Save webpages for ever

Posted by Lifecruiser in Useful

“hanzo:web is a new service that enables you to save and archive web pages, collections of linked pages and even whole sites on the web. The beauty of this tool is that you can access and browse these pages or sites even when the original site ceases to exist”.

Click here to go to Hanzo:web

NOTE: Web pages content can be BIG, so be careful with the option to save hole web sites if you only have the Free version with 100 MB/month…

It would be nice to save our old websites/blogs there. Hm, or maybe not….? How ever, it would be nice to save some really special websites there.

Not ours then :-)

Order me to go to bed

Posted by Lifecruiser in Odditys
Mrs Lifecruiser going to bed

We have some big difficulties to get in bed in time. I don’t know what it is. We are not trying to beat our earlier staying awake record, we just don’t seem to be tired in the right time.

Or maybe we still are in the U.S time, even if it was 3 months since we were over there.

Yesterday morning (?) we went to bed at seven o’clock am and that was early! The night before that we went to bed nine o’clock in the morning, so that’s a big improvement, won’t you say?

The biggest problem with getting to bed in the mornings, is that we try and try and try to get up when it’s still daytime, so we have an alarmclock set. Which is totally not needed, because neither of us hear it anyway, we just keep on with our sweet beuty sleep.

Earlier this week we woke up at 5:22 pm and couldn’t do the things we had in mind for that day. Not everything can be done during evenings, that’s very strange do we think.

Right this moment it’s 3:40 am, so now I desperate need some one to ORDER me to go to bed, because we have a birthday party to attend in the afternoon and we are a little bit worried that we shall over sleep it.

And if I go to bed, Mr Lifecruiser is going to follow me of course. Especielly since I’m looking so stunning at this time.

Please order me to bed some one…

Will I live to be 80?

Posted by Lifecruiser in Odditys

I recently picked a new primary care physician. After two visits exhaustive lab tests, he said I was doing “fairly well for my age”.

A little concerned about that comment, I couldn’t resist asking him:
“Do you think I’ll live to be 80?”
He asked, “Well, do you smoke tobacco or drink beer/wine?”
“Oh no,” I replied. “I’m not doing either.”
Then he asked, “Do you eat rib-eye steaks and barbecued ribs?”
I said, “No, my other Doctor said that all red meat is very unhealthy!”
“Do you spend a lot of time in the sun, like playing golf, sailing, hiking, or bicycling?”
No, I don’t,” I said.
He asked, “Do you gamble, drive fast cars, or have a lot of sex?”
“No,” I said. “I don’t do any of those things.”

He looked at me and said, “Then why do you give a shit if you live to be 80?”

Leg sideburns or moustaches

Posted by Lifecruiser in Odditys

Just a short report on how it’s going with our non-cutting hair business because of the hibernation we are in.

I guess you’re not surprised when we say that neither one of us have had a haircut yet. It just don’t seems necessary when you hardly ever goes out among people. For gods sake, it’s snowing ouside and is very very disguistingly cold! Have some mercy with us.

Of course, Mr Lifecruiser is in a worse condition than I am, because he has more beard than I have. He still hasn’t decided what style he shall choose, remember our earlier post about growing a beard or a moustache?

Soon I too have to decide that, but on my legs, I’m afraid of getting sideburns. Ever heard of legmoustaches or legbeard? Maybe I’ll start a new trend here.

I think Mr Lifecruiser is starting to have nightmares about going to the barber…..

In Memoriam for our pet Dusty

Posted by Lifecruiser in Odditys, Pets

With a major grief in our hearts, we have to announce that one of our other pets has gone to heaven.

He had been with us for a long time now and has been a good pet, nothing bad can be said about him. He had a quiet personality and kept for himself in the corners mostly.

He was rather grey and soft. Ok, he had kind of a bad hairday every day, but that was just cute…

I can feel the tears in my eyes now, remembering the good times with him.

In memoriam for Dusty, our beloved friend:

Our friendship was like a sneeze
We couldn’t hold it
Smell it
Taste it
or know it’s coming
But we could always feel it
under our feet
It did come and go
but we always knew it’ll always be back

* Poem originally by Terri Fanning, rewritten by Lifecruiser

Lifecruiser pet Dusty, the dust rat

Death cause: Eaten alive by our other pet, the evil dustbuster, which we are NOT going to show here, because he is so horrifying so we keep him hidden in the closet and hardly ever let him out. We just can’t handle him.

Our new net pet Basil

Posted by Lifecruiser in Odditys, Pets

Let us introduce our new pet Basil. He came to our home for about a week ago. He just sort of moved in, I suppose he really likes us.

He is dark and handsome, always want to be in the heat of the stage lights, running around a lot, seems a little bit restless and is climbing the walls all the time. He even goes to the roof, over what we do not know. That is how he got his name, after the nervous wreck Basil in Fawlty Towers.

We do not think that it is something we do that is making him upset, because he is very social and wants to be around us all the time, moving from room to room along with us.

Except from today when he seems to be in play mood, he is playing hide and seek with us.

He lived in the bathroom for the first week, just to make sure that he was house-trained properly before we let him out in the rest of our apartment. He only left one stack after him in there.

He has similar interests as us, he likes to be out on the net very often.

I am sure that we have a lot of food for him, but I tell you this:

- If he gets too big, fat and disguisting we will kill him instantly on the spot. There are always some other pet to get instead.

We do not know what species he is though, so lets just say spider.

Love or milk

Posted by Lifecruiser in Love, Wise words

“When you are in Love, you can not drink milk for five days.”

[ Simon, 8 year ]

That statement makes me wonder:

1. Doesn’t love last for longer than five days?
2. As I am a hedgehog I shouldn’t drink milk at all - how would I know that I’m still in love then?

Please feel free to answer my questions - if you can!

Keyword search in searchengines

Posted by Lifecruiser in Odditys

If I’m bored I can read the statistics for this blog, especielly the keywords used from the searchengines that make people come over here.

My absolute favourite one so far is:
- how to get rid of crazy wife (sometimes I suspect that maybe Mr Lifecruiser has done that search…????)

Another one that is very suitable this cold time of year is:
- cold enough to decorate boobs (That one actually makes me wonder if I have missed something, decorate boobs…?)

And what about this really interesting one:
- humping avatars (I’d like to see one for my self!)

This one make me feel somehow de-pressed:
- pressed boobs

A touching one:
- people try to touch my boobs a lot (Is she sure? Maybe they are so big that they just get in the way for people?)

And the batman enthusiast:
- la voiture de batman bikinis (Should this one not say batwomen bikini? Have I missed something here too?)

Event Calendar for your blog

Posted by Lifecruiser in Useful

This is a cool tool for the busy ones who has a slight case of altzheimers or dementia (or bad cases like us).

If you publish the Calendar badge on your blog, you get a lot of help from other people reading it and reminding you. If it is stuff you want to be reminded of, of course. Do not write about embarrassing things there. Or, come to think about it: please do that!

You can share calendar with a bunch of people, for example, the other maniacs you fool around with.

There is the option to mark the event as private or public, but we prefer if you do not mark all the naughty stuff you write there as private ;-) Do not be stingy, share your most private details with every one on the hole world wide web. Exciting yes?

There is a widget for your own computers desktop too, so you can sit in piece and quiet and write down everything nice that is happening in your life. Or nothing if you having a boring life. Then another feature is very helpful - when you are out surfing and see some cool event on other sites, you can add that to your calendar.

One of the most useful feature is that you can choose to be reminded by email for important events - if you remember to click that choice….

All your fans can subscribe to your Calendar with rss-feed. Need we say more?

All this fabulous stuff and more (for free!) with the excellent CalendarHub!!!

You can se how the badge is looking in the sidebar to the right of this page, between Categories and Monthly. If you click on the headline in the badge (Events), you can have a look at our calendar.

NOTE: It is a BETA-version, still improvements needed, but hey, it is free….
