Son of a bitch. I just realized there’s additional commentary in the title attribute of every image.

Two-Thousand!
This is my new toy:
It’s a 2003 S2000 with 49k miles. Many thanks to my wife who let me buy it even though she thinks convertibles are stupid.
Seven!
Thanks, F-Train. But I noticed one of the things missing from your list of seven things about you was the origin of Asphynxma.
Moving on…
1. Whenever we passed a 7-Eleven in the car, my brother used to announce that he was going to say “Seven” to mark the occasion. Upon hearing this, I would shout “Seven!” to my great amusement and his great distress. I still take pleasure in the psychological suffering of others today.
2. I was student body president of my elementary school. I did not use the veto or pardon powers one might associate with the office.
3. I went to Beverly Hills High School, but never had the opportunity to bitch-slap neither Brenda nor Brendon, as they were fictional characters. Nor did I stalk Angelina Jolie Voight, whom I have recently concluded is a fictional character in her own right.
4. I wasted most of my college years online figuring out this Internet-thingy. All of my real jobs are a direct result of that time-wasting. Now I help today’s college kids to waste time looking at girls online. I expect that in ten years the most prolific pornographers and Peeping Toms will owe me some thanks, and a few photos.
5. The Internet wasn’t the reason I was suspended from college my senior year, but it did give me something to do.
6. I’ve taken the MCAT, LSAT, and GMAT, and applied to medical school, law school, and business school, but I am not a doctor, laywer, nor douchebag. Okay, maybe I am the latter, but I didn’t learn it in school for $40k a year!
7. I think MySpace sucks. My job is to make it suck less.
And I tag…
Because they are either mysterious, secretive, or infrequent posters (thus ending this tagging nonsense).
And…
Because he still reminds me of Robert Wagner.
And finally…
Because her writing makes me happy.
Check your credit report for free
Recently, I’ve noticed ads on the Internet and on TV about getting your free credit report, but usually there’s an asterisk saying something about having to sign up with some service or purchase some product. That’s not exactly free, is it?*
Anyway, you might recall I’d posted about being able to check your credit report for free once a year. What I said was a little misleading. You can check your credit report at each of the three credit reporting agencies for free once a year. Since they are more or less going to be the same, you can actually choose to check your credit report from a different agency every four months. Or you might still want to get all three at once just to compare them to one another.
Don’t forget that if you’re ever turned down because of your credit history, you have the right to request your credit report for free. This happens every time I try to finance that Ferrari.
