Veggie Grill

V-Burger and KaleI’ve been visiting a new restaurant near UCI before my ASP.Net class. It is called the Veggie Grill. So far I have tried the fried chicken sandwich, its not really chicken since this is a vegetarian place. I also tried the V-Buger which is a vegetarian burger. It is really good. The meal comes with coleslaw, but since I’ve never been a fan of coleslaw I always ask to substitute something else. Their choices for subsitutes are: sweet potatoe fries, smokin’ kale and a side salad. I have tried all the options and like the kale the best. I actually had that tonight (pictured).

E-mail inventor: I didn’t foresee spam – Times Online

“…at around 7pm one autumn evening in 1971, the first message using Mr Tomlinson’s fledgling software, known then as the ‘Send Message Program’, travelled the short distance of a metre from one computer to a neighbouring machine, and electronic mail was born.”

Cool!

Member of the Month at the Gym

Member of the MonthSo what happens when you get member of the month at my work gym?  They take pictures of you working out on a machine (in your work clothes) and plaster it all over the gym.  This accomplishes two things:  1) Makes member horribly self conscious by posting their ugly mug all over the place, and 2) Now other members can tell you to “push it”, “work it”, “keep it up” or other encouraging words and they don’t even have to know your name.

But I did get a free t-shirt.

Rate-My-Cop: New Website Has Police Furious

Police agencies from coast to coast are furious with a new website on the internet. RateMyCop.com has the names of thousands of officers, and many believe it is putting them in danger.

Comment from Digger:
“Easy response. If such a site is “dangerous” to cops then a similar site listing people with their crimes and MUCH more information is equally dangerous and unfair. You can’t have your cake and eat it too. I actually dare them to take this to court and all the way to the Supreme Court. It’ll be interesting to see the outcome and how it affects sites run by the police.”

Interesting indeed!
