Got my disk in the mail, and thought I’d stop home at lunch to try it out. Here are my thoughts, shot out into quick bullets: The interface is the best Netflix interface I’ve used yet. It’s easy to navigate your queue, similar titles, recent additions to the streaming library, etc. Activating your Wii is painless, and done online. (Like … Read more
I’m at a conference this weekend! This time, it’s not a Linux conference. I’m at a church leadership conference, and boy has it been interesting. The most interesting part, sadly, hasn’t been the content — but rather my inability to handle the huge mobs of people. If you’ve known me for a while, you know that after my car accident … Read more
Because 3 day weekends are amazing. And no one does anything really productive on Friday anyway. So c’mon world, why not adopt a 4 day work week? Also, I think the extra day should be Friday. Face it, the first day back from the weekend (regardless of duration) will stink. Monday already has that stink about it, so let’s leave … Read more
Ok, maybe a couple questions about ’em… 1) Do you have “dress” t-shirts? By that I mean t-shirts you treat as more formal attire than you do the mountains of t-shirts we have for sleeping, painting, dog washing, etc. Personally I do.

There are many reasons to hack your Wii. There are many reasons not to as well. Let’s talk … Read more
I figure, if I make them publicly, I’ll have slightly more motivation to keep them. In the end, it won’t likely matter, because let’s face it — you aren’t the boss of me. (Well, not true, a few of you might actually be the boss of me. Your powers are limited to the ability of adding a new resolution to … Read more
Based on photographic evidence, The Grinch had acute liver failure. Poor guy, with his sociopathic tendencies, he’ll never get on the transplant list.
Yesterday on Twitter, I commented that I would be asking everyone for a HUGE favor today. Well, it’s today. 🙂 Over at Natuba (the folks that put me in their ad), they are having a “funniest photo” contest in which the winner will win a Nintendo Wii. I have mentioned it before, but today is the last day for entries … Read more
I have a deadline. Mind you, this isn’t just a regular deadline I’ve pushed off until the last minute (rest assured, I have one of those for Monday. Seriously.) This is a monumental project that has been delayed due to a myriad of reasons. Some reasons good ones, some reasons not. But it’s a deadline. So I’ve decided this weekend … Read more
It’s my blog, and I can say whatever I want. So there. Also, I’ll have you know this is the only hit when searching for Bliggle Darnock Marchiqua Norlanthou via Google. I have exclusivity, baby! Yours Truly, Quigniggly McPooterspank UPDATE: Darn you rotten kids!
