Does this look like a fish to you?
I’ve been a Star Trek fan for as long as I can remember. I won’t relay that story again, but suffice it to say I have comitted more pieces of my brain to retaining Star Trek stuff than I probably should have. One of my all time favorite episodes is The Immunity Syndrome, where Kirk’s […]
Doctor Who Trivia
This is some research I did on the 10 actors who have played The Doctor on the TV show “Doctor Who” in regards to ‘length of service’. I needed a place to put this, so my blog is it. Note: Since David Tennant is the current doctor, these stats cover the 2007 series that is […]
My Xbox 360 Died
Saturday is the day my wife works, and Daddy gets to take care of Samantha. As that’s gone on awhile now, I’ve gotten better at it, and I find true enjoyment at spending time with my daughter, and watching her grow up right in front of me. Still, I do enjoy nap time. :) So […]
Raping a Dead Guy
You’d never actually want to do that, but that’s what someone is doing to Jimi Hendrix. The best way to honor one of our best all time guitarists is to name some sort of energy drink after him, isn’t it? I mean why not dig up his corpse, and set what’s left on fire? Wouldn’t […]
Jack in the Box is for drunks and stoners
Ran across a rather funny entry on a baseball blog I read daily. It’s actually about fast food joints in the United States. This article covers the author’s opinions on the majors (McDonalds, Burger King, Wendy’s, etc), and other smaller regional places like Dairy Queen, Sonic, White Castle, and Jack in the Box. It’s quite […]
Wayanay Inka
Several years ago my wife and I ran across a band by the name of Wayanay Inka at the State Fair of Texas. We got rather enamoured with them, and their appearances at the State Fair were one of our favorite things to look forward to. Unfortunately in 2005 and 2006 they were not asked […]
Hey man, is that Freedom Rock? Well, turn it up, man!
The popularity of YouTube has given rise to collections like this. This video is taken from an article called “The 50 Greatest TV Commercials of the 80’s“. Given the 80’s happened when I was 15-25, I remember just about all of this stuff. A huge trip down memory lane for someone who grew up in […]
Robbing banks
Anyone who knows me knows I get a boatload of email, and of course, insane amounts of spam. The last time I tracked it, I had something like half a million pieces of it myself in a calendar year – so I see a lot of it. Given I do professional work in email, I […]
Walk Like an Egyptian
My wife and I just got done watching one of those “Top 100” things on VH1 Classic, as that’s what they do best. This one was specifically about 80’s music, and after watching it, I have this random comment to make: The Lyrics for “Walk like an Egyptian” are quite stupid if you try and […]
