ENG101: Analysis: A Blogger is Just a Writer With a Cooler Name January 30, 2006
I got my first paper back in my ENG101 class today. The only comment given by my teacher was, “superb,” and I got a 3.9/4.0, or 95/100 — it would have been perfect, except that I forgot to include a ‘memo of self-reflection.’ Oops. Still, I think I can cope with the final grade.

Ultraviolet January 26, 2006
Or, to put it another way: Milla Jovovich + tight outfits + promising effects + promising action = my ass is in the theatre.

An’ that’s the truth! January 25, 2006
If those bible-thumpers really want a conundrum, how about this? If you take the word ‘presbyterians’ and rearrange the letters…it spells ‘Britney Spears’.

Dad’s on Flickr January 25, 2006
After having some recurring problems with the Gallery software that we’d been using for the Hanscom Family Gallery, I decided to throw in the towel and talked dad into putting his Flickr account to use. I’m so glad I did.

Pimp my A95 January 24, 2006
In the end, much amusement was had, and my little A95 went through a lot of quite silly experiments. This is the kind of stuff that happens on a slow day in a camera shop. Can’t say that I’m complaining.

Attention Tomato Scouts! January 23, 2006
Not only is Jason gracing us with a free song every week (starting this week), but the old, mostly broken, overrun-by-spam guestbook has been replaced with a new, not at all broken forum. And there was much rejoicing.

Seahawks 34, Panthers 14 January 22, 2006
Y’know, I don’t care about football. Never have. But even I can’t be a complete curmudgeon about the Seahawks’ win today.

Japanese Manhole Covers January 22, 2006
Something of particular interest to Josh, I’d think, with his Drainspotting project: a gallery of beautiful Japanese manhole covers.

Give him a fling… January 20, 2006
Remember the kinda-cool, kinda-creepy flash thing with the girl falling through and bouncing off of a bunch of bubbles? This is that again…but better.

Beastie Boys are the new Bon Jovi January 19, 2006
The camera-toting fans took those instructions to heart. They shot the band, they shot the fans, they shot their fellow camera operators. Four even took their cameras along on their bathroom breaks.

French Headmaster Dooced January 19, 2006
The headmaster of a technical school in Lozere, France, has been dismissed after discovery of his anonymously-written weblog, which was deemed obscene and pornographic. Apparently he was discovered when he posted his photo in a recent entry.

Disaffected! January 17, 2006
Disaffected! - a videogame parody of the Kinko’s copy store, a source of frustration from its patrons. Disaffected! puts the player in the role employees forced to service customers under the particular incompetences common to a Kinko’s store.

Martin Luther King Day January 16, 2006
Three items caught my eye today: The New Yorker’s reprinted account of the march from Selma to Montgomery, Alabama; Dr. King’s speech, which I’d never actually read in its entirety before; and dad’s recollection of marching in a rally in Kokomo, IN, after Dr. King’s assassination.

Happy Battlestar Galactica Bunny January 16, 2006
I have no idea where or when I found this, but it just turned up while cleaning out my ‘downloads’ directory. The middle one’s my favorite.
