I have recovered my password!

I must say goodbye to Livejournal. It's been a good run, and a big thanks to Heather for getting me into this wonderful thing awile ago, before it had, as they say on the street--"blown up". Alas, Livejournal is the publishing tool of 2001, the publishing tool of college sophomores on small campuses, not 22 year super seniors living at home ( Read more... )

If you watched golf this weekend, maybe you noticed that Tiger Woods has all the shots. That is, he can adjust his swing to each and every shot, in order to produce the unique shot needed for that particular instance. Perhaps even more strikingly, Tiger won the Ford Championship's while missing over 1/2 of all fairways, forcing himself to hit out ( Read more... )

Hating Loving Phil MickelsonI used to really hate Phil Mickelson.

The Mick Shows Some Class--Even If He Can't Golf For Shit

Why Are all My Mammals Dying? Monolith Time Damnit!It's an information age we live in, long ago predicted by SimEarth but only recently realized thanks to the internerd and the NEW PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN AT&T and SBC. Sorry to shout sarcastically, but AT&T and SBC have been bombarding us all with their post-merger ads, and I've been conditioned to ( Read more... )

Chappelle is Back!One of my favorite comedians and a good man to boot makes his return this week with "Block Party", featuring Dave's standup interspresed with some of his favorite music groups. Can't say I agree with some of the musical acts, but the film is getting good reviews. Dave's skits are funny to all races and ethnicities, and offensive ( Read more... )

When The Media Paraphrases, Other Horrors

I had to share this inane and insane paraphrase from an article on the dangers of nuclear waste:

"Some scientists and at least one congressman want a conclusive investigation of the health risks. They say that while tritium is like water, if ingested some of it may remain in the body where it can damage ( Read more... )
