ChaCha n’ More August 8, 2008
Have you heard of ChaCha? I just found out about this the other day, and it’s actually really cool. You call a 1-800 number (1-800-2CHACHA, which is 1-800-244-2242) and ask a question, any question, and then hang up. They text you back the answer in a few minutes. I read about this somewhere, and saved the number in my phone. For whatever reason, I couldn’t think of the scientific term for the stiffening of the limbs after death – I’m not sure why I was thinking about this. Anyway, I remembered this ChaCha thing and decided to try it out. I called and left my question, and within 2-3 minutes they texted me the answer (it’s rigor mortis). Pretty cool.
I was actually planning on heading to Beijing for the Olympics, but now I’m definitely not going. Inconsiderate pricks.
There are 16 people in the US with my name. How many of you are there?
Looking for a new job? I’d recommend starting at http://rim.jobs – Kick start your career!
I’ve posted about “urban exploration” and infiltration stuff on here before. I’ve been fascinated by this stuff for a long time, but today I came across something a bit different. Someone explored (and took pictures of) Mike Tyson’s old mansion. That place is pretty awesome, and it’s crazy that it’s still in such nice condition.
I’m not exactly sure how I stumbled upon this prison survival guide, but I thought it was pretty interesting… Hopefully I will never need any of that information, though.
More news about the upcoming Bruno movie – He (Sacha Baron Cohen) recently organized a cage fighting event in Arkansas. If you’re familiar with his Bruno character, you’d be correct in assuming that it got extremely homosexual (and very uncomfortable for most of the attendees) pretty quickly… I love this stuff. Check out the story here.
I wish I would have been aware of these Wal-Mart intercom codes when I was younger, I definitely would have had a lot of fun with those.
I’ve found a couple of pretty cool shirts on VintageVantage’s auction page. But that’s not real vintage. If you want real vintage, you have to pay about $36,000 for a pair of jeans that were hailed out of a mine in the Mojave desert. They’ve gotta be at least 100 years old. Otherwise you’re just a douchebag.
I haven’t listened to Kill You In The Face, but I must say, they have one of the best names I’ve ever heard.
Some people spelled out ‘YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL’ using plastic cups in the holes of a chainlink fence. Naturally, people changed the letters around, but some of the pictures in the series are pretty interesting.
I haven’t seen The Dark Knight yet, I definitely need to get around to that. From what I’ve hard though, it would have been better if Michael Bay had his way.
I actually had more I wanted to get to, but I’m heading to Bethany Beach for the weekend with some friends I haven’t seen in a while. Have a great weekend everyone!

Good post john. I miss these types of posts filled with random links that you’ve found browsing.
I was reading the prison survival guide, JUST IN CASE. Makes me want to never leave home in the fear I might actually do something illegal and be locked up.
Oh and don’t forget to find us some freebies.

Go and see The Dark Knight ASAP. It’s mildly orgasmic.

A friend of mine got hold of a store’s security codes (not Walmart) and caused a bit of havoc. He had them thinking there was a bomb in the store and by the time he owned up, he was in a lot of trouble.
