Whither PS/3, Xbox-360, and Nintendo Wii? Ah, well I am so glad you asked. In the 24 March 2007 issue of the Economist, they do an analysis of which of these systems is better. So far, The Xbox 360 has sold the most consoles but is flopping in Asia while doing well in the US […]
I’ve always wanted to use the phrase “douche bag” in my blog. I find it funny and especially scathing. There are many people I’d like to call a douche bag, but aside from President Bush Jr I really haven’t been able to find a worthy recipient — you really need to be consistently scummy to […]
Oh, wait, there isn’t much of one. I’m sick — but don’t feel bad except for the damn infernal 24/7 hacking. The doctor says I’m sick and am suffering from some unknown viral malaise. Doesn’t that sound fun. My throat is shredded to bits from the constant hacking. Talking hurts, so I haven’t been doing […]
Snap is this little thingy where, as you mouse over a link, you get a preview of the link’s website. I’m going to try and see if I like it. Guy Kawasaki uses it on his blog, so I’m sure it’s reputable. Let me know what you think. You can turn it off if it […]
Of course not. However, that’s the title of this great article. Though amusing, it’s also thought-provokingly profound. After all, you’ve got to love the truth in this comment: “The fact is that if climate change were caused by gay sex, or by the practice of eating kittens, millions of protesters would be massing in the […]
Some clever chap has a brilliant idea which I am very keen on. This person states “I hereby declare April 13, 2007, is National Buy Dick Cheney a Cheeseburger Day. Millions of Americans will buy cheeseburgers, consume them, and then mail their receipts to Vice President Dick Cheney, to encourage him to chow down or […]
This excerpted from Josh’s blog-thingy with his permission. I was playing with some numbers the other day wanting to see what kind of data it would take to texture a model of the entire planet in photographs of the Earth’s surface with your average 7-mega-pixel camera. The numbers may be screwy, but here’s what I […]
My God! If I get one more e-mail asking me about Harry Potter’s dick I will just scream. Yeah, I made a post about it, but it was not a sexual post. It was a “what is the kid thinking” post and more bemused than anything. I posted a publicity still (tasteful but boring) in […]
One of the funniest actors in the Britcom genres, John Inman has died today at age 71. He is best known for the role of Mr. Humphries in the classic Are You Being Served? series on BBC television which ran for nearly 13 years. He and Mrs. Slocombe (Mollie Sugden) stole the show — he […]
Yeah, the title is a tip-o-the-hat to “Spanner in the Works” but it’s also just what happened. I’ve been crabby all day because I barely slept a wink last night after a short night the previous night. I’m sore, tired, and miserable. So what’s the story? Ah, yes, glad you asked. Last night, around 9ish, […]
