I can hear everything

By raishad | Published: March 31, 2006

If you haven’t had your ears suctioned, stop this minute and head to your local otolaryngologist and have it done. It was an amazing experience. He used his Suck-O-Matic 3000 and sucked up all the ear wax that was making me deaf in my left ear. When the wax was clear, it felt like I [...]

I <3 Fareed

By raishad | Published: March 29, 2006

Have I mentioned lately how much I love Fareed Zakaria? He’s by far my favorite regular guest on The Daily Show. The things he says, he should get a medal. He’s just so well-spoken. I should really try to catch his own show, Foreign Exchange. Fareed Zakaria, will you marry me? If not, can we [...]

Yes, we’ve all heard the # blade jokes

By raishad | Published: March 22, 2006

The Gilette Fusion is a waste of money. It offers no real advantage over the Schick Quattro, other than the single blade on the back of the head. In terms of “Shaving Excellence”, 5 blades aren’t better than 4. You’d figure since you’re paying a gajillion dollars for the blades, they’d be awesomer, but they’re [...]

I’ve got 9000 friends, yea, on MySpace

By raishad | Published: March 19, 2006

MySpace is exploding. Seems everyone and their cousin are joining MySpace. And as soon as they finish their profile, they’re finding me and I get emails with subjects like “_____ would like to be added to as one of your friends”. Essentially forcing me to log in and accept their request. Otherwise, I look like [...]

Also, first YouTube video I’ve posted. I think that officially makes me part of the Web 2.0. I’m sorry.

Notes of a RAV4

By raishad | Published: March 15, 2006

It’s been a little over a week since the RAV4 rolled out of Don Davis Toyota and into my heart. One word, splendiferous. Absolutely splendiferous. I do have a few complaints though, and I’ll address them first. The wheel cover. The wheel cover is a pain in the ass to get off and put back [...]

When it comes to lunch at UTA, the place to go is SomethingZone (the name escapes me). It’s that place by Montague’s Deli that’s not Pizza Hut. When I was an undergrad, way back in 2005, the wraps that the salad place maked were amazing. They were the size of a small dog, and on [...]

Well, you shall not have been mortally wounded in vain!

By raishad | Published: March 5, 2006

The Taurus is on the way out. The final nail in the coffin was the camshaft position sensor and synchronizer. Last Friday, the check engine light came on. After needlessly spending $89 on City Garage to diagnose the problem, I found out Autozone would read the code for free. So on Sunday, my dad took [...]
