No overarching theme here, move along...
As I think I mentioned, I now work in very close proximity to a Wii. As in I can play it without even getting up from my chair. This is a very bad thing, because I find myself actually playing the damn thing. Bowling and Tennis and Fighter Planes and Prince of Persia and whatever other things we have handy. I find myself playing it because it's ( Read more... ) -

Keyboard Error, Code 39, I/O conflict -- and how to fix it
I have just finished a rather frightening experience which nearly brought me to reformatting my system. Thankfully, I did not have to commit digital hari-kari. I am now going to post the story of what happened, and how I fixed it, in hopes that someday someone else will have the same issue and find my solution useful. :)
The Problem:

Sick
I've apparently contracted a bit of a cold. It's not so bad yet, just a sore throat and a general feeling of tiredness. I want to go out n' do things, as Saturday is pretty much one of the only days of the week I can actually do something, but I wanna get over this cold ASAP, which means I should probably rest.
Blah.
Maybe I'll watch a movie or -

space potato!
chookbobberki got me thinkin' about putting a potato into space. I think it had something to do with a quote some guy said about there being many nations that can't even put a potato into space. Why a potato? I don't know. Why space? I don't know that either. I do know that it should not be nearly as expensive as it is to put random garden veggies outside of ( Read more... ) -
Non-offensive Iambic Pentameter rap/hip-hop
bunnyslope is in need of some examples of non-offensive iambic pentameter in pop music. I don't really listen to any rap/hip-hop type stuff, so uh... anyone got any suggestions? -
Urban Golf and Geeky Costumes
Somehow or other about a week ago I stumbled across several new 'sports' that I think I would probably enjoy.
The first one being Cardboard Tube Fighting. Apparently there is a sizable group of bay area residents who form the SF chapter of the Cardboard Tube Fighting League (CTFL). I was sad to find out about their shenanigans too late to take ( Read more... )
