I touched my eyeball this morning! Good heavens that freaking hurts. I was surprised as anyone. How do these things happen? Shouldn't we, of all people, be in charge of what our hands are doing? How many times have I rubbed my eye in the 34 years of my existence?! I would imagine that it is something that I would be the best equipped person on the planet to handle. Rubbing my own eye. It's not

The Case For Games: Revisited
Posted on 11:11 by Unknown
I'm a devoted PC gamer, I enjoy them because they stretch the imagination, immerse you in plot, and transport you to another world. Plus they let you repeatedly make bad decisions and blow up crap with stunning graphics and sound!
As far as I'm concerned games are the natural evolution of entrainment media. Consider:
Books rescued people from the humdrum boredom of their life, and the harsh

John Moves Forward
Posted on 09:47 by Unknown
John Josephson had an interesting ability. He could stop traffic any time, anywhere. All John had to do was decide to get going and all forward progress would get gone.
Now as far as John was concerned the roads were always a bear. He had to leave from his house 58 minutes early just to arrive 30 minutes late to work. If he wanted to be on time he would start out with two hours to kill in

20 Things I Learned From Star Trek

Our mission is to seek out new life and new civilizations in order to make them just like us.
The Federation comes in peace. But if you provoke us we'll light you up like a warp core!
The functionality of any technology is inversely proportional to to it's urgency of need.
There is no crime on Earth, there is also no money. It is a very boring place, which is why we're in space, shooting photon

"My life" - The Game

"Good Morning, Commander Shepard"
"At ease Lieutenant. What's was in this mornings briefing from the council?"
"Today we've got to organize the warehouse and check on the cable supply for the upcoming network clean up. Then later someone needs to sift through the logs on the mail server and see why sendmail is failing to send low memory alerts and CPU spikes to the group e-mail account."

iMac? Say It's Not So!
Posted on 06:00 by Unknown
So I just got a new work laptop. My old laptop was purchased in 2004 and routed to me in June of 2005. It has been a faithful companion with a simple and stable Windows XP OS. I have kept it clean of temporary files, viruses and any bloat-ware.
In return it has dutifully connected to any and all network devices I have thrown it's way. Email, routers, Interwebing or whatever I needed. But the

A Sunday Afternoon
Posted on 10:35 by Unknown
To quote a friend: "Do you know what my favorite thing about moving is? Nothing!"
A friend had solicited volunteers in helping them move. Personaly I've always enjoyed the process. What could be better than a giant puzzle game? You get the fun of lifting heavy objects, the stimulation of finding the best course of action in navigating hallways, stairs or other obstacles plus the exercise and

Mind Boggling
Posted on 07:00 by Unknown
So I met him. Yes him;the statistical improbability of the universe. Sure it was hard to believe at first but I suppose sooner or later someone would meet him or at least we would all hear a report on his condition. It just so happens I chatted with him, the one guy left in the United States of America who has not seen Star Wars.
I was flabbergasted. Of course I responded to him in an

Beware The Walrus

I cannot begin to imagine that this sign is legit. Regardless it makes me laugh.
Of course I'm not taking any chances, and have begun to prepare for the invasion...

Holding Back The Tide
Posted on 07:00 by Unknown
Why do we sometimes wait to go pee,
Instead of setting our caged liquids free?
Why do we sit for a couple beats later,
Ignoring our urges to which we should cater?
Why do we squirm in our seats in denial,
Of the river inside that should flow like the Nile?
Why do we walk by a restroom and think,
I can hold back the dam right up to the brink?
Why do we wait till our bladders are bursting,

Stretching
Posted on 09:11 by Unknown
I used to write a 500 word post everyday, at part of this blog. I thought in the beginning that it was super simple. I could always find something to crank out and wax ridiculous about. Afterwards I would go back and tweak it, fix any errors I could find and do my best to be slightly witty or at least abnormal. If that post wasn't the best at least you knew there would be one tomorrow.

Surviving Summer
Posted on 09:42 by Unknown
When I was kid, summer was magical. It was a time when teachers had lost their controlling grip and my parents cared little for my whereabouts or even showed much concern for my bedtime. Summer for me was long days spent by the pool and the familiar smell of my fathers BBQ. I recall birthday parties, long bike rides with friends and a total freedom that was unparalleled for any other time of the
