Translation

Mike came up with ‘Mike Speak’ today.. it’s where you remove all of the vowels from what you say, but you keep the sentences meaning intact. Try it out, you might like it.

To generate ‘Mike Speak’ I wrote a really simple script i call “removevowels” that allows you to pipe text into it, or call it directly and generate mike speak through stdin.

echo "hello world!" | removevowels
hll wrld!

removevowels

#!/bin/bash
# removevowels
sed -e 's/[aoeui]//g'

Pepsi Vanilla

Today my girlfriend Skye took me out to Olive Garden to celebrate my birthday, and she surprised me with my gift! She had the waitress pretend that they were out of sprite like I had ordered, and bring me a can of Pepsi Vanilla!

Pepsi Vanilla hasn’t been made for years now, and she managed to find it somewhere deep within the Internet! Best Birthday Ever!!
