A good weekend

May 4, 2008 – 9:48 pm

Jamila was here and that was great. There’s no need to recap all the random things we did, but the major accomplishment was that we finally got off our collective butts and started looking at homes.
As it turned out, my current landlord is looking to unload a marvelous 3-story house down the street. It’s wonderful [...]

Why I completely suck at blogging…

April 23, 2008 – 9:47 pm

Preamble:
This document explains why I suck at blogging.
Narrative:
So…here it is, the answer to the burning question of why I suck. And, well, I truly do suck at blogging; there’s no doubt about it.
Summary:
I suck because:
1. I’m too lazy to pepper my entries with links
2. I don’t care to write techy entries about techy stuff
3. [...]

it has to be said…

So the latest trend here seems to be that if you own a specific make of car, you go out and get a gigantic sticker with that make’s logo on it and put it on your back window.
I’d like to say, first off, that the Dodge logo looks like a vagina.
So, all these big truck dudes [...]

Sunday, Cliff and I went to Ernie’s for brunch. We were having our typical pseudo-philosophical conversation, which is why I love Cliff.
As we were checking out, Cliff was talking about how he believed most people were inherently too weak-minded to control themselves (and thus people want control subconsciously). I asked him if he’d read Leviathan since [...]

Just for kicks, I used the http://www.kcata.org website to map out a potential trip from my apartment to my office. This is a 30 minute trip by car in rush hour traffic.
The only route available has me leaving at 8:18 am (I’d already be late for work by then) and arriving nearly a mile away [...]

I JUST STOLE YOUR FISH

April 14, 2008 – 11:29 am

‘Twas a weekend of misadventures. I will not recount the entire story of the greatest misadventure of them all, I will only give you what the title of it would look like:
“So, about the day I mistakenly walked into a strip bar in the ‘hood…”
Anyway. I spent a lot of my weekend making bricks out [...]

So, I’ve been at my new job for about three weeks now. If I had to summarize it in one word, I’d just say “busy”.
One thing I’m becoming increasingly more intrigued about is how silly Search Engine Optimization is. I guess the end result is great if you’re looking to make tons of cash, but [...]

A true story…

March 30, 2008 – 10:47 am

So last night I decided to go to Pizza Hut. I’m not sure if you’ve been paying attention or not, but things in the fast-food world seem to have shifted so that the laziest of all customers get the highest priority. What I mean is that you get served faster in drive-through or by getting [...]
