I tasted tear gas

Wouldn't you know it, Halloween '04 on State St. ended badly again. Actually, it wasn't horrible, but we could have done without it.

So anyways….
I head down there around 11:30 to meet the Eric's and Sarah. Nothing spectacular in the way of costumes. Mainly people dressing outlandishly with a few notables here and [...]

Excerpts from Osama’s speech

I'm really at a loss for this. On one hand, the guy is a complete nutjob yet on the other, and I hate to say it, he speaks the truth about why they hate us and why they will continue to hate us due to the constant misleadings of the American Government.
The sad thing [...]

Survivor stupidity

Way back when, Annie and I used to religiously watch the first season of Survivor. It was interesting and fun, but I never felt a desire to watch even more of it as they kept renewing it every 6 months or whatever for a new season with even more twists and turns. So [...]

Katamari Damacy

I have no idea why it's spelled that way (you pronounce damacy like da-ma-she), but this is the best damn game I have played in a long time. It's so very absurd, so odd and out there, yet so simple that it's addicting and will most likely have a very long shelf life. [...]

Wolf packs for truth

The latest dubya commercial is stretched a bit thin on the metaphors. I usually shrug off the commercials, but this was so absurd it kept my attention. Showing a pack of wolves as a group of terrorists waiting to pounce on prey in their moment of weakness somehow equates to what will happen [...]

The Gimli Glider

An awesome story of how a couple of cool-headed pilots managed to land a Boeing 767 with no fuel.
Pearson and Quintal immediately began making preparations for a one engine landing. Then another fuel light lit up. Two minutes later, just as preparations were being completed, the EICAS issued a sharp bong–indicating the complete and total [...]

Missed Connection With My Life

Taken form the above link:
How did this happen? I'm not quite sure.
I'm a good guy, some even say a great guy. Fun to be with, interesting witty.
I'm not.
I'm scared sometimes.
I feel alone sometimes.
I feel like people really don't know me.
This is why…
Days become weeks. Weeks become months. Months [...]

I RULE!

I wasn't content with my previous scripting/hacking attempt I talked about last week. Originally from way back I wanted to rip TodayFM (which is a windows media stream) from 3am to 6am and then convert it to bookmarkable AAC so I could drop it on my iPod or play in iTunes. These 3 [...]

my site on tv

For the second time now, I've just seen my latest site on tv in a commercial. It's funny… I don't think much of the stuff I work on and for the most part think they're all pretty lame (probably desensitized to having seen it so much from working on it). However, seeing it [...]
