We did it: We survived seven-and-a-half straight hours of Pauly Shore movies. Don’t ask why we did it. I doubt any of us could really explain it. But we did it.
I’m not sure how Scott and Patrick decided on it, but we watched them in this order: Jury Duty, In the Army Now, Son in [...]

Totally Pauly
Avalonstar
I’ve been following Bryan Veloso for a couple of years now. He’s one of the most talented designers I’ve seen online. It saddens me to know that Avalonstar is offline… I’m not sure what’s going on, but I hope Bryan (and Jen) know that there are people praying for them… Hopefully they can work through [...]
Irony
Wow… now this truly is the very definition of irony:
Look over the descriptions of the following two houses and see if you can tell which belongs to an environmentalist:
HOUSE # 1:
A 20-room mansion (not including 8 bathrooms) heated by natural gas. Add on a pool (and a pool house) and a separate guest house all [...]
Build it and spam will come.
Anytime anything gets popular on the web, spammers exploit it. Case in point, I received a friend request from someone last night who’s sole purpose on Twitter was to show which chores they were working on, and provided a link to a web app they were promoting to help keep track of their chores. Umm, [...]
Redemption
I’ve been really hard on Lost this season. I’ve been a devoted fan since the beginning, but I lost faith in the show when it started to lose direction. Honestly, I had pretty much given up on Lost. Tonight, the show redeemed itself. Here’s a short teaser of what was covered in tonight’s episode.
Lost [...]
AdSense
I hate advertising as much as the next person, but I quietly added Google AdSense to the site earlier this week. Right now, it’s only a test, and I’ve tried to make it as unobtrusive as possible: Ads only appears on individual post pages. If you happen to subscribe to my RSS feed, you probably [...]
Abomination
If I didn’t have to have Microsoft Outlook 2007 installed on my system for testing purposes, I would uninstall it and burn the disks and packaging the installer came on. I’m not kidding. Outlook 2007 is one of the worst “upgrades” I have ever used.
I’ve come close to uninstalling it several times now. I had [...]
Chapter 26: War Buddies – Unknown Soldiers (Part 3 of 6)
A new graphic novel was posted to the official Heroes website today. This week’s story revolves around Hana (sort of, but not really):
The graphic novel comes in two flavors: interactive or printable [PDF]. Choose your poison.
If you’re not familiar with the graphic novel, you should be! (You can read all of the past graphic novels [...]
Joke Chasers
This is too funny for words. Or, at least I find it funny… Joke Chasers is part of a new show called Acceptable TV on VH1 (airs Fridays at 10pm). The first episode aired with five TV pilot episodes. Viewers vote on their top two favorite episodes, and the top two vote-getters move onto the [...]
Unacceptable
I’m still in shock over the news that Kathy Sierra, a fairly well-known blogger, author and speaker, was on the receiving end of some pretty heinous threats online. [See Death threats against bloggers are NOT "protected speech" (why I cancelled my ETech presentations)] The threats were/are serious enough that Kathy has canceled speaking engagements and [...]
