I’ve decided that I am not, in fact, “coo coo for Cocopuffs.”

From MeFi: It’s a happy day! It’s a frightening day!

Final Fantasy X is a great game. The ending is frustrating at first, but makes sence once you stop and think about it. I beat it after about 60 hours and it was a little challenging. But after 20 more hours of leveling up and obtaining 2 of the ultimate weapons, it was too easy (final boss dead in only 3 hits!). I think the only reason for getting your characters stong (besides being a complete uber geek) is to fight the monster creations. Some of those have over 1 million HP. Leathal.

Rez is the next cool thing. So trippy …

Bionic Design is cool.

Iron Chef USA sucks! My god what a complete waste of air time! I can’t wait for Food Network’s marathon this Friday … it’ll get the bad taste outta my mouth.

In other news … the American economy was given a boost this weekend (that’s our excuse) as Ben bought an Xbox (Dead or Alive 3 kicks ass!), Steven bought a mini DV camera, and I bought a PS2 (and Casey, who does not hate her job, was displeased). Long live the techno obsessed public!

Halo 13 is now open

Due to a loop hole in British law … human cloning will begin! About damn time.

I love pumpkin pie. I love pecan pie. I love dressing. I love mom’s home made fudge! I love this time of year: the food the best.

There is a train somewhere near my house … I hear it several times a day. That faint train whistle is almost comforting. After 24 years, it’s a sound of home — maybe I’ll leave it some day. And there are others: Every morning at 8am, a whistle blows at the plant on the river. My mom used to work there. I remember going to preschool and hearing that sound … and now I still hear it as I drive to my job. Small towns …

I think I need a new design for this site … I’m not really interested in the photos, files, or mp3’s anymore. Something blog only. Test 1 kinda thing … only better looking.

I took out a bunch of older bloggs … The blog file was approaching 80k. I need to come up with an archiving method.

Srfstn is right, the new Austrailian inFRONT is beautiful!

Somehow I got myself on a Korean porn mailing list. Every few days I get a nicely formatted html newsletter emailed to me. I must admit that they look much nicer than the American porn spam that fills up my Hotmail account. Maybe, if I spoke Korean, I could get myself unsubscribed?

Kakkoii Heavy 8 is out and it works on a Mac this time. They just keep getting smaller and smaller …

Oh hell! It’s FILLERBUNNY!!!

Last year my grandmother fell in love with a Furby. I wonder what she’d do with an Aibo LM Series? These things are pretty cool! And at only $850, who wouldn’t buy one? I think it’d be a fun toy to have … only what would my cat do with it? The new ERS-220 looks pretty sweet too!

Habitat is a REALLY nice site. It’s just packed with goodies and is very easy to navigate. Kudos to Digit on this design!

This story quotes a warning on Alabama biology books as reading:
evolution is “a controversial theory. … Instructional material associated with controversy should be approached with an open mind, studied carefully, and critically considered.”
It’s sad that they [the Xtian politicians] don’t treat their own beliefs and those of others with such open mindedness. Many people fail to realize that science is a learning PROCESS … gaps in the fossil record only mean that the fossils haven’t been found but will eventually be. I guess these people just need their beliefs force fed to them [and others!] without discovering something on their own.

Thankfully, the Church of Reality is here.

A new project came up at Duke, so now I’m stabily employed again. For a while.

Since this whole “9-11” thing started, I’ve been completly uninterested in updating this blog. I don’t know what is the cause … mine and I think everyone’s feelings are so crazy the moment. I’m starting to be concerned about this turning into an Xtian vs. Muslim holy war also.
All of these antrax cases are starting to scare me. My girlfriend’s employer (a nursing home) has a nice stock of Ciprol. Maybe I could have her “borrow” a little for me? :P Not that it would help much.

I ordered an Oppala chair from Ikea. Pretty comfortable.

My Athlon 1.13ghz overclocked to 1.32 pretty easily and would prolly go much higher with better cooling. I’d like to upgrade to an Athlon XP asap. No real reason, just on a power benge.

I’m out of a job again at the end of the month: my contract at Duke ends. If you’re interested in a web site from me, please email me. Quotes are based on the project, so be descriptive. Full time positions in the Charlotte, NC area are very welcome also.
