When checking the new 4G coverage that was just brought to life in the Greater Cleveland area, I noticed something not quite right about the city names…

Sprint 4G Coverage Map showing Will-O-Bee

Given that some of those shown on the map are region names as opposed to city names (IE: West Mentor, Chagrin Harbor, Salida Beach), they are at least spelled correctly. While it may be pronounced Will-O-Bee, it should be spelled “Willoughby” as we are not in grade school. I’m assuming the term “On The Lake” refers to the community of Mentor On The Lake. So at the very least it should spell out “Willoughby On The Lake”.

Come on, Sprint! Get your act together. Staff your PR Departments with more Spelling Bee champions.

I bought a couple of Western Digital hard drives this weekend. Registering them is important in order to claim the warranty they come with. Unfortunately, registering anything basically means that you submit yourself to a small survey.

You get ask the usual questions about where you found the product, did you research the product, where did you buy the product, etc. Then there’s the list of rateable items where you choose how strongly you feel about them, such as, how you you value customer reviews of the product, professional reviews, included software, etc. Last are the demographic questions about you explaining how technically proficient you think you are, your age, your annual income, etc. It was the annual income question which amused me the most:

There at the bottom, one can choose “None of your business“. Not “Prefer not to say” or “Decline to comment” but rather to the point.

It made me laugh. The little things always do.

Our players have so much cash, they don’t know where to put it.

Union official tells players to stash some cash in case of work stoppage: Cleveland Cavaliers Insider: Players Ass... http://bit.ly/9luhZA

So, is it a player who’s an ass, or is it the player’s ass where they should stash their cash?

I’ve got my Google Reader actively aggregating a number of RSS feeds including many humorous ones. The latest is Comixed.com that showcases Yonkoma styled comical strips. Imagine the daily comics section of the newspaper done with photographs of people arranged and captioned to tell a joke or to depict a funny scene.

What follows is today’s addition. It was the best way to end a rather miserable work day.

Titled: At First I Was Like…

I don’t even want to know, but there’s over 3,000,000 results for it.

I went hunting for video clips on Youtube tonight. It started with watching clips of LeBron James making basketball look like child’s play and ended up with some of David Letterman’s Top Ten Lists. On a whim, I clicked on the link for the following video. It’s been a while since I laughed so hard at the suble humor involved.

The people known for the LOLCats at ICanHasCheezburger.com have a string of comedic sites within their so-called Cheezburger Network. One that I enjoy most is the TotallyLooksLike.com that shows a comparison between two objects or people or both. Once in a while the comparison could be questionable but most are dead on, even humorous. Take for instance the comparison of the International Space Station and a Tie Fighter.

That’s hilarious.

xkcd hits home, again.

Ring-riiiiing!

Don’t watch this video while on the job, in a church, surrounded by children, or the like. Ryan Sohmer of Least I Could Do states that this short touches on some delicate subject matter and continues with:

There is coarse language (a lot of it). There is sexual content (even more). I can almost guarantee that there will be more than one WTF moment.

If you’re like me, you will get a laugh out of it. Find some alone time, hit play, sit back and enjoy.
