Google is probably the leading search engine most internet users used on a daily basis, but did you know that it's loaded with pranks, goofs and add-ons?
By searching for "Google Pig Latin" you can choose to have Pig Latin Google as your home page. It's just one of dozens of tricks you can play by hitting the I'm Feeling Lucky button on the Google Homepage.
And if you think you are bigger than Google, then try customise your search engine home page with your own name or phrase. To do that, search "Google Funny" and instead of the google title being displayed front and centre, you can have whatever you want. My favourite is Eric Is Awesome!! :)
Or are you a scholar looking for more sophisticated references? By searching for "Google Beta" you are given access to all the articles, journals and legal opinions you could hope for.
And are you unable to get on to Facebook - or any other site for that matter - because the boss has blocked it? Just type in cache:facebook.com and your problems are solved.
Too many searches and not enough time? Just type in "googlegooglegooglegoogle" and you will be given four smaller google screens on your page to hunt for four different things at the one time.
Ho cool is that?
P/S : If you guys reading already know about these little goofs, then tough luck! If not, have fun trying... :)

Ex-No Boundaries in Brunswick
Over the weekend, I've got some friends visiting from Malaysia. These are the people I used to work with and still keep in touch. It was good seeing them again, speak some Chinese and show them Melbourne.
We didn't get to do a whole lot because of time but did manage to show them Hosier Lane (I reckon most designers would appreciate that place and in this case, they are all designers), The Roof Top Cinema at Curtain House, some exotic cafes and some good shops for street wear and books. All those were done in the city. We also had a wander around Victoria Market and after that, drove to Brunswick (how could I not show them this beauty of a place?).
Cruising down Brunswick Street, we saw an older guy in his full punk rock gear, giving us flyers about a designers market, which is just around the corner from where we were. Had to check that out and trust me, you can easily spend a few bucks here. All independent designers showing off the products they make themselves, this place has got a really hip feel to it. Maybe I should start doing stuff and start up a stall there myself. But I'm too lazy.
After the market, we pretty much walked up and down the street then head off to Smith Street where all the factory outlets are. First stop, NIKE and guess what, I bought another pair of sneakers. Classic NIKE DUNK. God damn it, I have been telling myself not to buy anymore sneakers before getting there but after seeing this pair of sneakers and it's only $50 bucks, I couldn't resist.

SKULL CANDY
While cruising the street of Brunswick, I found a store that carry Skull Candy Headphones with 20% discount. Bought 2, 1 for myself and another for a friend's birthday. When I got home and open the packaging, there are more than just headphones inside. There's a velvet tot bag, a Skull Candy bandana and the best part is the LIFETIME WARRANTY!!! If you break you headphone from aggressive music listening, slammed in your locker, car door, run over by a car, running into a wall, road biking sky diving, beating your boyfriend, blown up in an accidental experimentation with explosives or damaged in any other way, you get 50% refund. If it's any other faulty parts, it's full warranty. I repeat...FULL WARRANTY!!!
This is MINE!!!

Mid-life crisis started early...
2 weeks ago, I mentioned about getting a new car. Well not exactly a new car, it's a new used car. Mercedes-Benz SLK230 Kompressor R170. Found this little gem online at carsales.com.au and after test driving it, I don't have any choice but to bring it home with me. With the price I'm paying for this, I can get a brand new Honda Accord or a Mitsubishi Lancer but it is a no brainer really, if you put all three cars side by side, which one will you pick?
The condition of the car is superb. Hardly any scratches, brand new tyres, full AMG bodykit - it has been looked after from the previous owner. The only thing that is not 100% is the side of the arm rest, which the vinyl is peeling a little.
So far, I have driven it twice, once to the mechanic to get it checked and the second time was to the audio shop to get a quote to upgrade the sound system. The reason why I have not driven it more often than I want is because it is still waiting for it's birth certificate (registration papers) which I will be getting on Thursday (3 days time). here in Victoria, it is cheap to get custom plates and I do like the idea of custom plates. I have ordered red plates with white text and it spells TWELF. I didn't want my name on it (always thought of having your name on your car is a bit of a wank) so I got TWELF, since there are a few significant things in my life happens on the 12th. The initial thought was getting the number 12 but it is way to expensive and the proper spelling TWELVE has been taken so TWELF will do just fine.
I must say, having the baby sitting in the garage for 2 weeks and can't drive it is a torture. A TORTURE!!
