2007 NFL Sunday Ticket Schedule
Since I live in Dallas, and have the hell of living in Cowboy land, one majorly huge lifeline for me is the NFL Sunday Ticket package on DirecTV. It allows me to watch pretty much whatever game I want, so I get to see all the Eagles games (I’m from Philly), and Steeler games (wife’s […]
Take you to the Number Four
You know how it is when you get songs stuck in your head, and you can’t get rid of them, right? Sometimes you luck out and you get a song you like, and it’s not so bad. Most of the time it’s something you don’t like, and the only way I’ve found to get rid […]
The iPhone
The iPhone has been out since last Friday. Everything I’ve read about it (and I’ve read A LOT) since last Friday has told me this thing would be a tech geek’s orgasm. It’s outstandingly pretty, the interface is everything I want. But Apple went and priced the darn things out of reach of most folks […]
RSS in Plain English
I’ve been using Google Reader for some time now. It’s my preferred method of visting sites. In fact, if a site doesn’t have a feed for it’s content, I probably am not going there. I find it’s a lot easier to read information this way. It’s also beneficial in that you don’t have to wade […]
Last of the Time Lords
The season finale of the current series of Doctor Who just aired in England over the weekend. I rather liked it, but then again I’m a Who nut, and will like most anything they do. :) Anyway, the finale did seem to borrow a lot of “elements” from other things that have already happened. In […]
Cher & her agent are an ass
Today is the launch of Apple’s iPhone. It’s funny, two guys from my office today are heading over to a store not too far from our office to try and get one later this afternoon. There’s iPhone stories all over the web today. But this one irked me. Check this: Movie stars, who are accustomed […]
Vote Bumps
This will probably amuse the guy who made the image, and perhaps one other person in the world, but I don’t care. It made me laugh. If you don’t get it, don’t worry about it. :)
Scared Stiff Pinball – Cameron Silver
My company has had a pinball machine in its offices for about a decade. It’s a really great machine called “Scared Stiff“. The theme is based around the character “Elvira: Mistress of the Dark”. As with most pinball machines, you can’t really get them anymore. Shame that they’re becoming such a rare thing. Anyways, since […]
Being Tired
You ever get so tired that your eyes hurt, and your body is aching, and your mind says “Look fool, go to sleep”, as your brain registers that it’s 2:30AM? But you’re not in the least tired? That’s where I am now. I should be asleep, but I just can’t bring myself to do it. […]
Federal Law Enforcement
I’m a big fan of the band Queensryche, who tend to write a lot of politically charged songs. Anyway, their 1991 album, “Empire” contained a song with the following lyrics. In fiscal year 1986 to 1987, local state and federal governments spent up to a combined total of 60.6 million dollars on law enforcement. Federal […]
