…yet so far away. Yes… the site is coming along quite nicely, I’ve converted everything that isn’t going to be in a database on the new site. What’s left? The Encyclopeteia, the quotes, the menu, administration, statistics, and “what’s new”. Quotes should be pretty easy, the encyclopeteia will be the most difficult of them. Menu and [...]
I had the strangest dream last night… most of it is pretty foggy, but here’s what’s not: Candice came back over to the house randomly with her roomie for next year, except that I know the girl in the dream wasn’t REALLY her roomie next year. I then somehow wound up in a pick-up basketball game, [...]
All sorts of stuff floating around the ‘net today, while I wait for [Ry] to return from picking [Jim] up from work, I thought I’d share a few shorts with you: Manny has imparted me with this bit of wisdom. kd has a beautiful new look, MoveableType 2.0 looks pretty nice. A beautiful economic discussion about the value [...]
Every friday I’m going to answer the five questions posted by Heather at The Friday Five and post the answers here. Feel free to answer for yourself in my comments box or on your own site… 1. What is your favorite time of year? A midwestern Fall. Summer is second, followed by winter and spring. 2. What is [...]
Danger, Will Robinson! Morons at twelve-o’clock! (link courtesy of Jenn at Always the Freak, courtesy of Bad in a Good Way). The above article, entitled “College Girls: Unpaid Whores” (yes, now go back and click the link…) is written by a Cornell University Ph.D. candidate, and self-obsessed zealot, Joseph Sabia. It would take the better part [...]
It’s kinda sad, really. My previous post talked about the hoop-la (pardon the pun) caused by a certain project put together by a certain Hoopty. I’ve been reading (on a fairly regular basis) participants in the electronic shouting match. I’m not going to post names or links to individuals to fuel the fire, but it’s [...]
Lots and lots of randomness going through my head today, try to keep up. A bit ago, after being casual online acquaintances, one Katie Sherman and I had a disagreement which was caused by a misunderstanding, followed by an inability for her to stick to one topic at a time. It seems that she [...]
Have you ever wondered if a group of Americans exists that believes in their own petty cause so blindly that they’d be willing to sacrifice the lives of thousands of innocent Americans to protect it? Of course there is. This group is the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU). While I appreciate the ACLU’s contributions to [...]

Eight games played today, six correct picks. The two that I got wrong were the two I figured I would. Maybe I should second guess my picks round by round BEFORE I turn them in. At any rate, my pick percentage fell only slightly to 77.5% (31/40) and my two miss-picks weren’t bad ones to [...]
Petey faired pretty well in the Tourney today. 16 games played, 14 correct picks. Nice. That brings my first round percentage to 78.1% (25/32) not too shabby for a guy who doesn’t watch much college basketball unless Bama is on TV. For those of you keeping up with the tournament through these posts, read on… [...]
