Hiya, let's have a bit of a state of the eris entry, shall we?

I've been friendsonly a lot recently and there's not always a logical reason to it. Well there's always an erislogical reason for it. So for those who only read public posts and mostly general updates for MeOfTheFuture, here's some of what's been going on.

I've been working my butt off at ChaCha.com which is a people-powered mobile search engine. You text in any question to chacha(242242), and first it goes to a middleman (I'M ONE OF THOSE) who fix your stupid typos and txt spk, and choose which category the subject matter of your question belongs on. And then it goes to a answerer, preferably one who knows a lot about the subject area of your query. They find the answer and send it back to your fon, often with a bit of funny if it is appropriate or fits.

You don't get charged unless your mobile plan doesn't give you free texts, then it's just your regular text charges from your plan, ChaCha doesn't charge anything. If you're in a targeted advertisement area you will often get an ad response to your query as well as your answer, but I don't think they sent any ads at any other time, no spam. Only in addition to a question response. I text in all the time, usually silly stuff and/or asking for whatever information I'm wondering about at the moment and I've never gotten any advert texts yet. But I have unlimited text messaging.

So if you're interested in earning some ChaCha pennies I'm sure you can figure out the url without there being any clicky and find the link on the site to apply. If you want my referral info or any other specific information from me, you'll have to ask me directly. LiveJournal seems to frown on anything that appears to be soliciting for moneymaking referrals.

So, I've been half-watching a lot of TV while trying to reach X amount of money before the ChaCha pay period ended (last night/today). I have a serious love/HATE relationship with TV adverts, and I don't particularly care for the smugness of the Mac vs PC ads, but "I'm a Mac / I'm a Delicious Pizza." really entertained me. As well as the Silence the stain ad I posted earlier. But the Gates/Seinfeld spots are uncomfortably recockulous and can just go away, please.

Also caught ScIQ Sundays on the Discovery channel yesterday and I very much enjoyed it.

Caught the "VMA remix" on MTV earlier and was quite impressed with several of the performances.
It's nice to see Kid Rock performing again instead of being random drama whore. I'm not always in the mood for his musical style or always care for it, but I like what he does, musically. If that makes any sense.

Christiana put on an almost early Madonna worthy-show. So much for crazy Brit being the heir apparent to that throne. Again I don't always care for what xtina DOES with her talent, but I think she's hugely talented and seems very in control of her career and life.

After weeks of middlemaning Jonas Brothers questions through ChaCha I unfortunately actually got to see what the hell they were. And WTF seriously? I fear the generation of girls obsessed with the purity brothers are going to turn into faghags. At least maybe that'll thin the herd a bit.

Speaking of an obvious non heir apparent to the Madonna throne; What the hell is a Katy Perry? Was there an unfilled vapid quota in the pop world(A: probably and/or always)? Has she eaten a sandwich THIS YEAR? And who's bright idea was it to let Queen TrendyBi cover Like A Virgin?

And final WTF of the VMAs. Kanye Jesus West. I really enjoyed his performance and song, and was very annoyed that I did. It reminded me of Seal, I like Seal. Stupid Kanye, go back to doing shit like Golddigger and stay away from my area.

THERE IS A MAN
IN A FLOWERY BANANA HAMMOCK
WITH POSSIBLY A THONG BACK
OUTSIDE MY DOOR BY THE POOL

I decided to walk over to the corner store, because for some reason 97 degrees didn't SOUND hot. Ugh.

Anyway, I almost got caught by a pair of mormons on bikes, I kept my distance and zoomed in to get their picture. Though they look like some sort of four legged monster from this view.



WE ARE LEHI, RESISTANCE IS FUTILE.
