There has been a lot of talk about a website called PleaseRobMe.com that lists people as the check into different locations, meaning that they aren’t home creating the perfect opportunity for the twittering burglar.  This brings up the issue with publically displaying you’re whereabouts and the location of your home. I find it annoying and stupid that people check in and twitter it when they get home it the first place; it seems somewhat narcissistic to me.

This had we wondering what if a blood thirsty red neck (hey, I live in Texas, we are not in short supply) that is tired of hunting game and tweets that they are going to be away for the weekend so they could wait for the would be burglar to break in.  The soon to be burglarized homeowner siting in his la-z-boy recliner sipping a lone star with one hand while the other perspiring, holding the loaded shot-gun with finger quivering on the trigger just waiting for the burglar to break in to take aim at his next kill.

Certainly this is all hypothetical, but it would make for a good episode of CSI.

It may by April, but with a quarter of this year already behind me I have a better idea and a better chance of keeping with my New Year’s Resolutions. More of a todo list than normal resolutions.

(in no particular order)

1. Start my own business
2. Loose weight
3. Start video podcast
4. Graduate college
5. Pay down credit card debt
6. Learn to play the guitar. (real kind, not just the rockband kind)
7. Brew my own beer
8. Apply to grad school

Is it just me or is blogging hard. I mean in the sense of keeping up and actually writing interesting content on a regular basis. I find myself having a lot of good ideas that I want to write about but then when I am in front of the keyboard with some spare time not one single descent idea comes to mind. Some would say that writing is like a muscle and you have to constantly use it to keep it in shape. Here’s to trying to blog more often.

I’m not sure why I’m excited for Christmas this year, whether it is the fact that I have no idea what I’m getting or the prospect of getting up at 4:30 am and going to work and collecting some double overtime but I’m excited for Christmas to get here. All of my Christmas is done and I’m waiting on the last of the Amazon.com gift wrapped stuff to show up on Monday. Aside from the stuff that I bought through amazon and shucked out the 3.99 for gift wrapping(well worth it in my mind) everything else is just sitting around waiting to be hastily wrapped after I get home from work on Monday just to be ripped open mere minutes later.
