Have I mentioned how awesome the folks at Linux Journal are to work with? Well, they are. Last Friday that created an ad, and put it live on the www.linuxjournal.com website. This is not to be confused with the ad I created, oh no, this is much better. Much. I don’t want to post a screenshot, because the ad is … Read more
This post crosses way over the line of TMI, but if you’re remotely interested in some insight into the boxer and brief debate, and not offended by references to dangley bits, this post might be educational. It might also be a complete farce, it’s hard to tell. This evening, due to my inability to put my dirty clothes in the … Read more
At first glance, insomnia really does seem cool. No, I’m serious. I don’t know about you, but I’m often annoyed that I need to spend a third of my life pointlessly sleeping. I’ve got things to do man. Unfortunately insomnia really isn’t as cool as just “never getting tired.” See, here it is almost midnight and I’m so absurdly tired … Read more
There are some things I do that are almost too absurd to share with the public. Thankfully, this isn’t one of them. Plus, I “shared” with the public more than I ever intended to anyway… This morning, due to insomnia problems, I was getting ready for work after my family had already left for school. As I was going through … Read more
Wow. I have not been able to sleep lately. I think I get like 2 hours a night, and it’s really starting to catch up with me. I feel like death. Apart from doctor prescribed drugs, anyone have any good tips on curing insomnia? I’m all ears…
There have been some questions about my Houdini act, so I’ll set the record straight… 1) I am not the one that locked the keys in the car. I think that’s important to note. So, noted. 🙂 2) Our van is a 2007 Caravan, and doesn’t lend itself to jamming a coat hanger anywhere. Well, not with any actual hopes … Read more
You know those videos I do all the time, teaching folks how to do stuff with Linux? Well, humor me and pretend you do. Anyway, this week Linux Journal is giving stuff away. And not a limited amount of stuff either. Everyone that plays can win. You can play. You can win. Watch this video for details, and if you … Read more
Yes, a Star Trek question. But really, which would you rather have? With a replicator, you could create anything the size of a bread basket or smaller, as long as it wasn’t terribly complicated. With the holodeck, you could live a virtual world as real as life and have it go any way you desire. I realize with the replicator … Read more
This is like a nicotine patch for Coke drinkers, but without the nicotine. So, I guess that means it’s like a pointless sticker that resembles a nicotine patch. At the very least the Coke company could make caffeine free Coke Zero — which would probably taste fairly good. Sadly, I’m not the guy they turn to for suggestions like that.
I really hate memes, so I figured I’d tell you about my dog instead. To be honest, he’s probably more interesting than me anyway. So here ya go: 1. His name is Tux, but originally it was Fizz-Gig. It fit him well. 2. Our cat is bigger than he is. 3. She reminds him of that when he tries to … Read more
