Bathroom Awesomeness


I was recently at my grandmother's country club in Los Angeles where I saw what could be quite possibly the most amazing invention since uncrustables. If you are like me and you hate using those weak eco-friendly, air hand dryers, then you will LOVE this new hand dryer. It was created, no wonder its so awesome, by Dyson. Basically what you do is you stick your hands in these slots and a sensor is activated. Shooting out room temperature air at a whopping 400 MPH, the Dyson Airblade takes merely seconds to dry your hands to an almost perfect dryness. After you stick your hands into the drying device, you slowly pull your hands back out and the air acts as a squeegee wiping the water off your hands. They say that it takes about 10 seconds to dry your hands. After seeing this sweet dryer, I wanted to test a normal dryer to see how long it took. The specific one i tried was at the Laguna Hills Mall. After pushing the button multiple times, my hands were dry in just a shade under a minute (54 seconds). So, the Dyson being 5X faster has definitely won me over as one of the best bathroom features around!

I'm Back!

After taking a short time off, my bro Taffy has slapped me around and I have seen the light.

On Saturday I had a chance to join our Droopy's (junior high small group) for a round of bowling. As everyone was preparing for a fun-filled hour of bowling, one of the Droopy's who we call "Virus" comes running in like he had just won a million bucks. Before we could ask he starts shouting that he just won an iPod nano from a $1 arcade game.

Can I say what the crap? What happened to things like stuffed animals or basketballs??? iPod Nano? Really? Anyway, he was excited and didn't really care about bowling after that. I am pretty sure it showed when at one point, after spinning in circles, he managed to throw his bowling ball across his lane into the lane next to his.

Another funny part to the story is that when Virus was passing his new toy around, one of the girls said, "Oh, it's only a 2 Gig. It's not even a 4." Wow! I'm pretty sure it is still a nano! Anyway It was a fun time, its too bad i couldnt stay the whole time.
