So I went on a bit of a binge today. Three Netflix DVD’s came in yesterday, all of them from Season 3 of Monk. Some of you may recall that I got hooked on this show a few months back. My DVD player has been on the fritz lately, so I went out and got…
Today, walking around my apartment… I saw two women, on two separate occasions, who both had some sort of Chinese text tattooed on their bodies. The first was written on a woman’s lower back, right above her waistline. The second was written at the base of a woman’s neck, right where it meets the shoulderblades….
Impromptu cookout today, over at Justin’s. We were originally going to meet up and I was going to walk him through the photo browser I made for work (for a site called Who’s Next). I was going to show him how some of the ActionScript worked, and get him started on creating his own version….
Holy shit! We met Mr. T!
Had a bunch of us play a round of Holdem after work today. A great time as always, though the more I play… the more I feel like I have to learn. I lasted for a while, but didn’t really do better than mediocre play (in my estimation). Still though – we had a huge…
Check this out! Mr. T was visiting the radio station today, and we were able to get a group picture taken with him! He was incredibly nice about the whole thing, despite the fact that he had just stepped off a plane a few hoursearlier. Probably still groggy from when Murdock slipped him the tranquilizers….
Sort of easy to miss, but once you see it it sort of jumps out. Spotted at the Milwaukee/Damen/North trisection.
Tonight, my DVD-player was on the fritz so I ended up popping in an old VHS tape of a PBS documentary I had taped, several years ago, called Evolution. This was a multi-part documentary, and just a fantastic one at that. However, the episode I watched tonight was the final one, entitled What About God?…
And poems. I need to start writing poems again.
On Chris’ recommendation, I picked up Object-Oriented Programming with ActionScript (by Branden Hall and Samuel Wan). Although it’s almost 3 years old, Chris spoke so highly of it that I decided I needed to pick it up. Also, as per a conversation regarding OOP with Justin last week… I’ve realized that this is something I…
We went out to eat lunch, and got caught by a pretty strong thunderstorm. After running back inside (and dodging a lot of the downpour), I walked back in to the office to a distinctly dark room. We like it dark where we work, but it was more pronounced with the clouds rolling by. I…
Recently, Kashif, Ben and Chris all worked on a project for Q101 (which involved Sauza as a client). After successfully completing their end of things, Ben jokingly asked Angie if we could get a case of tequila from the client. Lo and behold, Angie brings back no less than six bottles of happy juice! Awesome!…
To fully appreciate the video (below), I must first insist that you go back a month and watch the video for that day first. Then, when you’re ready, continue on.
Ben brought in some more Mexican candy today. This time though, he had purchased a ton (we’re talking like 26) of the very candy he loves: Powerpiñas. Chris and I both tried one, and I wanted to mark the occasion. I’m not crazy about the flavor, but it was much milder than I initially suspected…
