Just a regular guy on the streets, earning his keep

I was reading through my list today of "The Reasons Why Google Should Hire Me" and came to reason 243, which I thought I should share. This "reason" really wasn't a reason at all, but merely two pictures showing similarities between what Google does and what I do. I'll let the pictures do the explaining, since a picture is worth a thousand words and I don't feel like typing that much.

First, the Google picture. It is their "idea board" where they draw out crazy things and drink coffee in front of them. Very Google-esque.

Next, is my picture. This is my interpretation of how a network should be set up. It contains incredible ideas such as the toilet running Mac OS X Jaguar (which should be upgraded), a dog with an IP address, and a $50 bill running on 60 Watts. Far-fetched? Yes. Impossible? Never.

Similarities? You better believe it. The evidence speaks for itself, your honor.

If nothing else, Google needs me there to draw things on their idea board, since I do have experience. I'll take full-time duties, coming up with ideas and helping those that need to get theirs from the brain to the pen. I'll even refill the coffee cups of those who are sitting around talking and wanting more coffee.


Throught my life, the one thing that has been a constant is my love for basketball (and maybe my high hairline). It is about the only thing I could do everyday for weeks at a time and never get tired of it. I found this dunk contest video on Digg and seriously couldn't believe some of these dunks. Takes me back to the good old days when I could dunk.

Also just saw Google is serving up some web pages for people with their Pages deal. Looks nice I guess, if you're into that WYSIWYG kind of stuff. It keeps telling me I look like a spammer, though, which hurts.


search history Here's a quick look into how much I use Google. I was astonished to know I've used Google's search about 15 times per day since about April 22 of this year. What am I searching for out there? Surely I would have found it by now out of 2287 searches.

As I looked through some of my search history, I found one day where I was trying extremely hard to find the MacGyver theme song. I am thinking that's not the best use of my time. Obviously I'm using the internets to their max.
