I have some kind of obsession with Darth Vader. I don’t even like the Star Wars movies, but I really like Darth Vader. At work, they changed my name of my phone to say ‘Darth Vader’. So when I call someone, their phone says like Darth Vader is calling them. How cool is that!

This has to be the best motorcycle photo I have ever seen. It is on an ‘04 Harley-Davidson FXST. In case you don’t know what 0341 means, 0341 is the Marine Corps MOS number for infantry mortarman.

I found this picture on ChopCult.com. You can see the guys profile here.

About 7 months ago  wrote about a Silverlight fail. I have another one for you:

What’s funny about this error message is I never installed Siverlight. How can it expire if it’s not installed? By the way, Silverlight is a FREE plugin. How does it expire to begin with?

I did a little bit of online research, and apparently it goes deeper than this. I clicked on ‘No’ when I saw the message so I can’t vouch for this. But the link that is in the error message, you can’t copy that link. So you have to type it in the address bar of the browser manually. Once you get to the page, you get the same error message and can’t update Silverlight. You have to go to the Silverlight page instead of the Silverlight update page.

So good job, Microsoft. Not doing so good when it comes to contending with Flash.
