I'm sick of all these damn hurricanes, honey. Where else can we live?
I want to get as far away from this place as possible. How about Washington?
Works for me, let's go!

Well, it looks like the lawsuit is going forward. Progressive has been unable to convince the other party that suing me is a bad idea. Damnit. (On a related note, I found out that in Nevada, the maximum you can sue for in small claims court is $9000 instead of $2000. WTF!)
Also, a co-worker suggested something that makes a lot of sense (and could have possibly avoided this lawsuit), so I followed his suggestion: Go down to the store and buy 2 disposable cameras NOW. Make sure they have flashes (accidents can happen at night, you know), don't get the cheapest ones, and look at the expiration date; they should last about 1.5-2 years wrapped up. Keep them in your glove compartment. Even if the accident is your fault, take pictures of both cars anyways; this will help things like "a small scratch" turning into "half my car is missing" when the other party files an insurance claim.

quitmeter.com went dead a couple days after I posted this entry, so I decided to make my own site.

You doubt my raw coolness?

Occasionally, I post answers for the Internet Oracle, but unfortunately, I have yet to have any of my answers selected for the digest. This recent one I was quite proud of:
Supplication:
I'm having trouble remembering the answers you've supplied for most of my last 58 supplications. Can you give me some hints?
Response:
1) Yes.
2) Chile.
3) I really wouldn't trust a chainsaw-weilding midget.
4) I told you not to trust that midget. You may want to go to an ER now.
5) Sorry, the Oracle is sleepy now. Ask again tomorow.
6) You can't go wrong with Spamburgers(TM).
7) ... and that's how asbestos-laced panties saved Spring Break.
8) The Kia Sorento is best in its class for performance, features and safety.
9) A rooster, a 9-volt battery, and plenty of blue duct tape.
10) Why yes, my refrigerator is running.
11) I'm sorry, to answer that question, I must charge you a $100/hour consulting rate.
12) Yet if you were to shoot him, YOU'D be the one going to jail. Pity.
13) That scene was in the Girls Gone Wild series. Specifically, GGW Road Trip to Sioux City Volume 6.
14) Neutered puppies.
(Answers 15 though 55 were destroyed by hurricane Ivan.)
56) Purple boxers.
57) Yes, I like them very much.
58) I assumed you mean "my last 58 supplications, not counting the one I am writing now." Otherwise, I would have to begin all over again, and this response would turn into an endless loop, destroying the space-time continuum in the process.
You owe the Oracle a VHS tape of any of the 67 "Family Ties" clip shows.

5 minutes into browsing iTunes Music Store tonight and I end up at "jwz's recommendations". (through Oingo Boingo if you're curious)
On a related note, iTMS needs to have a "I'll buy this when I have more money" personal queue.

Sky Captain was great. The bluescreen method they used made for a very interesting look. Acting was slightly over-the-top and the plot was cheesy, but that was the point if you realize they were playing on 1930s comic books. Though if you go just for Angelina Jolie, you're in for an upset; her footage in the trailers account for about 95% of her screentime in the movie.
Shaun of the Dead next week. Mmmmmm, zombies....
