I miss the Hooters

  • byJoe Siegler
  • Posted on April 7, 2004April 14, 2025

Who are the Hooters? The Hooters are a band from Philadelphia who were popular around there, with limited appeal beyond Philadelphia (that I was aware of, anyway) in the mid/late 80’s. They’re called that because of an instrument that they play called a “Melodica”, whose nickname is the Hooter. Normally I like stuff like Black […]

Not Dubya (not that he’s an MIT grad anyway), but I’m talking about his twit brother Jeb Bush. Not only did his state cause a complete fiasco in the last presidential election, but now he goes and DOES SOMETHING AS STUPID AS THIS. What’s the message here? Act like a total jackass and you’ll get […]

The future

  • byJoe Siegler
  • Posted on April 1, 2004December 14, 2022

As I sit here at my desk, I realize I’ve forgotten to turn on my speakers, and forgot to run this program. I wish I could have an office and house like Marty McFly had in Back to the Future II. When you walk in the door, everything happens automatically. This turns on, that starts […]

I love British TV. I know a lot of folks who like British TV are zealots about it, watching every single show that’s produced. I’m not quite like that, but the ones I do like I like a lot, so I tend to know a ton about them. Over the past weekend, two of the […]

Tripping the Rift

  • byJoe Siegler
  • Posted on March 23, 2004January 28, 2023

Awhile back, I was shown a short film off the Internet called Tripping the Rift. It was quite funny, and it was fairly adult in nature in that it had no problems with either language, or nudity. Except for the nudity, it kind of reminded me of the online short film that launched Beavis & […]

What is this?

  • byJoe Siegler
  • Posted on March 19, 2004December 14, 2022

A couple of weeks ago I saw some odd looking things attached to a few streetlights around town. Attached here is a picture of one of them – taken about two blocks or so from my house. It’s not just this particular neighbhorhood, I’ve seen them in a few places in and around Garland. Anyone […]

A fun little game

  • byJoe Siegler
  • Posted on March 14, 2004December 14, 2022

At Christmas, my wife bought me a couple of videogames. One was an expansion pack for Sim City 4, and the other was SimGolf. I did not ask for SimGolf, my wife remembered a comment I had made awhile back “I hate golf, but I love golf games”. So when she was in the store […]

New Nickels

  • byJoe Siegler
  • Posted on March 4, 2004December 14, 2022

My wife and I have been a big fan of the State Quarter program that the US government put into place in 1999 (we finally get my state’s quarter this year – TEXAS!). Anyway, there was that dollar coin introduced in 2000, which again failed to make much of a splash – I don’t think […]

March is such a tease of a month. It’s the month before the greatest sport in the world (Yeah, it has problems, but what doesn’t) gets rolling. That is, of course, baseball. However, the most annoying part is all the godawful “March Madness” crap that we have to wade through in the meantime. In a […]

Metric Confusion

  • byJoe Siegler
  • Posted on February 29, 2004December 14, 2022

I was sitting here tonight, and this thought just popped into my head. For a country that deals in figures like gallons and miles, why is it that our soda cans are in ounces, but our big plastic soda bottles are in litres? Excuse me, but I don’t think our country ever adopted the metric […]
