In his toodles? eeeh...ouch!
Max passed me this today and I thought it would be a good "video of the day".
PharrOut ® now a registerd trademark!
Today our trademark on our name went through! I filed it last march and amazingly enough, I had no trouble getting a service mark. And now that its official, we can "legally" put on the ® mark whenever we write PharrOut! woo!

Holy Crap, Cheap Gas!
I just went over to Target off of Forest Hill Ave today and was coming back to get on 150 and BAM! cheap gas (well cheaper than normal) - The picture tells it all!
All on the way home!
So I have been meaning to write this for about, two days. And I just haven't had time. Now that I am home alone with the baby crying in the crib, I can finally sit down and write.
Where I was
So I was on my way home from work, and I'm on powhite pkwy coming to the southside. I have my dad's truck...
Event 1
and I have my smart tag and I am being one of those people that have to hold it up under my rear-view mirror while going under the toll. Unforunately the last toll I was at the bar never went up. So I hit it. heh. So if you were traveling to the southside and were able to speed through the toll booth, you can thank me, becuase I was the one that broke the bar! Then ..
Event 2
I am traveling down hull street. If you are familiar with where Bliley's and Wendy's is on hull street you now have a picture, if not you can see my illustration below. There are 3 lanes of traffic, it's 5:00 - so its pretty busy. This one SUV decided that he wanted to turn right, into the Wendy's, from the far left lane. Since there was so much traffic, he decided to go ahead and stop, turn on his right turn signal and try to cross two lanes in 5:00 traffic -- all for a biggie fry. Amazing. Then...
Event 3
I was just a little bit further down hull street, and this van behind me with three women (no, I'm not about to be sexist) had one talking on the cell phone (the driver), a woman in the "middle" backseat obviously ticked off about something and her mouth going about a mile a minute with her hands swinging all around, and when I say all around the passenger seat woman, probably had to duck out of the way a couple times as to not get slapped up side the head. I'm sure the recipient on the other end of the cellphone enjoyed the screaming.
Then I got home. Wow, what a ride!
Yay for oil!!
Industry closes in on new oil source in Gulf of Mexico
The oil industry is on the verge of cracking open a deep-water region in the Gulf of Mexico that could become the biggest new domestic source of oil in the United States since the discovery of Alaska's North Slope more than a generation ago, The Wall Street Journal reported Tuesday.
Read the Article
Question(s): Does this mean gas will go down (eventually)? Does this mean that we will be paying higher taxes for them get the oil out so we can pay lower prices? Does this really mean ANYTHING?
