Politics aside, Ronald Reagan was the first real politician that I was aware of growing up. I don’t remember his first election well, but I do remember his terms as President. He was, until I was 13, the only President I knew. Someone like that always leaves an impression. And, while they will miss him, […]
Amazon is taking orders for the Simpsons 4th season. We’re finally getting into the good ones: Mr. Plow, The Simpsons Clip Show, and Whacking Day. Must… pre… order… Link
Well, that just burns me. I bought one of the lowest performers the lowest performer. Damn it. Thanks to Ars Technica for, once again, doing all the work none of us can afford to do. Link (or go to the comparison chart)
Scratch this off the list of things to do. Link [via kottke.org]
Yeah, I’m a tool whore. I can admit it. I love new, shiney, wonderfully bloated software. Well, maybe not bloated, but shiney and new, definately. It’s even better when it’s free. Which brings me to the point of this post. I switched blogging tools, again. To Zempt. Yes, Earth-shattering stuff, but this is a pretty […]
I finally caved in (actually, I finally convinced my other half) and got an iPod. 20GB baby! I have more hard drive space on my iPod than on my desktop computer at work. Twice as much, actually. Unbelievable. For the longest time, I was skeptical about iPods. Seriously, how could something like a music player […]
I’m not a dishonest person, in reality or by reputation. But I do have the occasional dishonest inkling. For instance, a former co-worker, sometimes friend of mine is being considered for a job in the armed forces which requires a security clearance. Part of getting this clearance involves someone from the DoD interviewing references. As […]
Observer reporter Andrew Anthony recently had a chance to interview Liberal “maverick” documentarian Michael Moore. While praise for the film flows like, well, like Michael Moore himself were writing the copy, Mr. Anthony has some rather interesting observations about the director. What I think, after my short time in his company, is that Moore is […]
Interesting… I wonder if CNN knows about this? IRAQI EMIGRES ON ABU GHRAIB: This is interesting: n Iraqi engineer who moved to Australia in 1997 and lives in Sydney with his wife and three children. He is amazed at the gullibility of those Australians who have taken the Arab response to the photos at face […]
We’re finally home from Baltimore… friggen 12 hours straight to get home. We hated it that much. I remember being in Boston, SoPo, Maine, and Vermont and having a really good time. Maryland (well, to be fair, I should only say Baltimore), you suck. Sorry. I’ve never been in a place that so segregated the […]
