Will Blog For Food
Now why didn't I think of quitting my job to blog fulltime like the guy in this story in Wired? Oh yeah, it's because I make no money doing this...
When I Said Music Was My Drug Of Choice, I Wasn't Kidding
Thanks to Sirius Satellite Radio I have once again started buying music. It's a habit I kicked because of the lack of quality albums (cds, whatever) released in the mid-to-late nineties. But now I'm back, scouring used CD stores and the internet, seeking that "certain" release by a band you probably have never hear of before. My return to John Cusack's character in High Fidelity is underway. This can't be good.
Friday's purchase consisted of
Dick's Sporting Goods that is. On a recent trip to my favorite Target (it's got a Taco Bell / Pizza Hut in it) I noticed that Galyan's is no more, and in it's place is a Dick's. I did actually see the workers erecting the Dick's sign, but had no decent camera available to take a picture of the big Dick's erection.
Ah Fuck, Goddamn Programmers Can Be Such Assholes!!
I can say this because I used to code for a living. Someone has figured out how to thwart Firefox's ability to stop pop-up ads from appearing. Pop-up ads are the most annoying thing on the internet, they seem to propagate like rabbits, and have never been for a product that I would be even remotely interested in learning more about. I hope that there is a special place in Hell for the person(s) who figured this out.
And Sometimes Being A Nerd Can Be Very Frustrating
On one of last week's The Daily Show with Jon Stewart they did a story about Paris Hilton's Blackberry getting hacked. Argh! She has a Sidekick II assclowns! Fuckin' A, she is in the goddamn Sidekick II commercial as well! I know, I need to go into a corner and roll a twenty-sided die until I calm down a bit, but it's all about the details. I expect more from you Daily Show, get with the program.
And now for some ideas stolen from LiveJournal...
