Insane Random Ramblings

I’m usually so bored at work that all I do is surf the internet for the part of the day. I have work to do but in-between the work I look around. Of course, all of the good sites are blocked.

All sites like MySpace and FaceBook are automatically blocked. You can’t even access some blogs. Especially if they’re Blogger or TypePad. It gets annoying what I can and can’t look at. I can surf for auto insurance but I can’t read financial news. It’s not like I can complain though. I should be working and not surfing. But when there’s nothing to do I can’t find any good sites to read.

I just wish my job wasn’t so boring that I had time to surf. Then again I shouldn’t complain. I could be so busy that I didn’t get my work done everyday. Which wouldn’t be a good thing either. Heck I’m just happy that I have a job!

I think StumbleUpon is a great idea. You stumble a site or an article to get it noticed. It’s a great traffic generator and you learn about some neat sites along the way. The problem is that some people are stumbling every single article they write.

Some examples of not stumble worthy articles are 1.My cat yakked on the carpet last night, 2. I have the greatest cat/dog in the world, 3. I used New York movers to move 3 blocks. 4. We had pizza for dinner last night, 5. Hey, I cooked a pot roast.

Of course, all of the titles above are made-up but you get the idea. You’re supposed to get your best articles stumbled so people see your best work and want to come back. Would you really want to visit a site again after reading about cat yak if that’s supposed to be their best article? My guess is not unless you just happen to love reading about cat yak.

Pretty soon every sploggy site on the internet will have all of their articles stumbled and that will be a shame because then nobody will trust the site anymore. Then everybody loses with what started as a great idea.

The managers at my job are in meetings all day long. Some days they will have 6 hours or more of meetings. I could probably count on 1 hand the number of times my manager had no meetings scheduled for a particular day.

I would make a horrible manager because I always fall asleep in our meetings. And I usually sit right in the front.

I found this sports-related site written by all women. I swear it seems like there are 20 of them but there are around 6 or 7. The site is informative and well-run.

Anything that pertains to the Steelers or Phillies gets my immediate attention. This article really caught my attention. Hubba Hubba look at those Phils.  Any man in a suit is hot, but a group of guys in suits. Wooo lordy!

Check out the Hump Day Hottie post. There are some mighty fine men on that page! I hope you enjoy it as much as I did and still am!
