Doughty pics

I got the pics from Ron the other day and finally got them up in the gallery. Check out the two of us with Mike Doughty.


Soul Calibur II

Yeah, like it was really necessary for me to spend more money on games. I’ve barely been touching consoles other than occasional bouts of needing to shoot people with crossbows in slow motion on an incredibly outdated system. More on that at another date. The important matter is that Markus decided to drop by last [...]


Bad morning

Actually, not much was wrong with the morning (other than being tired and beat up from last night’s adventures - more on that later) until halfway to work this morning. Just before Route 3 merges with 46W, there was a sudden slow down in the left lane. People swerved away from the shoulder, and as [...]


Quick note

4 days left in August. I was on a record pace in the middle of the month, but now I must blog on at least 2 out of these final days just to match the 13 posts/month I had going this summer during those glory days of June and July. I feel silly, but I [...]


This time for real

I noticed some broken features in WordPress yesterday after proclaiming the mightiness of my recovery. Before I could even begin singing the songs of my own praise and recording the historical records for future generations little errors began creeping into my view. Today I hoisted back onto my trusty steed and ventured into the very [...]


Holy egg salad Batman - I’m back!

Thursday, server died. A/C, too. Home drive all up shit’s creek (I’m not sure if that’s possessive or plural). Things went all wacky. Spent lots of time trying to recover data. Gallery is still AWOL.
In case you couldn’t guess, things became somewhat disastrous and I’ve been slowly rebuilding thebox. Amazingly I’ve almost got the 0.72 [...]


Mike Doughty

I really need to comment on last night. Tuesdy, my friend Ron IM’ed me late and asked if I was free on Wednesday. I wasn’t sure until he mentioned he had an extra ticket to see Mike Doughty at Maxwell’s. Doughty, in case you don’t know, was the lead singer of the ground-breaking alt-rock-jazz-fusion band [...]


You want a recall - I’ll give you one

Another intriguing link courtesy of Markus - this one comparing the California recall to how Herr Bush should be dealt with.


Too many quizzes

Nicest feature/biggest problem with Quizilla is that you can make your own quizzes. That seems to have led to numerous bizarre themes that I will be forced to tackle. I’m not sure why I too this last quiz, but I did:
You are “Welcome to the Caribbean, love.”You’re more than a little world-weary, but alsointelligent and [...]


There should be an test to get online…

Some moron decided to post a comment about my review of House of 1000 Corpses. His comments speak to the intelligence of someone who actually thought that movie was anything but pure and utter mindless trash. Of course he’s too much of a pathetic simp to even have an e-mail (at least that’s his claim), [...]
