Those who read this site (or just those who dig through my archives) will know I’ve been trying to get a cell phone for about a year now. I hardly ever need to talk on a phone, so I’ve been trying to find a phone that will let me do data. I think I would [...]

Ahhhh… Wireless high speed internet, big screen satellite TV, comfortable bed. It’s good to be home. I just got back from a few days in Seattle. It’s a cool city. There’s a very strong art vibe. They have statues on every corner, and interesting architecture. Naturally, I took loads of photos. Here’s a bunch that [...]

Google is the coolest web site EVER! They’ve built in the most wicked cool calculator you’ve ever seen. I don’t know how long it’s been in there, but it does the most obscure conversions you could possibly imagine. Say for instance if you wanted a parsec expressed in inches. So cool, I’ve been playing with [...]

Expect postings at this site to slow to a trickle for the next few days. I barely have an internet connection. I think my ping times would be higher if I got a line of people to relay a shout. What’s worse (and if you know me, you know that’s saying something) is that the [...]

I’m not a huge Gore fan. In the last election, I thought he might be marginally better than Bush (if only because of the possibility of Supreme Court retirees), but not substantively different. Still, in this speech, he nails everything I’ve been feeling about the plague on the face of American ideals that the current [...]

There’s something deliciously unsettling about the art over at the Maboroshi Cafe. Thanks for the point everlasting blort. Oh, and as long as I’m lifting creepy links from Blort today, is Meat Shake real or parody? I seriously can’t tell. This must mean I’ve been on the internet too long (or not long enough).

Oh Yeah… They claim this is “An astronomically-enchanted 5th grader gazing at the completed Galactic Mobile.”, but that’s not what it looks like to me. Thank you Google Random Image Generator. So much fun. I could kill hours refreshing this page.

Of course, I’ve seen a bunch of links to Blogshares. I know what it is and kind of how it works. I haven’t paid much attention, because it didn’t look very interesting, and I’m not playing. I saw a link in my referrer logs though, and it seems that my blog is being Publicly Traded. [...]

Why is MTV running a Spider-man cartoon? I know they stopped playing music videos a long time ago, but I thought their programming was at least about a particular life style. Spider-man doesn’t make any sense at all. But then Five gay guys for a straight guy or whatever it’s called doesn’t seem like a [...]

So, I’m working out. You know, because what else are you going to do on Friday night (I’m so lame). I have the computer pumping out some groovy workout tunes. At least, I thought I did until Iron Maiden’s “Number of the Beast” came on. I guess I just had my iTunes library on total [...]
