no nuke

My new home has a fairly small kitchen. It’s got an ok amount of counter space, but if I add a microwave, I lose about a third of the usable space. I’ve looked for a cart to place said microwave on, but none of them appeal to me functionally or aesthtically. I also have a […]

deadsquid’s reaction to the mj trial

well, everyone else is doing it, why not us? Here’s our uncensored, highly-biased, and completely worthless commentary on the Jacko verdict: [15:17] <rw> right now i am overhearing the corporate controller and the legal secretary talking about how they are waiting for the verdict, watching the cnn feltboard [15:23] <coop> i marked jacko as having […]

Today is my little sister’s birthday, and it’s the first of hers as a mom. While she was in town we got a little time to speak, and she lamented about how we were getting older. I can’t quote her, but it involved fatigue, wrinkles, inability to drink, and a bunch of other things. As […]

I’m travelling again, and am currently in San Francisco. One of the things I regret about past jobs involving […]

what’s the time? it’s beer o’clock!

The folks on the channel pointed me to a great Firefox plugin this morning. It’s the “Beer O’Clock” plugin, and it tells you how much longer you have to go before you can enjoy quaffing some cold suds. One of the nice bits about the plugin is that you can define your own time units, […]
