Eggs and Making Light of a House
I haven’t been up to too much, just hangin out, workin, bought a house, and makin eggs.(check out the other sets, my pumpkin from Holloween is in there)
Zodiac Movie
Check out the Crime Scenes – Apparently a new movie about a series of murders in 1989. I like the idea of a modern movie taking place in a realistic time period. One that I can actually watch and recognize the time period while getting all nostalgic. I’m posting it because it’s a superbly done flash site, and a good example of what can be done with modern web authoring.

>The Good News
>It's confirmed – XM & Sirius are merging.I just heard it on Cosmo of all places. It's hard to get live radio without Howard.I tuned to Playboy first, and they were talking about commercials they had seen. If I really want to do that I'd talk to the guys at work. It's mind numbing, and the same reason I don't listen to Maxim – like a college party without drinking. I'm sure it has to go through regulatory approval, and last I knew FCC stated they like having 2 companies because competition is good. I'm not really pleased because I…
>Patenting Life
>Check out this OpEd article in the NY Times by Michael Crichton. It’s called “Patenting Life” and it’s about the dangers of patents in the genome industry. I love anything he writes, and it’s an interesting topic.
>I love these guys
>I am sure this will screw up the blog's appearance until I translate, but check out this thread:http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p=952954#post952954 Blu-Ray and HD-DVD cracked with the same key! I love the people of doom9, that site is the teh suck!!!111! oneone
>I’m old?
>I really am old. I've got the 80s station on, but it's not the 80s station. It's the music I remember listening to when I was a teenager and I LOVE IT. Sirius just added channel 24 – LITHIUM – 90s AlternativeI could listen to it all day, I wouldn't care if this is all I had on Sirius. I feel old though because #1 – none of this stuff is on anymore, #2 I get real excited when I hear some of these… and #3 "my music" is now on a station of it's own apart from "modern rock"…

>Lilly Allen
>I’m not sure what to make of this chick. Is she Spanish, is she from the UK? Is she a spanish chick from the UK? It sounds a bit like Avril, as in lyrical depth but she has a good voice. I saw her on SNL this week and didn’t know what to make. She seems young, with a Spanish feel… like, from Spain. Exotic. I like her music, and there’s a Sirius Exclusive Remix of Lilly Allen – “Smile” [it’s OGG format], and some MP3s direct from her unsecured Flash music player on her website. These are really the…
>Bruce Campbell
>This month’s theme is Bruce Campbell. I came in while Nicole was watching Charmed – sure enough: Bruce Campbell as a Witch Hunter. When Chris and Kelly came over the other night we were paroozing OnDemand and ended up watching: Bubba HotepNow I’m watching Congo streaming via Netflix and looksie here: Bruce Campbell.It’s been a long time since I’ve seen it, didn’t realize he was even in Congo. So find yourself some Bruce Campbell, in many a movie.If you already have Netflix:

Well in honor of the groundhog not seeing his shadow (14th time since 1883) – lets make fun of him![ Caption the Groundhog! ]
Can’t Deny That Marketing Campaign Got Some Exposure
It worked. You couldn’t ask for a better viral marketing campaign.I’ll give you a hint, bottom left:[(zoom)]
>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…
