Virtual Moving May 31, 2005
While my DSL line and aging webserver were fine for my needs a while ago, I’m outgrowing them. So, I think it’s time for me to pare things down a little bit and look into external hosting options.

Blade: Trinity May 30, 2005
I just got finished watching Blade: Trinity. While I’m certainly not going to make any claims about it being a good movie, it ended up being far more entertaining than I expected it to be (and probably more than it had any real right to be).

Catch up? You’re kidding, right? May 30, 2005
This is what happens when I spend an entire weekend out running around and having fun, stopping by the computer just long enough to import, prepare, and upload photos.

Folklife 2005 May 30, 2005
As anyone who’s been watching my Flickr photostream is (painfully?) aware of by now, this entire weekend was spent primarily wandering around this year’s Northwest Folklife Festival.

No kidding? May 26, 2005
See, in my line of work you got to keep repeating things over and over and over again for the truth to sink in, to kind of catapult the propaganda.

Semen May 26, 2005
I’m not sure what amuses me more: that someone would take the time to write ‘semen’ out with chewed gum, or that I’d spend the time to turn it into a cutout.

Little Fluffy Clouds May 26, 2005
As soon as I got off from work I made a quick swing through home to drop off my bag, then spent the next two hours wandering around, people watching and taking photos.

Mom Visits! May 26, 2005
I got to spend a nice few hours yesterday with Mom as she passed through Seattle on the tail end of a quick trip to see some family and friends scattered around the lower 48.

Writing Assignment May 24, 2005
I actually think this is an old joke that I’ve heard before, but it got a good laugh out of me today when Thom posted it…

Episode III: Pros and Cons May 23, 2005
Mike messaged me on iChat this evening after getting back from watching Star Wars Episode III. Our conversation ended up touching on most, if not all, of the points I’ve had wandering around in my head and was planning on using for a more in-depth review than the one I gave previously. So, with his permission, I’m reposting our conversation here.

Love Battle May 23, 2005
Ideologies and slogans are going to be battling it out in the Seattle area next month. In the (far) right corner: Love Won Out, a ‘national campaign to treat homosexuality as preventable.’ In the left corner: Love Welcomes All, a counter-conference organized by PFLAG.

2005 Sci-Fi/Fantasy Films May 23, 2005
Dori’s got a very handy list of this year’s Sci-Fi and Fantasy films that are likely to be potential Hugo Award nominees. Some I’ve seen, most I’ve heard of, but there were a few listed that I didn’t know about — including a new Terry Gilliam film!

Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith May 20, 2005
In brief and spoiler-free: I know Episode I stank, and Episode II was better, but still nowhere near what we’d all been hoping for. Episode III, while not perfect, is far better than either of the prior two prequels, and — believe it or not — stands as a worthy addition to the series.

Feed types May 19, 2005
Looking at the Google AdSense for Feeds announcement, Scoble takes a moment to rank the various basic types of feeds that can be produced now. Dead-on, I’d say.

Hi there! May 19, 2005
It’s raining pretty decently right now, so I ducked into the Convention Center on my way home for lunch. Walking past the lower level shops on my way to the elevator, I spotted a girl in the beauty salon sitting with a pomeranian propped up in her lap.

May Meetup report, I’ve got a doppelganger running around town, and Star Wars fans are fun to photograph. All in all, not a bad evening!

Back again… May 18, 2005
No clue why, but for some reason my DSL modem apparently froze up somewhere around 3pm this afternoon. I’ve reset it and we’re back up and running, but it looks like my site was effectively down for about two hours.

Top 12 Things A Klingon Programmer Would Say May 18, 2005
Seeing as how old school programmers think like Klingon programmers, I believe that it can be reasonably assumed that all old programmers are Klingon.
