It's been a couple weeks. Let me tell you about them.

First off, let's start with the good. Nacho Libre was good. It was ridiculously, perhaps idiotically silly, and yet it had a very sweet core and was very funny. Pang loved it. I did too. I found it far superior to Napoleon Dynamite, which has been co-opted by braindead high schoolers and is so ( Read more... )

I picked up Brain Age, largely due to stevencwatts' recommendation and the fact it was 20 dollars. I'm finding it very engaging, and it actually does what it sets out to do, which is even more amazing. I'm not sure if I'll get any smarter from it, but I am getting waaaaay better at math. And Sudoku, much to my surprise, is a lot of fun.

Saw two movies ( ( Read more... )

Frank (or anyone else who saw it), what did you think of ECW last night?

It's kind of scary, but I think I might actually be in agreeance with Jack Thompson on this.

Couldn't go too much longer without chiming in, so here's my spoiler-free review of...

X-Men 3: The Last Stand - Right to the point, this is not as good as the first two movies. However, Bryan Singer did something amazing with the first two movies. He took a group of characters who until then I had only been moderately amused by, and made them ( Read more... )

Every so often, I wonder if I'm drifting into that dark territory of console fanboyism, where logic takes a holiday and all laws are meaningless, except for those that make my personal favorite piece of consumer electronics superior. I feel as though I shouldn't. But every so often, I am reminded of why I feel this way on occasion ( Read more... )

You can start with this one, here. Frank, Tyler, and myself made it. Yep. It took three people to do that.

Respect.

Can't concentrate on studying at the moment. Need to do something else.

New icon. The original art is by Ben Jones, who worked on the Teen Titans cartoon as well as Harvey Birdman. The colors and text are my own. So, thanks to him.

Backlash was pretty ho-hum, but it was fun to hang out with Frank, Swafford, and the Beckmans, even if most of the ( Read more... )

I've been listening to NPR for the last two hours, and they've been hyping up this story about some college losing a bunch of bandwidth because the students were on Myspace too much, and wound up having to ban the website. Add this in to all the criticism abject hysteria over child predators and perversion on the website, and it's like this thing ( Read more... )

By and large, I'm a pretty nice guy. I do nice things for people, don't break the law (that you know about), don't even drink or smoke or do drugs or anything like that ( Read more... )
