All right, I was trying to think of something to update my blog with and well, frankly, I was still cold but another post about that would suck even though it is expected to get into the 30s in some areas overnight. A freaking freeze warning in Miami of all places. Damn. This is THE […]
It’s cold. It’s Florida and it’s not supposed to be in the 40s dammit. I just wanted to say that. It’s odd, I like the cold normally, but not today.
This exchange is from Planet Damnation. I am posting it here because it’s so fabulously British it defies explanation to anyone who hasn’t experienced Britishness at its finest. The setting is the first Gulf War. RAF Wing Commander David Farquahar had a briefcase with a laptop containing the entire Gulf War briefing plans. Said briefcase […]

Yeah, I finally saw Happy Feet. I saw the preview some time ago and thought it looked stupid. I didn’t really want to see it. But a funny thing happened on the way to the forum. Everyone who did see it, told me they liked it or loved it. Sure, they all thought it got […]
The headline is only a bit misleading. He’s always scared me because he has neither a conscience or a soul. However, his latest gambit, surveillance of all Americans without due process required by law is just the final straw in a mountain of straws. From the AP story you’ve all read “President Bush has acknowledged […]
Eric Hedlund posted a version of this in his blog on 1-22-06. I’ve modified it and put it here. Load up iTunes, my friends, for a fun experiment. (You can do this with your iPod, or other music program if you prefer). Prepare your answers and post them here as comments…. You have to tell […]
I originally saw this play on 2 August 2005, and I have been trying to find my original review since then, but it seems to have gone AWOL along with my entire list archive for that trip (and also my review of the Proms, etc). So for this review, I’m going to have to skip […]
Today, 19 January 2006, I was named Seti@Home’s user of the day. I have no idea how or why I was selected but I am thrilled because I’ve always been a huge supporter of Seti@Home. If you go to the link below today and today only, you can see my ugly mugshot on the front […]
I originally made a post called Crazy Frog or Coldplay back on June 3rd, 2005. Pretty innocuous, eh? Well, it’s interesting because over 25% of the people who find their way to my blog are looking for that post. Another 20% are looking for my post from March 5th, 2005 called Why Led Zeppelin Sucks […]
