There is a big fat, Indiana farm bread, Basketball-talking, slack face lookin', Mormon-on-a-mission-like-dressing, buzz-cut wearing, thinking he is a wheeling-and-dealing salesman young guy sitting at the table over, trying to sell god knows what to this older guy. I've seen so many guys like him. I don't know if it is a Indiana specific breed or ( Read more... )

The subject is a quote from a Jethro Tull song that I've had in my head for what seems like forever now. No real meaning, just think it's cool.

So ya, I havn't been posting for a while. This is primarily because of two things. One, the fact that hilhas1 very nastily broke her leg while we were in Austria and since then my primary job has been making sure ( Read more... )

I'm still getting used to the short hair and trying to find a style that I like. I don't like the part down the middle, which my hair does naturally b/c of how long it was. So, I'm trying a bunch of things. Did something a bit different today and hilhas1 liked it. She took this picture and thought I should post it:

What American accent do you have?
Your Result: The Inland North

You may think you speak "Standard English straight out of the dictionary" but when you step away from the Great Lakes you get asked annoying questions like "Are you from Wisconsin?" or "Are you from Chicago?" Chances are you call carbonated drinks "pop."

It's amazing the things you can learn from web comics such as Goats.com. For example, I never knew that reality as we preceive it is created by the constant dance of Machine Elves. How did I go through life for 30 years so far and never hear about this? There MUST be some sort of Government/Illuminati/Mason coverup going on here!

Sometimes I feel like my days are filled with herding cats. All I seem to do is go from one person to the next asking about XYZ, is XYZ done yet, if not, when is XYZ expected. The people respond with Oh XYZ isn't done yet because I've had to spend my time on EFG. And then I have to say no, no, no, we need XYZ. Of course the reason I ask people ( Read more... )

I think I'm getting re-addicted to LJ now. I keep on thinking "Oh! I should post that!" and so forth. We'll see how long it lasts.

Anyway, hilhas1 and I are hooked on a very, very cool BBC show that somebodystrange told us about. It's called Life On Mars. It's about a modern day Manchester cop who gets hit by a car and wakes up in 1973. It's got this cool "Learning ( Read more... )

hilhas1 asked me for a birthday gift list and all I said was Lowes Gift cards. Stupid house, making me wish for perfectly usefullish things for my birthday instead of things like XBox 360s or new fangled PDA phones ( Read more... )

After cetan_feed pointed out something that bugged me too about "The Boxer" layout, I decided to play around with some of the other styles. Don't know if I like this one or not yet, though it's nice to see LJ added some more since I last looked. I know you can really get technical with these styles and all, and I might look into that too, but for now, I'm ( Read more... )
