The 5:20 Funny Podcast

Every day at 5:20pm on 103.7 The Mountain they play a comedy clip and they call it the ’5:20 Funny’. I always enjoy listening to it when I’m driving home from work. The other day Marty Riemer mentioned that he puts the mp3 of the clip up on their website for download. So I decided to scrape the site and make a podcast of the show! It’s working pretty great, if you subscribe to it and see anything weird or have any other ideas please feel free to let me know. The podcast feed can be found at:

Enjoy!
*Update* – This stopped working and I don’t have time to fix it. Sorry.
Buggin’
In an effort to get myself a MacBook Pro I’ve been working on my Volkswagen Beetle that has been in the garage a few years. I restored it in High School and it was quite a project. I lifted the body off of the pan, replaced the rusted out floorboards with new ones, added new seals, carpeting, headliner, fenders, etc. But lately my problem has been with the carb. It took me a few days to figure out what the problem was. Turns out it was this tiny little brass tube that was connected to the accelerator pump that was all clogged up. Jamming a sewing needle up in it and wiggling all the gunk out solved the problem! As you can see from the movie, she’s running great! Sarah and I took a drive and it was really fun! Now that it works again I’m starting to think that I shouldn’t sell it… hmmmmmm
MacSaber
People ask me why I like Macs so much. There are many reasons, but here’s an important one: the MacSaber!.
There’s a video of it in action here.
MAME on iPod Video/Nano

Some smart folks have come up with a great idea! They’ve hacked the iPod to run MAME. A group of people have been working on getting linux to run on our devices for a while, and iPodMAME has been released as a result of that. If they get 1942 to work, I’ll be ecstatic! (geek snort)
p.s. The picture is sideways because that’s how it is on the iPod, you actually play holding the iPod more like a game controller!
