Established in 2001, Newegg has quickly become a household name, shipping 25,000 orders per day. On a trip to LA we were given the opportunity to take a tour of one of Newegg’s warehouses, complete with pictures and a virtual tour of their facilities, following the path of an order after it is placed online.
This is simply amazing, be sure to read the whole story and check out all of the pictures. This is why Newegg is the best.

I am visiting my family in Florida for the holidays. I was chillin at my sister’s house when we looked out back and noticed a swarm of honeybees congregating on their swingset. There are a lot of kids around, including my sister’s 3 kids. They were inside at the time, fortunately.
Fuckin Bees!
A few minutes later they had calmed down. We were guessing they were disturbed from their hive and decided to come here, or something.
This is where the bees were coming from. A hole in the house behind my sister’s place. We told the landlady about it and she didn’t seem to care or want to be bothered that she was renting a house to people that had fucking BEEES living inside it.
The neighbor called a bee removal company and they said they wouldn’t come out unless we paid a hefty fee, but he did recommend waiting until dark and go buy some stuff from Home Depot and squirt them with it and that should kill them off.
Well that plan was OK except for 2 things. 1 was that my sister’s husband is crazy. The 2nd thing is we didn’t want to wait that long nor spend any money.
So we did the next best thing. Started fucking with the bees.

As you may have noticed, my blog’s got a new skin. Some of you were complaining about the many MB of images you needed to download with the old skin, so I decided to go with a new one. Yeah, it’s blue, but hey, what would you rather have, blue or puke green+a few mb of images to download?
I need to tweak the CSS a bit, so some things may not look right just yet. I’m working on it as we speak (type?).
Edit: That wasn’t as hard as I thought it would be. Let me know what you think!
