Well, the time is close approaching. Tomorrow, I pay up for that bet I lost to Juliet about a week ago. As it stands, I will have to be sans clothes for 24 hours. Joy. As you’ve probably surmised, I’m going to be spending the day at home. I got a few movies, just in case it’s painfully cold. My…
Worked on my portfolio site a bit. Amazingly, I got little done but the day just sorta shot by. Hopefully tomorrow will be more productive. Uhm… despite the… nakedness. Yeah.
Watched Wargames today, as a sort of lunch break from the computer. Got the DVD when I ran some errands this morning. Enjoyable, and a nice "ah, I remember this" sort of movie. But now that I’ve watched it again, almost ten years after it came out… Stephen Falken sorta creeped me out. When he goes into that dissertation about…
Tonight, as I was getting a 12 pack of Bass, I learned that Sam is at home, recovering. From OPEN HEART SURGERY. On top of that, I learned it was a QUINTUPLE BYPASS! Sam’s a good guy, from the occasional talks I’ve had with him… I like him a great deal. And not just because he provides me my beer…
Work went from meh to holy jebus, towards the end there. Just got back home about 20 minutes ago, and it’s closing in on midnight already. One small thing led to another… throw in a lot of waiting time for some weird permissions problems to get resolved long-distance, and here I am. Tonight’s gonna be more linkage than verbiage, I’m…
These came in yesterday, and today I wore my t-shirt like a high schooler. I have to admit – I’m a fan of Rey’s decision to go with a less prominent logo on the shirt. On the back, there’s the standard station/Q101 identity… but the main focus of the shirt is fairly nondescript. Rey felt that people would gravitate towards…
Saw this on k10k, a site that I’ve only just today started to peruse. There a ton of sites that other designer friends I know seem to frequent – I think I’ve gotta make the rounds and expand my set of URLs that I visit frequently. Apparently, the entire movie is one continuous shot!
Play with language. Ten times over! Original: My pencil is very, very big. Translation: My matita one is very, the very great one. ——————– Original: I am a beautiful and unique snowflake. Translation: They are pretty and specific tape. ——————– Original: I am lord and master of all I survey. Worship me! Translation: They are getlteman and homemade of everything,…
Still in development.
I warn you now, fully and up front. It’s terrible and just really, really wrong. But funny as hell. Kringle Karoling is my favorite. I’ve watched it like five or six times so far.
When I was a childmy mother found meat the piano bench playing myself. I was told to stop.I was told to keeppracticing. My handsgot good. When I was aloneI took a pencil andcarved my name intothe wooden bench. And here I am, still guilty! I am writing each word with my hands – my dirty hands!
When I was a student at OSU, I had the good fortune of attending a week-long workshop, led by Billy Collins. During that time, he gave us a ton of exercises, just to get us writing. I forget the poet he made us emulate in this particular case, but the rules were that the poem had to begin with the…
JohnnyFlash set up the old Unreal Tournament upon the server. Grumpy, jverbal, Caffeine and I played a few games. I seemed to be doing ok at the start, but then it just all went to hell. I used to be fairly good at this game – but tonight, it was like I was trying to move the mouse around with…
I’m not sure what my problem is. Twice today, I had good opportunities to take photographs and/or talk to strangers. But I didn’t, on both counts. Kicking myself a bit about it. Really should have, especially in the second case. Oh well – maybe I need to get back into the swing of taking pictures again, really just holding the…
Saw this site on Favourite Website Awards. A very interesting site, despite the fact that it’s merely serving as a vehicle to promote a book. I dig the variations in navigation, and in particular, am partial to the first extended monologue. Check out the site.
