Funny thing actually, since people here like the woot shirt. It is uberleet, I try to not let it go to my head. I ordered 3 woot hats during the last wootoff, and they were missing from my shipment, so I emailed them basically saying "wtf, mate?" And here's the email I got back.

Good news and bad news.. Bad News: We counted our Woot T-shirts as hats. Apparently we can't tell the difference.. Good News: The hats should be here by the end of the week or beginning of next. Since we can't tell the difference we are going to include a Woot T-shirt for each hat ordered. You ordered 3 hats, you will also received 3 Woot T-shirts free.

Sorry for the inconvenience. Solais Woot.com!

"Fucking kangaroos!" Ah woot, still as funny and charming as the day I met ya....


Anyways, so aparently that means I have 3 woot hats and 3 woot shirts coming to me.

Now contrary to popular belief (and photographic evdience), I only have 1 head and the ability to wear 1 woot hat at a time. Why then you may ask did I buy 3 woot hats?

I will give you a simple math equation, see if you can figure it out:

Woot = crack

Upon checking again, I should also note that I have a single torso, so while making multiple woot shirt use techinically possible, it would be redundant. And everyone knows that 3 or greater woots = a n00b

So I now have the dilema as to finding homes for 2 woot shirts and 2 woot hats.

I'm looking for a fair [bribes] way to give them out to deserving [brownnose] hiptop/sidekick users[nosausage].

=)

Seriously though, I'll probably be hooking up hiptophunt with at least 1 for a prize if they are interested. I should really sell the others in vegas @ defcon in july.

Anyways, until I think of something else to do with them, peace out.

After dealing with traffic that could only be described as shitty. Including 90 minutes to go <15 miles right before I-80. I'm really hating indiana / ohio traffic.

Flash foward 10 hours, 1 tank of gas, miles of road construction, a car vs motorcycle accident, several tickets for state turnpikes, 3 tacos and a rhodiola later, I'm checking into our hotel at the studio suites in dayton.

Ohio is eastern time so we arrive at 1am, and have to get the key from an automated lock box. I find the box with a sticker with my first name on it. I know my last name there for am able press the first 3 ketters to open the box and get my key and room information.

I found the room and was pretty happy.

I booked this for $27 a night on hotwire.

Extended stay america hotel, full kitchenette (fridge+microwave+coffeemaker+stove) First cup of coffee is free too. Bonus! The vending machine is selling cups of dried ramen noodles too....it's almost like home!

Not too bad. I'm impressed. 2 nights < $70 including tax.

Now, I have to be up at 7am ( < 6 hrs ) to goto the Hamvention.

More updates later....or apathy...tune in later to find out.
