I just got back from the dentist. One of my fillings popped out a little while ago unbeknownst to me and it didn’t bother me until a couple days ago. Luckily I now have dental insurance, so there was really nothing keeping me from scheduling a right now appointment. In fact, the […]
LP News Online: March 2003: Manhattan Libertarians start (toy) Guns for Tots campaign
I think I need a “Links” subcategory for “Clueless People.” I grew up playing with guns with Kuwie and my brother. Some even shot projectiles. Not just foam balls, either, but potentially maiming BB’s and pellets. In fact, I […]
I was cleaning my room today and was concentrating on the tangled nest that my desk had become. You know how over time, receipts and things build up in your wallet? And then you have to go out in nice pants and it looks like you have three butt cheeks? So you […]
UPDATE: This was a spoof, as those of you who actually look at URLs will note. I thought something was up when there was the cnn.com@66.111.43.11 in there, but I was pretty tired last night. Thought maybe it was one one of the cnn servers kinda like the TimeCanada thing at last year’s […]
Perspective: The new jailbird jingle - Tech News - CNET.com

Friday night I dreamt that I was in an arena filled with people waiting to enter an open martial arts tournament. My parents and siblings were there with me. There was a crush of people waiting to get in and my dad pressed the registration form and check into my hand and told […]
Training is over! I’m free! To, hm. I’m not sure what I’m going to do with all this free time from now until April. Oh well, now that I’ve gotten a taste of 40 hour work week, I think I’m better equipped to enjoy the last vestiges of slacker life. […]
Tonight was the Buffalo Joe’s Brown Bag session of training, our little joke rebellion against the work brown bag presentations during lunch. This one’s topic was “Make fun of pretentious coworkers while eating wings.” It went very well.
The coolest part of orientation, besides the warm cookies, is meeting people from other offices. […]
My brother’s coworkers got me to go in on buying several copies of Warcraft III at a discount. Just picked it up from him and I’m itching to install it. I wish I had a laptop that could handle it. I’ll have one by summer.
Speaking of wanting gadgets, I dreamt last night […]
