Starting The Podcast

Monday, February 28th, 2005

I have said that I would get my podcasting s**t together this week and I will. I had wanted to finish my taxes first, just to be a good boy. It’s not looking good, however, and I may just end up giving up and going back to the woman who did them last [...]

The Oscars

Sunday, February 27th, 2005

I had to debate with myself on whether to put his under arts/tv or arts/movies. I figure since it is actually TV about movies, it should go under the tv section.
That being said, who gives a crap about the Oscars anyways? The fact that cornball junk like this has gained such a position [...]

I’m Full Of It

Sunday, February 27th, 2005

Okay, I know that most readers will not be shocked by the title of this post. Most are well aware of my status of being nearly filled to the brim with crap. But this is a particularly egregious example of my personal hypocrisy.
After making this particularly hostile statement towards upgrading Quicken, I went [...]

Should Versus Want

Saturday, February 26th, 2005

Do you ever end up with two major things to do, one that you want to do and the other you should do? I do quite often. When that happens, I usually refuse to start on the want thing until the should thing is finished. Bu since I don’t want to do [...]

Bejeweled 2

Friday, February 25th, 2005

Years ago my brother introduced me to a little game on his PDA (or whatever it was called then) that was called Bejeweled. It has other names including Diamond Mine. It is an addictive little game for sure. I’ve wasted many a good hour moving little shapes around for no apparent reason [...]

So Tired

Thursday, February 24th, 2005

I am about as exhausted as I can possibly be and still be able to function. I’m not functioning well, but I am functioning.
Looks like this Rover is no more! He has ceased
to be! ‘E’s expired and gone to meet ‘is maker! ‘E’s a stiff! Bereft of life, ‘e rests in peace! If we [...]

Skype

Tuesday, February 22nd, 2005

I downloaded Skype tonight. I haven’t installed it yet as I am just too tired to continue on. I will mess with it on Friday when I’m off. After that I will post my contact info so that y’all can call me for free. That’ll be cool.

Wrecked

Monday, February 21st, 2005

The good news is that I’m alright. The bad news is the the Rover is not. Despite my mechanical background, I’m no expert in the calculus of deciding whether to fix or total a vehicle. My guess is that the Land Rover will soon be an ex-Land Rover. Just guessing from [...]

Cleaning and Painting and Raking

Sunday, February 20th, 2005

Yesterday was spent in a bit of Suburban Utopia. We raked the yard, cleaned the house, caught up with the laundry, and painted a few spots of the fascia that got replaced at the same time as the roof. It was the kind of beautiful day that I dreamed of when I decided to [...]

Sporadic

Wednesday, February 16th, 2005

My posts have been sporadic, at best, lately. I know. This rotating shift business is for the birds. I will try to catch you up on some of the goings on of the Slusher family, the Automan Empire and my journey towards starting a podcast in the next couple of weeks.
