Let Me Start From The Start

What are you doing reading this? Look at your window. see that sunlight? Imagine being out in that sun. Now look closer. See those trees gently waving in the breeze? Imagine that breeze on your skin. I know i sure am. I'm chained to my desk for another 17 minutes, then I'm out in that beautiful weather for the week.

Oh, yeah, can you guess the name of the song I stole lyrics from for my title?

Apologies if you read this when it's cold and rainy.

Switcheroo

Lon is a switching maniac! first switching from PC to the Mac, now switching from MovableType to Wordpress! Rumors indicate we're switching from Deadlands to Arcana Unearthed. What's next? Replacing ground turkey with REAL beef? throwing out the fat free cream cheese and only allowing his bagels to be covered with good stuff? trading that wimpy Hyundai for a real car? boxers to boxer-briefs? upgrading to friends who don't redicule you? naw, he'd never do that…

New Zealand Needs A New Hobby

I saw this headline on the BBC's website: "NZ's famous sheep gets TV haircut"

all I can say about his is that Peter Jackson better get back to NZ and start making some movies cause they are apparently starved for human interest stories on that island.

Sniff… Sniff… OK, You’re Cool.

DAP, or Dog Appeasing Pheremone has been shown to reduce barking and make dogs more friendly to strangers. I can't wait until we combine HAP (Human Appeasing Pheremone) with Smellovision. If only I could give a dose of this to irrate help desk callers.

People Are Things To Be Used

that's pretty much what the president is saying with his actions in this video clip. During a commercial break on The David Letterman Show Mr. President used a staffer as a HUMAN KLEENEX. Nice.

Sliders == NOPE.

A recent experiment appears to have invalidated the Many Worlds Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics. Damn. This one was my favorite, too.

Kills a lot of good science fiction with cold hard science reality though.

Ah, That’s Better

I found some really neat themes for Wordpress. Depending how motivated I am, I may move the old cro.wox.org content over, if it doesn't seem like too much work. it probably will seem that way, I am quite lazy. Next I'll have to figure out how to post pictures from my phone.
