shawnp0wers As a rule, I never post about politics. The current race, however, really begs to be talked about. I have lots of friends that are much more intelligent than I am, so click on their links over there on the right. Many of them have deep insightful things to say about the election, and they vary in their actual political … Read more
After my site was crumpled from momentary Digg frontpage action, I’ve been more and more frustrated with GoDaddy. I’m considering a couple things: 1) Switching to Blogger. It’s free, it supports domain names, and if Digg brings down Google, we’re all in trouble. The downside is I’ll miss all my widgets, BUT Blogger seems to support almost as many widgets … Read more
It appears that I have surpassed the Pheasant Hunting Guide, the lady Chiropractor, and the USC dude to attain the first place spot on Google when searching for shawn powers (Don’t even need the quotes!

It’s a story people love to talk about with … Read more
I’m spending a LOT of time in the server room lately. I thought you might want to take a peek. 🙂 Download File Here
Quick a little history: I was submitted to the “Hot Blogger Calendar” thingy. I find that funny. I find it funnier that I’m actually getting votes. My boss over at Linux Journal sends me this “Press Release” for the Brain of Shawn readers… Ain’t the Internet a funny place? (I wasn’t going to mention the hot blogger thing, as it … Read more
I talk about my diet plan, “The Pushup Diet”. As absurd as it seems, I think it will work pretty well. Feel free to send friends here, so if they think it’s a stupid idea, they blame me, not you. 😀
Thanks to Crystal, I recently learned about Paperback Swap. If you can part with your precious books (I struggle with this), you should go sign up. Tell ’em I sent you (shawn@brainofshawn.com), and I think they send me a free pony or something. Oh, and here I talk about it:
