Back with a vengeance

After installing Red Hat 9 on my box, my primary DNS server (which technically I shouldn’t be using) failed. Or was shut off. I really don’t know or care. It stopped doing things for me freely. Then I had problems with the secondary box couldn’t get my machines to do it either. Finally I decided [...]

1970’s cuisine

The links just keep on coming. This one is just bizarre. It’s what you do when you find weird stuff from the 70’s in your parents’ basement.

The cool guy at Sam Goody

The Sam Goody in town has this one really cool guy that works there. Big, scruffy, long unkempt hair - looks like either a sci-fi geek or a metal fan. Probably both, but we got to talking way back when I picked up the second season of Star Trek: TNG. We chatted a while and [...]

those wacky ball players

I generally don’t follow baseball. It was a big love of my childhood, but I got sick of it as I grew up and the games got too long and the salaries went from ridiculous to … I’m not sure, does ludicrous come next? Anywho, I gained back a little bit of interest this year [...]

The Pitts

I can’t believe I’m watching The Pitts. What’s even worse is that I’m laughing at it. I really like the daughter - not only did she have a “relationship” with a VW Bug, but she just got a remote control that was out of her reach using the vacuum cleaner. Lizzy Caplan’s hot, even if [...]

Stop the insanity!

Uh-oh, the ridiculous reviews have spread to Netflix - the source of all my movies. For some reason I began reading the reviews on there for American Beauty - one of my absolute favorite movies. If you don’t like it, too bad, I think you really missed out on it. But some of the people [...]

Inflation Calculator

Now I’m having this whole argument about budgetary inflation in movies on IMDb because of some comments I made about Ringu. Anywho, I found this cool inflation calculator.

More fun with hypercubes!

Another link with an animation to help you visualize hypercubes. Pretty cool.

I’m an American.. whether I like it or not

The Onion has a great article pointing out just how messed up things have gotten. Since when did it become policy that we only protest when it’s convenient? Oh, now that people are actually dying for this ridiculous war we’re not supposed to talk about how wrong we are. That makes a lot of sense. [...]
