So, Barry Bonds was indicted today. And if you thought that was a metric fuckton of links, I only gave you five of the five thousand out there. This was the story of the day on every major sports outlet, and I think the ten o’clock news led off with it tonight. My reaction can …

Voices of Uncertainty
This was distributed by an anonymous writer who’s afraid of being named because he/she might be blackballed within the industry. The reasoning behind the strike is valid, especially when the studios say that the Internet has an uncertain future. Yeah, like it’s just a fad, right? It’s a pretty good point, though. Watch and enjoy: …

Another Plea
Last week (and the week before that) I mentioned that I was trying to raise money for The Office of Letters and Light. The Office is the wonderful group that runs National Novel Writing Month, which I have participated (and won) the last three years. In the time I have written under NaNoWriMo, The Office …

Be Careful What You Wish For…
Yes, so it was a pretty busy day. As soon as I got in and caught up on all the email, my boss pulled me aside and asked me to work on a project with him, involving a customer buildout that was a little above and beyond the normal network architecture they were used to. …

Pre-Monday Blues
As I was saying in yesterday’s post, being sick really sucks. I had like two days of being sick that I had to weather through all the aching and pain of coughing your lungs out as the phlegm tries to escape. But, anyway… enough grossness. Some good news came out of the long weekend. I …

Toshiba Update
Yesterday, I received a phone call from Toshiba Customer Relations regarding my laptop’s demise. For those of you that don’t know the story so far, feel free to go back and read by clicking on the link. Go ahead. I’ll wait. It did not take two business days like she promised me. It took two …

Flickr
I finally broke down and created myself a Flickr account, which is something I thought I would never ever do. But given the fact that I have a crazy amount of pictures on my hard drive and the fear of losing all of them through a hard drive failure or some other circumstance has me …

New Layout
Although I did like the all black look with the three-column black letterhead theme, Mike Lucoco’s Wucoco 3-column theme is one of the best out there. And if you know a little bit of PHP, updating it to take advantage of WP 2.3+ takes only a few minutes to do. Though getting the post avatars …

My Darts Arrived Today
So, my first dart set arrived today. After shattering tips left and right, I finally have my own property to shatter. I took a picture of the set I purchased. The set was just the grips, barrels, and shafts, but I added the skull and cross flights and rubber o-rings to keep the grip in …
