God I Love Google


So Google is at it again & boy am I excited for this one! We all know how awful it is to do the drunk dial, send the drunk text or drunk email right? Well, it turns out that Google is well aware of the issue as well and they are taking control. Google’s Gmail will be adding a feature to help prevent drunk emailing. The feature, aptly named “mail goggles” will need to be activated by the user and once it is you will be required to answer 5 math questions in 1 minute in order to send your email. This feature will be activated late nights and weekends since that is the most likely time that people are wasted. Don’t worry if you aren’t good at math, you can adjust your settings so that the questions aren’t too hard but are hard enough that if you are wasted you won’t be able to answer 5 in one minute. Gmail engineer Jon Perlow had this to say about the new feature "Hopefully, Mail Goggles will prevent many of you out there from sending messages you wish you hadn't." Amen to that!

Now Jon, do you think you might be able to meet with Verizon to help prevent me from sending drunk texts?

Filtered Vodka

Ok peeps, so Wendy had seen on Mythbusters that filtering your vodka yourself does work so I decided to put this to the test on my own. Friday night I bought a 5th of Popov for $9 and took it home & ran it through my DuPont (Brita style) pitcher 4 times. In the ep of Mythbusters the guys suggested doing it 3 times but my filter is nearing it's end so I opted for 4 times. Now, I did pour a small glass of the Popov as is for taste testing purposes and I also poured a small glass of Grey Goose as well...I mean, you have to have all comparisons right? Anyway, after the 4th round there was a significant taste improvement in the vodka. I tasted the original Popov, the new Popov and the Grey Goose and it's safe to say that the new Popov landed much higher than in it's original state but was definitely not as good as the Goose. Don't believe me? Try it yourself but remember, if it takes 4 rounds to get the vodka good it's gonna take at least 4 rounds to get your water back to normal in the pitcher too!
