>OK — I had given up on Yahoo!’s URLs cause they’re all weird and were causing issues. This one looks alright and is too good too pass up. Gnome phones home. Who woulda thought? Hollywood likes drugs. Optical Camouflage So today is great! The party was kickin’ this weekend. There were many great people, everyone was considerate… (I didn’t find any surprises the next morning (unless they hid them really well)) and we all had a blast. The “Jungle Juice” as it was so affectionately called was a hit… and everyone was plumb puddin by the end of the night.…
>I heard some news last night, and I took it personally. I probably shouldn’t have as they gave valid reasons, but I can’t help thinking it’s got something to do with my own actions. Apparently Phil was approached by the landlord about moving over to that side with a rent-a-room rate (utils included, etc). He would get her bedroom (the same as mine on the other side) and she would move to another room. Shortly after Ken told me this he then said he would be looking for a place sometime in the summer. He cited the heating costs, the…
>[ begin school ramble ] There’s so much I have yet to do for school and the like — mainly my COBOL programming. I just can’t seem to get the time to sit there and play with it. I have the 2nd program written, we ought to be on the 3rd… and I’m still working the kinks out of what I’ve got. I am supposed to write a flow-chart first… but I don’t really know what goes on it. I end up getting way too detailed and might as well be writing down the code. I know I have a…
>Happy birthday to me! I went to my 1st class, it got out early so I skipped my 2nd to go do some insurance stuff. I got home, did some yard work, and cleaned the house… hung out for a bit, did some homework, and went to bed. I had taken the day off from work just so I wouldn’t have to work on my birthday. It was good to have a break, helped wind down from vacation… when I had all this time free, but still not enough. I’m preparing for the weekend, cleaning the house was part of…
>This reporter is having troubles, this one is a chilling entry. These images and accounts are hurting so much. I had my Hepatitis B shot yesterday — it’s all been downhill from there. Well, not really – I went to classes, then hung out in the park with Phil and Becca when I got out — so it wasn’t all bad. We threw around the aerobie and frisbee for a while. I ran around with sandles and feet on the grass. It was a little chilly by the end of the afternoon… but it was so welcome. It’s been a…
>I don’t know how the war is going, it’s getting tricky. Iraq’s getting tricky. It’s not right… but they are fighting as a people. We have people who elected to fight. They’re using whatever they can. I’m somewhat worried about this. It’s like seeing flyers on telephone poles with your “personal” information — and advertising to join in the battle against you. I don’t know the progress of the world (I meant war, but world works too) at this point. It’s spring out, that makes me happy… but I have a little smudge on my soul — to go with…
>I love being tested, it’s so much fun. I get a whole bunch of good, the good gets better… then it’s bad, hiss, bad, bad. It tests my patience, my coping, my outlook, and my temper. There are things that you can use with hindsight to learn… and some things that you may wish you weren’t there at that time — but it happened, and there’s nothing you can do about it. It’s just another bothersome little tidbit of life. When you can see the good tidbits through the bad tidbits… it makes it a little easier. I stayed calm,…
>Well I’m back… and at work — yesterday was a loooooong day, but I got home. =] It was less then a happy return, all sorts of people were confused and mad and everyone had their theories and bits of information that they pieced together to make a sucessful soap opera. .:sigh:. It’s probably the end of things with Nicole by now… I hope she changes her mind, but you can’t argue with someone when they’ve already planned it all out in their head before even talking to you. I have the whole trip typed out, just have to edit…
>One of my favorite foods: a fluffanutter How much do you know about our country’s great seal? We need a little inspiration during times like these. Don’t drug kids, unless you really mean it. porn?!! where? Marketers are sneaky buggers. This just in:: Mary’s Nipple to be covered with tape. Japanese monkey runs amok – amok amok amok amok amok amok! Here’s a conversation piece. And I will call it… mini-tank. 2003 Geneva Motor Show New info regarding Mayans. Machu Pichu, Machu Pichu, Fung Shui, shishkabob Am I hot? Stern thought of it first. More monkeys! Don’t let women fool…
>Well, speak of the devil… a day after setting up some ‘sponsors’ my fore-sight has proven itself. I was notified today that I’ve begun to go over quota. My web-host gives me so much bandwidth (transfer, in bytes) per yearly fee. I renewed about 5 or 6 months ago… and am already over. I’ve come to the realization that this hobby (I’d like to give it more legitimacy then that… but it’s really what it boils down to) is going to start costing me money. Granted, the site isn’t exactly graphicly-lean… but that’s what makes it special. It’s like a…
>Ok — so bear with me for this. I am trying to get things moving in the direction of sponsors. I need to test some out, and they need a positive response… or else they charge me a non-active fee. I’m giving it a shot, and they are retailers and sites that I normally recommend anyhow. I will hopefully have an expanded “Market Place” section where there will be different links for each category, such as Movies, Music, Video Games, Computer Hardware, Computer Software, Car Parts/Mods and anything else that looks like it might have promise. There’s even a sponsor…
>I just got 2 new CDs: Rammstein – Mutter, and 50 Cent‘s new one. I’m sure you’ve heard a few of his songs on the radio, probably figured it’s just another gangsta wannabe. In a way he’s picked up on Eminem’s style, but that’s not necessarily a bad thing. He’s got a similar style, but a flavor all his own. He’s brackish and focused on street-creed… that aside, the whole CD is really good. I’ve had the new Rammstein in my head since I saw xXx, the movie may have been horrible… but the song and performance in the movie…
>I think my favorite number is 6… mainly because it’s more then 5. If you read the story yesterday where I called the UN Inspectors pussys – you really need to read this follow-up. OMG, ROFLMAO! – Read at least the first 2 pages. Learn to use your boars constructively. Something Positive – online comic It’s really cold out there.
>I’m trying to get everything together for my trip on Monday – I booked everything on Expedia.com so I went there to print out my itinerary, and receipt, just in case I need some other info for my e-ticket. I also set up mobile alerts to my phone to remind me when the connecting flights are leaving (just in case I’m caught up in a rousing game of pinball or whatnot while waiting for my flight). I can never get enough of this techie stuff, it’s so much fun! …and speaking of which – it’s off to Best Buy to…
>Well I’ve been hankering to find Cannibal: The Musical on DVD — nothing at Blockbuster, FYE could order it, but it was going to be $24.95… so I tried Netflix, ordered it, says there’s a short wait but at least they have it. I also found it at www.cduniverse.com (see above link) — as they’re my new favorite place to buy movies and music, I recommend going there for it. If you haven’t seen it, you really should. I didn’t do much this weekend, did a lot of driving, running around, and doing nothing of much consequence. At least I…
>OK… I’m all for convenience, but sometimes it’s just too easy. I heard a song on the radio earlier, it got stuck in my head. It was Swing Swing… or something similar from “…american… blah” I hopped on www.cduniverse.com and searched for new releases. (I used to use CDNOW until their selection grew sparse along with the information they provided about each album.) I saw “American Hi-Fi” on the list… I knew that wasn’t it but clicked it anyhow. Sure enough in the Customers who bought this item… also bought… section was All-American Rejects. I put that into my cart…
