report. (I’m endlessly fascinated by being the number one result for anything on Google, especially if I assume I won’t even be on the first page.

Now is it fair to refer to Junior as a 4 year old when he’s so much closer to being 5 (January 6th) and thus acts “older” than a 4yo? Should I be saying “My almost four year old” so that I’m not deceiving people into thinking I have a genius on my hands. I mean, I do, but I don’t want to have people turn around and say I tricked them.

Him: Where are my new pajamas?

Me: On the stairs, I didn’ t bring them up yet.

Him: Thanks, Mama!

Me: Oh, no problem, it’s my job.

Him: Oh, is that so?

Is that so? Is that so? Who is this person? (p.s. They are the LL Bean Lizard PJs. Very very nice.)
