Going to the DMV is the worst thing ever. I’ve gone three times this week and aborted all three times, once because the line was way too long, once because it wasn’t open yet, and once because the projected wait was over an hour and a had a friend with me. By not having the […]
Tommorow is moving day at the office. It should be a pretty nice upgrade. Here are some things that make for a good office: Privacy. No half-wall bullshit where you have to see your co-worker every time either one of you stand up. Screen angle. When someone walks into your office, it’s best if your […]
I am starting to miss the old days of normal spam. No longer is my junk mailbox filled with ways to make my penis longer, places to get cheap viagra, and horny farm animals looking to please. Here are the subject lines from six junk emails I got today: ????????????(?) ¥þ°ê³Ì«K©yAV¼v¤ù¨C¤ù¤£¨ì10¤¸ ¡½¡½±ÄÁÊ®w¦s¹q¤l¹s¥ó¡½¡½ ¡» t¶Å«ü¼Æ¤Ó°ª¶Ü? Åý§ÚÌ°§C±zªºµhW«ü¼Æ¡»¡»¡» […]

I play in a local band. We’ve been playing together for years and years, and as an official band for a little less than one year. When we don’t have a steady gig, we just take whatever comes along assuming it is convenient for everyone and we’ve covered all the bases. What are the bases? […]
There are a lot of folks out there with HDTV’s. Of course, we HD advocates want to watch as much content as we can at sweet, sweet HD resolutions. But even our once-fancy Progressive Scan DVD Player only outputs at 480p. What’s a boy to do? Upconvert, that’s what. A totally decent upconverting DVD player […]

I went to go see King Kong last night. I was a little tired to begin with, so the first hour or so was putting me right to sleep, but not to fret, almost the entire last two-thirds of the movie is high-power actionriffic. There was even a completely gratuitous scene in this rocky valley […]

It’s snowing like mad outside, and it’s about 5:15, which means the traffic is at it’s worst. Last week Thursday it snowed like this and it took me 40 minutes to get home where it usually takes about 10. Plus, I found out earlier that our tank of Natural Gas at home has run out, […]
