Latest map of the playing field at Weaver Combat Ranch

By , December 4, 2006 10:39 pm

For anyone interested in the latest and greatest map with pix it’s located at http://combatranch.technoprimitive.org/wp/map.html.  Be warned if you use Safari or Konqueror that it WILL crash your browser.  Firefox/Seamonkey, Opera, and IE (shutter) all work fine.  No idea what the problem is but suspect it is a Java related bug.  Not sure if it is in my code or the google API but will keep working on it to see if I can figure it out.

Damn big elephant…

After you have made a purchase, collected your bags, or packed everything into a shopping cart, you head for the exit. Just as you approach freedom an alarm sounds (usually a sequence of ugly, electronic grunts) and a robotic voice (always female) announces: “Please return to the checkout.” Other customers immediately look in your direction, and an employee begins to approach you. What’s your next move?

Tell them to stuff it and walk out!  I love it!  Well worth the read.  Thanks go to Steve for the link.
