In a ridiculous release today at CNN.com, Navistar talks about the new CXT truck available to the l33t and rich. The CXT is a staggering 9′ tall and a few inches longer than Ford’s F-350. At 7 tons, it’s also averaging a meager 6 to 10 mpg. While diesel is cheaper, I’m betting you won’t… Continue reading Navistar CXT Eats Hummer for Breakfast

Drumming in Gainesville (Cont.)
I’m just getting home from our session on the square this evening. Balthazar (who’s 1.5 years old as of this writing), insisted on staying up the entire time. Last time he fell out after a couple of hours. This time he remained pretty lively – though walking like a drunk – and he played drums… Continue reading Drumming in Gainesville (Cont.)

Drumming in Gainesville (Again)
I’m going to be on the square in Gainesville if you want to drop by and give it a listen. We did this a few weeks back and had a great success. There’s food and coffee nearbye (including spirits at The Brickhouse), so you won’t be out of touch with your more basic needs. My… Continue reading Drumming in Gainesville (Again)
Algal Blooms for your Spring Decorating Tips
From a product I viewed (MoCoLoco: Algue) recently, home decor takes an organic leap forward. The product is one of Ronan & Erwan Bouroullec’s designs. The Bouroullec’s are brothers in the modern art industry. Some of their material is on display at the New York Museum of Modern Art, and their resumes continue to impress.… Continue reading Algal Blooms for your Spring Decorating Tips
Bathroom Etiquette
This should probably be a meme if it isn’t already (note to self…). I have a list of things I would like to post in regards to bathroom etiquette. Please follow these simple guidelines when in my presence. *Do NOT* talk to me whilst I piddle or poo. Talking to me during a piddle is… Continue reading Bathroom Etiquette
Missile balloons!
Engadget – www.engadget.com This distinctly reminds me of an old bumper sticker of mine. It read, “Legalize Vehicular Weaponry.” I’m pretty much a firm believer in this as; a) I drive very well with more courtesy than many, and b) I play games that give me experience in this sort of thing – if you… Continue reading Missile balloons!
Commuter Blues (Cont.)
So I didn’t actually get up in time to be at work at 6:00am the other day. I missed my ride and had to drive myself through annoying traffic. However, I was able to comprehend the alarm clock this morning and proceeded to get up and begin my morning duties. The drive in took us… Continue reading Commuter Blues (Cont.)
Commuter Blues
For those of you who commute, this is an all too familiar problem to you. It took me slightly more than two hours to get to work this morning. This is ridiculous, perhaps not to some, but to me. It’s only thirty-seven miles from my doorstep to my chair, and it takes between one and… Continue reading Commuter Blues
Dragon*Con – Sunday
We finally returned home this morning around 4:00am. I don’t remember the last time I was out that late – probably when I was in school. We had a killer time. The masquerade was, as always, better than last year’s. The costumers continue to better themselves and put together amazing works. We’re wondering what happens… Continue reading Dragon*Con – Sunday
