I got out of class early last night, so I decided to see if the Rev and his arctic lover wanted to go see the first show of a band for which I auditioned a few weeks ago. They said sure, so we trotted on down to Deep Ellum. As it turned out, the show [...]

Corey Flintoff Unleashes Sonorous, Pleasantly Modulated String Of Obscenities
WASHINGTON, DC?Upon injuring a toe Sunday, Corey Flintoff, newscaster for NPR’s All Things Considered, unleashed a string of rich, pleasantly modulated obscenities. “God fucking dammit,” Flintoff warmly intoned after dropping a heavy-duty router on his foot while working in his garage. “Stupid fucking cocksucking son [...]
Holy shit. I never thought to look here.
Office Copier Assisted Suicide.
Hardcore NewsRadio fans will understand.
I’m 10 episodes away from having the complete series of NewsRadio.
I watched Smallville for the second time tonight. I picked a cool episode to jump in on. Lots of recognizable symbolism, not to mention the John Williams fanfare being reprised not once but TWICE. Kal-el learned his real name, the name of his planet, and [...]
It took me damn near three hours to get home last night.
Today, all classes are cancelled and I can’t reach anyone at work.
The love I once had for nVidia has been replaced with pure malice. I wish them repeated pokes in the face with really annoying, pointy abjects until they decide to make their drivers [...]
By the way, I’m going to start keeping the Mamecab’s webcam on from time to time. Click on the appropriate link over there to the right under “Vizyools.” The page is boring, and the current image is from last night, but it’s something for now.
The weeks are just blending bleeding together. I’m at work with a huge stack of stuff to do, but all I can think about is going home and sleeping.
Well, and these damn software issues I’m having at home. I still can’t get the GeForce to clone the way I want to. I’d really hate to [...]
DynDNS + TightVNC + BEFW11S4 + Showshifter + (some constant C) = Farris + Sploogy Trousers
Except for one very annoying overlay issue (which I’ll probably just have to deal with until I have a standalone Video PC physically next to the television), I have a 100% functional, bad-ass, remotely-programmable PVR system.
I don’t fully understand how [...]
Ralph and I had a long phone conversation and decided to see other people
February 20th, 2003 in 9to5 and Potpourri. 0 CommentsI’m no longer chained to the White Porcelain Oracle. I’m at work, wishing I were at home tweaking my really awesome, bought-and-paid-for PVR software. Even more reason to want a bigger television. I’m 99% done setting it all up, and after tomorrow I should be able to remotely schedule a recording from anywhere with web [...]
There is no better nurse than a sweet little kitty
February 19th, 2003 in 9to5 and Potpourri. 1 CommentSo I’m home sick today, puking up things I know I didn’t eat. B brought me sprite and medicine (some of which I promptly donated to the Lewisville sewer system) and was nice enough to bring my computer up from the car.
For the first half of today, I was in constant pain. I felt like [...]
