I was just thinking about those "what's your favorite ____?" quiz/survey things and how they were probably created by some advertising genius. I mean, livejournal was probably created with the same thing in mind. All these "interests" floating around, it's pretty easy for advert moguls (no, not muggles) to scope out potential markets and better ( Read more... )

So lets hear it for hangovers!

My boss at Two Bob, the documentary production company I work at, just signed me up for two audio classes at 911 Media Arts. One of the classes starts next Thursday and continues for two more Thursdays, the other isn't untill June, so I'll have to make plans to remember that one. I really should look into taking more classes there, it's just that I ( Read more... )

Klingons and Jedis aplenty, that place was a nerd fantasyland, literally. Badass.

Had a great lunch at the grill across the street, got in two good games of Dn'D 3rd with some guys we met, and danced our asses off 'till they ( Read more... )

Scientology is so damn funny. And insane. I just love to hear dumbass celebrities rave about how brilliant that nut Hubbard was. I mean, who would really wanna join the same church as Kirsty Ally and John Travolta? Has anyone ever seen those movies they did together?

We have birds eating out of the feeder in our front yard now, it's so cool. I love birds. I saw this huge raven on the side of the road while I was driving up to Burlington yesterday. It must've been two feet tall, at least. And then there was a hawk on a fence post, just watching cars pass by, but probably had it's eye on something yummy. I really ( Read more... )

Sakura-Con was dope. Some of the cos-play stuff was interesting, some left me shaking my head. There were a few top secret trailers being screened while the cos-play was being judged, Tony and I bailed on that scene when it turned to an unscripted, untranslated interview with some voice-actress from Fruits Basket which was later re-enacted in ( Read more... )

I think I'm sick. Prolly from wearing sandals in March. Fucking hell. I love those things. Ever so Roman - how else could I hope to express the decadence I see in my culture and look like a badass at the same time?
