The more you learn…
Filed in blog, Thu, 14 Apr 2005, 1:00 pm…the more money you spend. One of the highlights from Lisa and my trip down to Florida was a stop in The Pro Shop in Delray Beach. What started as an attempt to purchase an inexpensive telephoto lens resulted in a 2 hour discussion with the owner, Art NeJame (pictured here with beard). I can’t [...]
American Idol - Top Eight
Filed in blog, Wed, 13 Apr 2005, 6:55 pmYou lazy SOB! What the hell happened to our “live blogging”? As if you cared! For those who do, please continue to my minor rant…
Late to the game
Filed in blog, , 4:00 pmOf course everybody knows about the glory of Google Maps by now. And even more importantly, you all know about the bitchass satellite view that gives us all freaky cool, Orwellian super powers. I meant to write about all of this. Really, I did. I wanted to mention what a superb job they had done [...]
She was a showgirl
Filed in blog, Tue, 12 Apr 2005, 11:41 pmDid you know that “Copacabana” is about a murder and some old showgirl broad going crazy? I’ve heard that song so many freakin’ times, but I really had no clue what the story was about. I think I always just fazed out after the first verse and chorus. I swear I thought Lisa was making [...]
Triumphant
Filed in blog, Sat, 9 Apr 2005, 9:45 amFirst, a brief note about work. I don’t talk about work much, but some really exciting stuff has been going on and I need to share. I have successfully installed a T1 line between the two facilities. Okay, in reality there were a dozen guys from Verizon that actually ran the fiber, spliced it, and [...]
the future is tomorrow…
Filed in blog, Fri, 8 Apr 2005, 2:28 pmSince it’s already being passed around LJ, I figured I’d try to help out in the blogosphere. From my friend Joseph, a request for help on creating a very geek-like library:

Friends, strangers, and hopefully fellow geeks, your help is needed.

I walked down the right back alley
Filed in blog, Thu, 7 Apr 2005, 11:25 pmMark and I caught Sin City tonight. It was the most violent, gruesome, bloody, and graphic film I’ve ever seen. Wow, what a ride. The style, direction, and characters were all amazingly well done. From start to finish I was completely drawn into the entire comic world Frank Miller created. I’d say more if I [...]
Three coffees to the wind
Filed in blog, , 5:45 pmNew coffee machine at work… Seven or eight ways to serve up hot caffeine… Craziness ensues…
I’m so excited about this machine that I’ve tried three of the options today alone: Cappucinno, Café Mocha, and Café Latte. Café Mocha is definitely the best, but they’re all way better than the crap I had been drinking before.
But [...]
American Idol - Top Nine
Filed in blog, Tue, 5 Apr 2005, 8:13 pmUh oh, looks like that time of the week again. You’d think with Mikalah gone, the suck factor would be almost non-existent. But with a theme like musicals, you can be assured that people will still suck. Pretend like this post never was.
Drink up the vote
Filed in blog, Mon, 4 Apr 2005, 4:43 pmWith all other world matters finally taken care of, we can now focus our attention on the important issues. What, pray tell, could that be? Why, “Which beer would you most like to drink?” of course. Realbeer.com (which is based on the West Coast, lest anyone view this as regional bias) is holding its annual [...]
