Except of course “Darkness = 100%” should have been worked in there somewhere…

Counting My Blessings

Thursday, June 26th, 2008

Sometimes I think it’s important to take a step back and be grateful for the talents we have which we usually take for granted.
For example, I have the ability to watch a DVD, without subsequently dragging a cheese grater across it when I’m done. I’ve never thought much about it, but judging by the condition [...]

and yet…

…in one week, Obama has twice reminded me why he was my third or fourth choice at best.
I may have to vote Nader after all.

Yikes.
Man, I don’t know if I can trust Mr. Ridley any more after this! Ha, I tease, [...]

Free To a Good Home

Just a quick interjection here, can anyone use a couple of Dell T0529 compatible black ink cartridges? I’ve got two that were shipped to me by mistake. It’s a remanufactured knock off brand, but I’ve had good results with their epson products. If anyone wants ‘em, say the word.

A question..

..for the slimy Republican shill currently spouting off on Dan Abrams’ show –
do you really think it helps your cause to try and coin a phrase that’s phonetically indistinguishable from “Obama Nation”?

The three types who understand binary

Sunday, June 15th, 2008

A nugget of common wisdom in the world of computer programming speaks to the division of programmers into two basic categories (we do like things in binary…) — those who code because they love it, live it, and would be doing it even without the paycheck, and those who do it because someone told them [...]
