A few years ago, the accounting club went on a field trip to Payless Shoes and they were talking about how Payless owned the trademark for American Eagle shoes. They were getting ready to start marketing shoes with that brand name, and I thought, wow that sounds like a lawsuit waiting to happen. Well, it took a few years, but here it is. Maybe I should quit my day job and become a psychic. I'm going to need my visions to come true faster, though.

While I am at it ...
Have you ever noticed that places seems bigger when you were smaller. Well I few summers back the family took a trip to the one room school I went too as a grade schooler. While I as there I took the chance to do something I could of never done back then, grab the rim. Note the rim is now bent down so had it not been for that I might of still not been able to grab it. Anyway, I did get it, but I had not planned it out so well as you might see.
Paul's Sidewalk View
So I was looking over some of the videos I have taken with my camera and found one I thought I could post about. It is nothing great. Just my attempt of recording a video while riding a bike. I am calling it "sidewalk view", because it is like Google's street view on a bike. This made me think I should get an eight way camera and do just that. Except I don't want to be sued.
Anyway here is 22Mb of junk to let Google backup forever.
P.S. I also found FHSU has a youtube channel thing, seems like a lot of tablet propaganda.

Free Army Advertisement Music
There's a great series of TV ads that the Army shows. What makes them great for me is the inspiring symphonic goodness playing as the action goes on.
It turns out the song is called "Army Strong" and it is freely available for downloading at the United States Army Bands MySpace page if you have an account set up with MySpace. If you don't want the hassle of that, you can also download the mp4 at the U.S. Army Field Bands Listening Room. But don't let them con you into getting QuickTime just so you can play the song. (It is official: QuickTime is now higher up on my devil list than MySpace). Just use VLC and don't regret a thing, since it already comes with all the codecs it needs.
On a side note, you might wonder why QuickTime is ranked higher on the "things-I-hate" list. It is simple. If I need a MySpace account, I can use a throwaway email address to get what I need and am then done. QuickTime, on the otherhand, would have to be installed on my machine, and I've had it up to HERE [raises hand to neck level] with it asking me to buy QuickTime Pro.
