It is 3:46am, on a… Wednesday… I guess. And for yet another fucking night there are huge fucking noisy machines tearing the road up 10 feet away from my bedroom window.
FUCK YOU, NOISY MACHINES.
THREE FUCKING FORTY-SIX FUCKING A FUCKING M???
FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU, NOISY MACHINES.
The new road looks nice, though.
My good friend Rydell is at Nerdapalooza right now, and somehow managed to con MC Frontalot into calling me to wish me a Happy Mother’s Day. It is July 5th. To my credit, I answered the phone by screaming “Happy Mother’s Day” into it first.
Ok, so I have only just this evening finally gotten around to watching Batman Begins. I liked it.
I am sure other people have already written a ton of fluff about the movie, so I won’t bother. It is a good film, though. Probably the best superhero and/or comic book movie I’ve seen in a long [...]
I’ve been following the Hans Reiser trial and conviction for the murder of his wife, via Wired.com’s Threat Level column.
I was a little bit shocked to read (very early this morning, thanks in part to the huge iced coffee I drank earlier combined with tummy trouble caused by a plate of tasty-but-damaging General Tso’s Chicken) [...]
I’m typing this while riding on my recumbent exercise bike. I’ve modified an old art table so that the main chassis and pedals of the bike fit underneath, and added slats across the top of the table to hold my laptop and external keyboard and mouse steady.
It was inspired by the treadputer featured on [...]
From Wired.com’s Threat Level:
The U.S. Senate overwhelmingly voted Wednesday to grant retroactive amnesty to the telecoms that aided the President Bush’s five-year secret, warrantless wiretapping of Americans, and to expand the government’s authority to sift through U.S. communications, handing a key victory to the Bush administration.
The Democrats’ presumptive presidential nominee Barack Obama (D-Illinois) voted for [...]
Here is the link from Comics Reporter.
I like DMG’s work, even though I have to be honest and say that I’d never heard of him before I read this interview. However, after digging through his blog E-merl.com, he does some great stuff. I’m especially enjoying Necessary Monsters right now.
The weird thing is, thinking [...]
Once again, I’m busy trying to get this site to display properly on different browsers, and there’s some fiddling problem with the sidebar CSS that is giving me a headache. Argh.
I’ve finally upgraded to Firefox 3. I was pleasantly surprised to find that my menu customizations (mostly) transferred from version 2 to version 3 without any problems. It is mildly irritating that Tab Mix Plus doesn’t yet work with FF3, but 70% of my plugins work just fine.
Overall, I hadn’t noticed any big improvement over [...]
I am updating the site with the latest version of Comicpress and redesigning it to make better use of the new templates.
Production-wise, I am working on the script some more, and laying out the pages. The first pages might be published before Hell freezes over, or not.
I’ve also just picked up a copy of Scott [...]
