…then earlier today I completed my last CS project EVER. The compiler, as far as we can tell, will be getting somewhere between 100% and 110%… which means I only need to get a 50% on the final to pass. Of course, I could conceivably do well enough on my final to get an A in [...]

So over the past few days I’ve been playing with he Java AIM Libraries and, specifically, letting a “bot” hang out online and chat with anyone who might happen to IM it. For a while I had two bots running, but that’s not so important. All of the conversations were logged, and I’m going to [...]

So… remember Badger, Badger? Well… what do you think would happen if you crossed the Badgers with Lord of the Rings? I’ll tell you what would happen… THIS. [Stolen from an AIM profile.]

Wanna hear a sad story? I thought so. A 15 year old dog was hit by a car in Pennsylvania back in January, it died. That’s not the sad part, though. You see, the car that hit the dog reported it. A police officer showed up at the scene. It was 4 degrees above zero [...]

No, no… I’m not going to bitch about how those of us with unnaturally high metabolisms can’t get dates. I actually just found an interesting article about a study done by some researchers in the UC system. Apparently when women are looking for flings, they tend to go for more muscular types, but prefer us [...]

Last night, while I was fast asleep, my good friend Matt Schuh gave me a call from the O’Keefe-Zelman/Johnson victory party. Unfortunately, however, because I was asleep Matt had to talk to my voicemail. This did not deter him and Julie &#091Johnson&#093 from speaking at length (two minutes and thirty-two seconds, to be precise) about [...]

The Presidential Race is in full swing, and so is the fundraising. I ran across a site today called Fundrace.org, which has a huge database of personal contributors to presidential candidates. It’s neat. They also have a nifty map… observe!Red is Republican… Blue is Democrat. As you can see, the map is… well… RED. Another really [...]

Not THREE posts ago, I mentioned that the UA Faculty Senate’s apology was one step away from reparations. My worry, of course, was that people will see this as an opportunity to push their idiotic views that we ought to be paying reparations to everyone with a dark skin tone. The very next day the [...]
