I was Karen’s emergency backup date for Jersey Boys after her regular date had a last minute cancellation. We were going to the Hard Rock to eat at Renegade for dinner, but they were closed (a previous visit to Renegade for my birthday can be found in this post). They have new hours and are […]
I have frequently mentioned that the worst movie EVER made was a film called LaserBlast that I saw in 1978 in Key West, Florida (where I lived at the time). It may have absolutely no redeeming value whatsoever, even as a footnote to history. It was trying to cash in on the Star Wars craze. […]
Who is good at mystery issues? I run Firefox at both work and home. We have three PCs running Firefox at work. They all appear to be set the same except for font size. The one in my office has stopped saving history — the “awesome bar” as it’s called, has the same search stuff […]
Please vote on this LOLCatz. I don’t want to mention that this is my friend Paul. So there is no way I will mention this is my friend Paul. I am certain Paul wouldn’t want anyone to know that’s him sitting on the crapper with a cat in his pants. So I will not post […]
First, I must say, the Panthers are sucking so bad, it’s embarrassing. They are a train wreck. How bad is it? Legendary fan and media-whore VanMurph finally thew a fit over it and has jumped in with the rest of us who are saying what the fuck is wrong with this team? You know, many […]
Technorati is pissing me off. Normally I get a fair amount of traffic from them. However, for two weeks now it’s been not updating my blog posts to their database. That means people who access this blog via Technorati are seeing “last update 14 days ago” — and I’ve been trying to get in touch […]
I was feeling nostalgic today. Not because this is the 600th post — that’s a coincidence, but because I was thinking about my favourite columnist of all time: Herb Caen. Mister Caen is famous because without him you’d not have the word beatnik which he coined in 1958, or the word hippie which he popularized […]
A lot of people are hitting my blog looking for the above phrase. I am not sure why it’s matching because until I wrote this, there’s nothing related to it on my blog. However, the unofficial message board does have a thread on it. The official message board, apparently, thinks discussing fan behaviour and flashing […]
The video starts off with “If you’re one in a million in China, there are 1300 people exactly like you” and moves on to “The top 25% of India’s population with this highest IQs exceeds the population of the US” The music is really irritating so you might wish to turn it down a bit, […]
I am a big fan of Orson Scott Card’s writing*. I’ve been especially a fan of the Ender series (both the Game and Shadow cycles). So with great excitement I got Ender In Exile the latest in this long, ongoing series. It’s set between Ender’s Game and Speaker for the Dead or so it claims. […]
