Barbarians cometh : Reboot.4.0  5.31
Time and time again, barbarians will over-through the unexpecting opressors, seize advanced technologies for themselves, and eventually form a new more advanced empire. Greeks; Romans; Goths; British; Time Warner.

Justin Hall : Dave Winer : Dave Gray : Mark Hurst : Evan Williams : Douglas Rushkoff : I don't just recognize these names, I actually know who these guys are. I recognize some by their face, having seen them speak in person. Hail to the king baby.

The Farce is strong  5.31
If you haven't even watched Pulp Fiction then: (a) You really need to watch it (b) kung fu kenobi's big adventure may confuse you. If you'd rather, just visit New Venue for other movies.

Zilog : Eighty  5.29
For these who are confused by the logo in the top left corner, I present someone else who understands.

innerWidth  5.28
The window size (not screen size) of visitors are logged and aggregated for my own personal amusement. All three of them; on a high traffic day. Another day older and closer to death.

Uber Car  5.28
It's a solid brick with effortless control over the laws of inertia; It is unfairly superior. Regardless of what you tell yourself, you get what you pay for. Ang Lee is Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. Fallon is a huge advertising agency. BMW builds fine automobiles. Chosen is the five forty immortalized on film.

Anonymous song lyrics.

Peter Parker  5.26
If your name is Sony, then you probably spend large amounts of money on a promotional website for your latest movie. (Don't skip the intro; That's the good bit.)

xsl:with-param  5.26
Search box. Archive box. Links page grouped by group/@title and sorted by item/@title. Backend tracking of link click-throughs. xsl:include for uppercase translation. So what?

Anonymous song lyrics.

Spiritual Machines  5.20
I refuse to buy XLNX stock. They bought the Rex from Franklin and then started selling an inferior version. They recently issued a press release about a new Flash intro on their website. Despite all this brain-dead behavior, Xilinx is still a huge player when it comes to ASIC/FPGA chips; CPUs with re-programmable instruction sets.

Adrian Thompson builds Machines that learn.

w3/1999/XSL/Transform  5.19
Ok fine, there were a few minor issues ... No, you can't un-escape CDATA ... xsl:sort won't work outside a for-each ... MSXML is not very friendly ... Nineteen days past the original due date ...

None-the-less, I finally made the time to implement ye magical XSLT template system in order to split data into months/archives.
There is no substitute for superior firepower.

hitchhike  5.17
May 25th is Towel Day in remembrance of Douglas Adams. I've got his books, grew up with the Infocom game, watched the bad television episodes, and am seriously concerned about suddenly dropping dead without warning.

NS6  5.17
Netscape 6 is stupid with images in table cells that are shorter than the current text line-height. I have been forced to spawn a lovely new CSS style/class workaround, appropriately labeled "ns6sucks".

Clutter is bad  5.16
The Best Designs just keeps getting better and better, while I stand and watch from my air-free container. New license plates. 9300K cool white. Six more perfect pieces of chocolate.

Here's a little tip for you. When you notice you monitor doing anything strange, it's time to start window shopping for a new monitor. I've got three little words for you: buy dot com.

Anime Music Videos  5.7
Big kids at home with DVD rippers and MPEG encoders and lots of free time on their hands tend to produce some very interesting results. Apparently, there's a huge following. See? I'm a fun person.

in dark  5.6
Couldn't sleep. Drove over to see you. Lights still on, but no one was home. Sat on the couch; sat on the floor; stood staring inside the refrigerator. Your ex-boyfriend; the one who carries the gun everywhere. This wasn't apparent until he asked me to leave. Nothing in this room is worth being shot over. Nothing worth being dead over. Where's my book. I'm just wanna get my book out of the kitchen. Pop; Carpet; Crap. No problem. Modern technology; Large metropolitan area. Just call nine one one and talk them into sending help. I know he'll get in trouble, but I'm bleeding down here. That's a lot of blood. What do you mean he can't get in trouble? I don't care, I need some major medical assistance people. Pop. Now he doesn't need a doctor.

I swim through a world of false desire. Watching; Waiting. Eliminate that which is not truth. Scientific process of elimination. Time marches on. Surely. I have clothing sitting in my closet that's never been worn. just sitting. Ah, lovely, stylish ... and then nothing. Repeat. It blinks and has twice as much memory. It's made of solid wood. You can't beat real wood. Vitamin fortified. Shiny yet won't attract fingerprints. Faster. Firmer. It smells like fruit. Always something else to be cast aside. Surely.

A train went past my window. Horn; Horn; Rumble-Rumble; Whoosh. I'm not sure how they drove a train down Live Oak; So pretty. I've often been accused Of being unjustly hollow. They need to look farther. It's not for lack of opportunity, or ability, or readiness. It's for lack of desire as a result of introspection. A desire for what is real. The starting gun drowned out by the ringing in my ears; No direction to run. Making motions. Shaving. Cereal. Charged by the bank for something I didn't do. Staring at the other drivers; Where is he going? What is he doing? Why?

Breathe. More rain.

Dot pitch  5.5
My .25mm Ultra Fine suddenly has a burnt out spot/dot in the middle of the screen. I'm very upset over this. Doesn't this sort of thing only happened to LCD monitors? Wacking the side of the case over and over proved pointless.

You wish you were compliant.

Heartless peppers  5.5
Lonely Meals : one single serving. Inspired by Sybil, but dedicated to Stephanie; she knows why.

in rain  5.5
So I sat out on the balcony patio. It rained. The wind blew. The neighbors across the street came home, and tried to cover their heads to keep their hair dry. They stood on the front steps; smoking. Two small children ran in and out of the doorway, through the smoke; wielding toys. I watched their large screen TV on the second floor, which was showing a talk show. A hairless frog's head in a blue shirt was talking. Occasionally the picture would switch to show a different figure; standing; wearing a grey suit. I'm famous. I did this last week. He said this. She said that. I'm in this new project. Buy a copy. Famous model died in a car. Ass clown in Washington said something and did nothing. Four thousand pounds accelerating from standstill to sixty in 7 seconds is simply not fast enough. Finance rates are lower this week; This car looks pretty.

Tide comes in : Tide goes out.  5.3
So lately, I'm very tired. Strangely, I don't have anything setup to merge/split/sort the XML data. Did I mention that I'm tired?

Stef ... Power Puff Girls meet Hot Topic

Jessica ... I hope she doesn't find out and get upset that I comb through her site and blatantly steal the truth. Ah, storyboards.

Olivia ... Since someone doesn't know who Nick Drake is or what he sounds like, here's the VW comerical that made him re-famous.

Myself ... Occasionally I worry that my morbid humor somehow has a negative effect on my life. Then I wonder exactly how long the day would be with no humor at all.
