Wow, I sent a request to this site AGES ago; at least 2 or 3 months. I suppose that they hand-craft each electron into quality ASCII text that is then lovingly sent back to the requester… I’m sure I thought that finding my personal name of God, whatever that is, was humorous at the time. [...]
Read more →I don’t like rich kids that revel in their stupidity and distance from the average person; prefering instead to buy $5000 pre-distressed jeans in the coolest stores in Hollywood while carting around their rat dog in their purse. I don’t make any secrets of disliking Paris Hilton and her peers; they’re putting out a very [...]
Read more →Good Grief has a bit of a thread growing about what people remember as their first email address. While I don’t imagine that I have anyone beat, here’s my bit. Hmmm… I can only find a pair of my old addresses now – I know that there was another, earlier one from 1990 or so [...]
Read more →I remember saying something like “I feel a bit lightheaded; maybe you should drive…” I’m sure everyone has heard, but it has taken a bit of time to think of something to say… I read Ken’s piece and rather liked it.

I’m sure I missed out on some IRC backchannel discussions, but I’m not too worried. My [...]

Read more →In a piece in Online Journalism Review, Stephen King (I’m sorry, Stephen, but I think of Salem’s Lot every time I see your name…) alludes to the fact that some of the current stable of b—gers will be kept around for the next round. This begs the question about who stays and who goes. Will [...]
Read more →Okay, I caved and joined the “Fantasy Apprentice” game at Yahoo! a bit late, and was pleasantly surprised to see this screen when I went to the site to check my predictions against the show as it progressed. I didn’t expect that the page would give away the ending when I visited, though. MOST sites [...]
Read more →Okay, that’s it. No more mention of the word b— in this website. I’ve found that the Google Adsense ads along the side are loaded down with "B— for free" and "Dummies guide to B—ging" and other useless ads that don’t pay a cent. Those ads, when clicked on, tend to lead to business sites [...]
