Hoboken Thanksgiving
I’m not even in Hoboken right now, but I feel like talking about it. I love living here… for the most part. Unfortunately, thanks to the politics, finances, and certain legal issues, I’m just about ready to move out. Lately I’ve been rather down on the city for these reasons, but sometimes I go [...]
The walking wounded
Today I ended up taking a trip to the production facility. Everybody just wanted to assure themselves that they weren’t the only ones in abject pain from our little game on Friday. No overwhelming sense of machismo here – there was a desperate need of affirmation that our being out of shape was not a [...]
And they do this every Sunday
Friday afternoon was a turkey day party at the production facility at work. They all bugged me to make an excuse to visit them so I could hang out (since I’m based at the other site), so I did. It was good eats complete with beer and wine, which was an excellent way to fill [...]
It’s Wednesday already
I can’t tell if this week is moving too fast or too slow. It’s already Wednesday and I haven’t even bragged about the Eagles stompin’ on the Gints. I got to wear my new jersey (wow, that looks funny) while I screamed my head off for them (not nearly as much as Monday night, but [...]
Stop the Insanity
I guess I’ll put this under my server’s category. Remember that whole stupid comment spam incident? Well I do! Apparently other people (probably those whose sites are actually read by people outside their apartments :grin: ) are starting to have a worse time with that. Hitting the Wordpress DevBlog I noticed that Dougal posted some [...]
Roughing the passer
My roommate Brian started an account with Gamefly to cut down on all the money he (we) spend on video games. So the first game I put on the queue was ESPN NFL 2k4. I really enjoyed 2k2, but 2k3 was nigh impossible on the PS2. I decided this time it would make sense to [...]
I can’t get to sleep
I haven’t been sleeping much lately. There are issues that are too personal for the web, and I don’t want to become one of those people (I’d be linking someone from my past there, but I don’t want to give her any hits ;) ). In the meantime, I’ve been watching a lot [...]
I think my heart is still pounding
My evening wasn’t going very well. Actually, it was downright sucky. So I’ll just say that I really needed this pick-me-up from the Eagles. The Eagles beat the Packers to solidify their lead on a wild-card spot and remain only one game behind for the division lead. They did it at Lambeau when almost nobody [...]
Spammers, we don’t need no steenking spammers
I can’t believe spammers are so pathetic that someone actually came up with the idea of comment spamming. Basically, in an attempt to boost page rankings for their stupid websites, people are leaving comments on blogs and journals simply to link back to themselves or other sites they are “paid to advertise”. I thought I [...]
Praystation 3
While poking around the nooks and crannies of the Internet to see if there was any info about Sony’s timeline for the next Playstation console (even I don’t understand how bored I had become in such a short break at work), I came across this little gem of a “PS3 sneak preview“. The interview is [...]
