Yes, I know I haven't paid much attention to LJ over the past few months.  The basic reason I'm posting now is that the link I want to post is way too long for Twitter, and Twitter won't shrink it.  Oh Well, the following is a wonderful example of how people are willing to be sheep in spite of themselves.

What is it with the past few years.  It seems like if it rains somewhere two days in a row, there's a flood.  However, if it doesn't rain for a week, there's a drought.

Folks, have we made our environment THIS sensitive to rainfall levels?

Dang it!

The Canadiens won.  That means that Boston will be playing Philadelphia in the next round.  It's probably the best matchup that a Bruin's fan could hope for this playoff year.  However, I don't like seeing the Habs win or Ovechkin get knocked out.

Can insanity in the name of religion please stop!

A fun weekend so far.

Friday night, I got beat up at Silent Death, but not before slamming Target with trip-4s with a Mjolnir and getting the golden beebee (12 on a crit hit) on Rob's Binary for some revenge. That game ended in a rough draw. Target had a massive gunboat while Rob had 4 medium fighters. We called it a stalemate with much haggling ( Read more... )

My car is now freeway-ready again. I took it in to have the hub bearings replaced. Car sounds and handles far better now. The engine noise from the 3.8L V6 is still taking some getting used to ( Read more... )
