Running Man

There’s nothing like wearing new shoes to a run. Well, I take that back, there’s nothing like replacing your old not-so-good shoes with something else.
I went running today with a new pair of shoes, they were so much better than my old ones, only because my previous ones were, well, old. The new [...]

Edumacation 2005

So the school year officially started yesterday for us here on campus. Wasn’t really that much of a change for me, since I’ve been coming here for work for a year now, but now I have a full course load to tackle as well, good thing I’m going part time.

IM What IM

Well everybody should already know about Google Talk by now. Well I’m all for it, I’m going to try and start to convert folks to it. Why you ask? Simple, it’s A Good Thing ™.

In no particular order and I’m talking non-stop listening here people, non-stop. Especially intoxicating is track #3 on Frances The Mute, “L’Via L’Viaquez”, 12 minutes and 27 seconds of pure eyes-closed exhilaration. Strange since almost the whole song [...]

It’s Always Sunny In Virginia

Holy warm crap on me. I just watched the funniest show, possibly of the entire year, freakin’ ever. Yes I realize that sentence made a lot of sexy sense, but at least it’s better than another crude hooker joke…for now. Any-freakin-way…
It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia
If you get the FX Channel, please try [...]

Blog Baby

So I’ve always wanted a good digital camera (I got one back in 1997, it was a whopping 1.3 megapixel FujiFilm that sucked AAA battery power like a hooker trying to reach her quota). I’d always check out the new models, play around with them at Circuit City or whatever, but ultimately decide not [...]
