Back and Alive

Got back late Sunday night from Edmonton with little (no) fanfair. The weekend was fun and de-stressing, and nice and cool thanks to Darrens houses basement and shaded backyard (compared to the 900 degree temps we’re getting here). The Darren birthday party was fun and I met a couple of folks again, and a couple […]

To Be Rich and/or Famous

Or at least, recognized. Sometimes I wonder what criteria it takes to do something like this. The Image of the Day site had a picture of an “artist” whose “art” was to put more than 300 pounds of sliced ham on a bed. No, I don’t get it either. But that doesn’t mean I don’t

Last Weekend Wrap Up

Argh! Stupid mouse is messed up and the scroll wheel moves the mouse right (KVM issue, box needs reboot and all will be well), so I just accidently closed my browser window in the middle of a preview, losing a big ass entry 🙁 I’ll summarize below. Last weekend had lan party. Was good. Beer

Note To Self #874

Drinking a cup of tea at 9:30pm, even if it tastes really good and is a nice way to relax after a long day, is still a really bad idea. On the upside though, what I won’t get in sleep I’ll make up for in writing and surfing….

Productive Weekend

Dishes, garbage, cleaning off my desk, finishing up my accounting to deal with the taxes from the other week, cleaning out my wallet of reciepts, getting computer stuff fixed up, cleaning up some mp3s, sweeping the house, doing some shopping, going for a run, getting my paypal account confirmed so I can get money out,
