“For all intensive purposes…”

,

Hold up, did I just see that phrase used seriously? Seriously?! “For all intensive purposes” – you know you’re in trouble when the Urban Dictionary has a definition.

Nonsense, it means nothing. Its what people say when they really mean to say “for all intents and purposes”.

Should I even care this erroneous phrase was used? It’s just a mute point right? 😉

Holiday Gift Guide: Hot Wheels Total Control Racer

, , , ,

In case you get the Hot Wheels Total Control Racing Stunt Park set, it comes with only one vehicle, and you’ll definitely need another to keep the peace with the kids. Finding the Racing Stunt Park on-island is doable, but finding extra cars is difficult. Target is out of stock, I don’t see any on the Walmart web site, and Toys R Us looks to have one car model available.

Amazon has a variety of Total Control Racers available to purchase to make this set more fun.

Confidence Is…

, ,

Since @abaggy is temporarily out of the loop, there’s no one to mancrush on. So instead, I’m turning my attention to someone else I’ll call Q-chi. What’s so great about Q-chi? It’s his confidence. He’s so confident that he leaves his classic iPod on his desk in plain sight even when he’s not around.

This shows that he’s confident with the security in the workplace, knowing no one will steal his prize. Or, he exudes confidence that no one will ridicule his use of this archaic iPod. But hey, who am I to talk? I still rock my old fat iPod Nano and Klondike!

Amazon Prime Instant Video Disappointment

, ,

One of the draws of signing up for Amazon Prime is the free access to its catalog of streaming videos. Sadly, only after trying to troubleshoot why this wasn’t working with my Tivo box, did I find the answer. Amazon Instant instant videos don’t work with Tivo as stated in the FAQ.

At this time, Prime instant videos are only available for streaming and cannot be viewed on a TiVo box.

I’ve rented movies from Amazon in the past, and these movies have worked with my Tivo, just not these (free) Prime videos. Don’t know why, but it is disappointing.

Servco Auto Windward Has a New Waiting Room

, , , ,

If you haven’t been to the Servco Auto Windward dealership then you haven’t seen their new waiting room. The old waiting room was part of the sales area in the main building. Now, they’ve redone the neighboring Suzuki dealership building and converted that for customers.

Inside you’ll find lots of tables and chairs, restrooms, and a large screen television.

The best part is this commercial grade Keurig machine!

The next thing I hope they improve upon is these printed receipts. Can I get them electronically please? I would love an app that had a record of all the service I had done for my vehicles. I could look up past work and even get a total cost for the work performed.
