We've all gotten harassed by telemarketers from time to time and most if not all of them know that if you ask to be removed from their "do not call list" then by law the have to. E tour and Travel out of Orlando, FL however seems to be playing by a different set of rules as well as flogging the promise of a cheap $99 Orlando vacation. They are also perhaps the rudest bunch of wankers that I've ever come across! (Note: if you have an iPhone see this article I just wrote that will show you how to block their number)
Shoot photos with iphone, upload to Flickr with Flickit, add to a FLICKR set then create a nice slideshow with PictoBrowser - simple right ??!!!
I'm helping my good friend Peggy Lloyd drum up some more business via the interwebs. Peggy, the undisputed dog walking queen of Boulder, has had her dog walking business, "It's a Dog's Life" for the past 14 years. Here's her pitch:

I just received a nasty comment on one of my videos on YouTube and boy and I mad. Well now it's time for sweet sweet justice. I don't mind constructive criticism or someone using bad language but when it's hate speech, harassment or a privacy violation I think we have a right to report the person in question and get them booted.
The following is a trip report on a mini vacation I took with my parents to Glenwood Springs on Jan 8th and 9th 2008. I'd always wanted to ride in a train across the Rockies so a trip to Glenwood Springs and back from Denver sounded like a great way to get the train experience without spending too much tom. The plan was to leave Union Station in Denver on Thursday morning on Amtrak's California Zephyr, get off at Glenwood Springs where we'd stay the night in a budget motel and come back the following afternoon via the train. My initial plan was to drive to Glenwood and let my folks ride the train, I'd stay with them in the hotel and the the following day I'd drive them back : boring!
Below is a series of videos featuring crazy Arab Driving from YouTube. Videos include driving an SUV on just two wheels, a car full of people casually drifting through rush hour traffic and some blokes skating on the public highway wearing nothing more than standard issue arab sandals! What makes these crazy examples so hoon-a-liscous is the fact that all stunts are performed on public roads!
