Okay, I believe in voting, but dooooooood!!! I’m voting again — this time in the California state primary election, as in the primaries for US Representatives, the State Senators, etcetc, state stuff. Why couldn’t they have bundled these votes in with the national primary election is beyond me, seems like a waste of [...]

Holiday
We spent all weekend barbecuing and watching Battlestar Galactica. Ah, the good life. BSG is our new obsession — I know, everyone else already knows how awesome it was, but we just figured it out recently. How was your holiday weekend? :)
Psychic?
We picked up the Wii Fit on Wednesday, at the local Gamestop (where they’re really knowledgeable and friendly). All I can say about it is that I’m sore, so it must be doing something. Or I dunno, not enough stretching of my (nonexistent) muscles, or something? :p But the freakiest thing was [...]
I’m Melting Like the Wicked Witch of the West, Only With Less Water Involved.

I think the most egregious that I can think of right now is probably Transformers, which was a series of car ads — GM specifically, I think — I dunno, I’m no expert. But anyways, Iron Man, it [...]
Not Above Rubbing It In
When I got home on Friday, I had a fever. I thought I was catching that terrible flu (or whatever) that has felled a good number of my co-workers. But I took an Advil last night, drank some water, and stayed in bed (well ok that part wasn’t exactly non-routine), and today I’m [...]
How My Mind Works. Or Not.
Dude, I read this headline today, “CIA Chief Sees Unrest Rising” on the front page of the Washington Post. It was shortened for the front page, and I hadn’t read the little precis underneath the headline.
I thought it was going to be about the effect of the current economy on graduates of the Culinary [...]
