TB-Mobile
I didn’t realize it, but my German T-Mobile SIM card ran outta cash, thought it was just a network problem, only incoming worked but outgoing anything was kaput. Took a couple days for me to realize it…and my friend translated what the automated Germany lady’s voice was saying.
No wonder incoming worked, incoming anything is [...]
Deutschland Days 01-04
Day 1
I find myself staring out the window and up at the clouds, smiling since I have actually landed and the gigantic cloud cover, an ingredient in my favorite weather, always makes me hopeful. Upon exiting the plane the smile continues to stretch, not possible I thought, but the cold weather in the middle [...]
Lost My Review
So I finally got around to watching Lost, everybody’s fav addiction. Having only watched the first two episodes and never watching a sliver of any of the other episodes, my review may not match everybody’s (or my future) impression. So what do I think? Well written and acting is above average for [...]
There’s Something On The Wing
Just got on the plane, with a layover in London. Sure are a lotta British accents flying around. Whoops, announcer lady just came on, gotta turn my cell off now, later. Will try to send something when in the U.K.
TB #67
That’s some hardcore intimacy…good thing it’s probably a fake.
Joe Jobbed

If you know me, you know how hard I tried to [...]
Center Of The Galaxy
One of my all time fav bands, Muse, is releasing another album! Black Holes And Revelations, scheduled to be released July 3, 2006.
Here’s what Bellamy had to say about the first single, Supermassive Black Hole:
It’s the most different to anything we’ve ever done. We’ve had some Belgian influences: Millionaire, dEUS, Evil Superstars, Soulwax… These [...]
Anticipation Is Better…Sometimes
Went home a couple days ago after finals, taking a break plus I had to take care of some stuff. Stuff related to my BIG NEWS!
What stuff you say? Well, I had to get some stuff so that I could start packing for the Summer. I’m headed to Germany for 2 months, [...]
Finals Frontier
Damn finals.
Plus, why the crap do vending machines return your money in quarters when you put in a dollar bill? Holy crap, you piece of scheisse, you were freaking sold out and now I gotta carry change in my pocket!
Damn finals.
WIPO Broadcast Treaty
WIPO is going to screw us, it’s the Broadcast Treaty:
If adopted, the WIPO treaty will give broadcasters copyright-like control over the content of their broadcasts, even when they have no copyright in what they show. A TV channel broadcasting your Creative Commons-licensed movie could legally demand that no one record or redistribute it – and [...]
