>You Tube Is Awesome
>So oldschool! That link listed below is very valuable. Find the video mentioned on the site on YouTube. It’s very hard to figure from the source code so you’re much better just searching for what you know is on there. (part 1 of 8, etc)Then do this with the URL: ClipNabberAnd then drag and drop the resulting file to this program: Total Video Converter Bam boom, you have a movie in 8 parts, just like old times. Albeit a tad lower quality, but you can watch it, and chances are it’ll fit on a CD or thumb drive. I love…

>Old Video Games
>I’m collecting old PC games. I’ve been collecting them for some time, but each time I do a major hardware upgrade, or come upon games I forgot about – I like to pop them in and see what used to pass for “good”. Over the past couple weeks I’ve tried the following:Metal Gear Solid 2Wing Commander ProphecyStart Trek: Next Generation – New WorldsSacrificeMech Commander 4 – Black KnightsTrue Crime I’m still installing True Crime. 4 CDs of waiting. Console games play right off the disk, but since all consoles have predicible read speed – they can do that.Metal Gear Solid…
Cultural Differences?
I just read this article about Temporary Enjoyment Mariages making a come back in Iraq.Apparently this sort of thing was banned back when Sadam was in power. It’s esentially prostitution. $4 up front and all of their monthly expenses until the “marriage” is over. It is certainly an interesting read. Then there was this other story about a guy who registered for school as a 12 year old. I kept scanning the article and coulnd’t see anywhere that said how tall this guy was. If he was a midget I could see it… but apparently he shaved his body hair…
>No Luck – Wing Commander Prophecy
>So the data restore didn’t work. I tried a bootable CD ISO I found, I tried the program that I mentioned in the shareware and got my old VISTA information. I had formatted the drive that had VISTA on it and copied over all my Documents. In any case nothing worked so I installed:Wing Commander Prophecy (It’s recommended you have a 3DFX to play) I found a few files that enable Wing Commander: Prophecy to play on Windows XP and boom, all the weird skipping and interlaced videos went away. It’s actually a really fun game. I don’t think I’ve…
HD Crash
I may be jumping the gun, but there are many many files left to scan so I’ve got to do something. One of my SATA HDs crashed, my first 80Gig Western Digital. It appears the HD is technically OK because S.M.A.R.T. wasn’t triggered but I can’t get anything off it. Normally I just say “oh well” and do without, but this time I really needed to make sure I got all the data off it. My “My Documents” folder happened to be on this particular drive, so there are various cracks, save game files, configuration files, and other bits that…
Jeff Goldblum is Watching You Poop
Here’s an oldie:Jeff Goldblum is Watching You Poop. I was sad becausejeffgoldblumiswatchingyoupoop.comhas shut down, or stopped paying their bill, or soemthing. I figured I could at least restore it via it’s own subdirectory.The page isn’t there yet, but the image is. The idea is to print out as many as you can, bring a roll of masking tape, and put them inside every stall you see. Many people can then feel the pang of self-deficating humor.
>Where are you?

>I normally do this in the scrolllinks above, but these deserve a feature: Dan’s Kind of Contest Larry Pierce – Musical Artist noted below Hey, wait… Mr Bush… who’s that in the picture? Quote of the day comes from Minnesota: “They only left the squirrel,” she said, shaking a bag of frozen squirrel that she pulled from the freezer. This is great, there’s a compaign for a newbie to be NHL All Star. Right now there’s only 2 guys in front of him. I say it’ll be great if this guy gets the vote. He’s a write in, so choose…

>RAM Ramblings
>I found this guy’s site while looking for something about RAM. I like the site, the LAIN pic at the top caught my eye. It reminds me a lot of myself a couple years ago, I guess cause I’m not as into Anime as I once was. There’s still similarities, but I like to think I blog more emotionally… and the below will demonstrate: I just installed 4 new DDR 400 modules in my PC in order to get Dual Channel 400mhz. I ended up reading these particular GEIL value brands are rather good at Overclocking, especially for a value…
>New Years 2006
>It was a fun time, with wii, kareoke, foos, and laughing on the porch.*update* Just for you Jay -> *PING!*The food was plentiful, as was the drink. I remember select moments, so please elaborate via comments if you were there (or if you weren’t and would like to pretend, I’ll allow it). I remember fiddling with the computer – 3 days of making sure everything was installed, the settings were right, and everything was good to go in order to allow a smooth demo presentation of the fun that is the monster machine with the graphics, and the various controlers…
