QotD: Failure is Not an Option

nobody@vox.com(Xeyli) — Mon, 10 Nov 2008 13:19:13 -1000

What would you attempt to do if you knew you wouldn't fail?
Submitted by Beautifully Broken

I would open up my own cafe. I'd employ all my snarky co-workers from Borders to work there. there would be a theme to the place.. and late night, we would have live music or poetry reading or some other creative things.

yeah, that's my dream. too bad it's not feasible. it's too competitive a market, especially here where everyone loves the Starbucks.

QotD: So Not True!

What misconception about the place you live bothers you the most?
Submitted by Jessmiloo

It either has to be:

People think we haven't as advanced technology as the rest of the world. Ohhhh no... you live on an island. You must not have easy access to the internet.
People think we are not a state of the United States of America. I was at a college basketball game in Fresno, and these (moron) ladies behind us said, "We love your country!" Yeah... you live in "our country." morons.
(from Kristie) People think just because you live in Hawai'i makes you Hawaiian. "Well, if you live in Texas, you become a Texan, right?" Ohhhhhh no... it doesn't work the same here. Hawaiians are a people, and it is a culture. You start claiming you're Hawaiian and you could get the shit beat out of you.

Featured Life Question: Do You Do Your Research?

nobody@vox.com(Xeyli) — Fri, 10 Oct 2008 10:30:01 -1000

When making an expensive technology purchase, what is your researching/buying process like?
Sponsored by Best Buy.

Usually I will look for reviews on either CNET.com or I'll go to the particular product's home page. So, when I was looking for my Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX100, I went to the Panasonic Website to compare the different models. When my mom wanted to buy a new camera, we read some revies on CNET.

QotW: All in a Day's Work

nobody@vox.com(Xeyli) — Tue, 07 Oct 2008 10:55:24 -1000

Tina Fey and the SNL writing team have been having a field day with Sarah Palin. Rumor has it that Palin may make a guest appearance on the show, do you think that is a good idea?

Normally, I really like it when a celebrity can make fun of themselves. Examples include William Shatner, Adam West, etc. Sarah Palin is trying to win voters... and if her intention on SNL is to poke fun at herself, I don't think that's going to work for her. She should stick to the fun-poking if she doesn't win and only after the Election.
