The party last night at Dan’s was fun. He had a good measure of food, which is always good for me. I spent much of the time grazing, though I was able to communicate rudimentarily between bites. Most of the people there were from Dan’s group of employees, though Ed, I, and Ron were not.… Continue reading Chicken Launcher

Vent et Glace sur Lac Lèman du Genéve
Holy cow! I thought *we* had problems with ice in Georgia. I’m not particularly good with French, but my guess is that the pictures are from Lake Lèman in Geneva. Something about heavy winds up to 60mph…and considerably cold. Link: Ice Pictures
I Eat Yellow Foods
It turns out that I really enjoy eating in mom & pop establishments. I sort of always knew that, but didn’t think about it much. They’re often times more expensive than bigger chains, but for what they lack in economy, they gain in service and dining pleasure. You also get a warm, fuzzy knowing that… Continue reading I Eat Yellow Foods
Don’t Panic!
Douglas Adams’ Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy is coming to theater’s in live-action glory soon! You may have seen the original movie or read the book (wasn’t there a cartoon also?), but a new movie just seems apt after the abysmal 1982 rendition. Since Adams’ untimely death in 2001, proper reverance has yet to be… Continue reading Don’t Panic!
Huygen’s Update
Despite recent exposure to a “communications glitch,” I am continually impressed by what we’re seeing from this latest celestial achievment. Getting images, let alone audio, from Titan is just awesome! Generically speaking, it’s just some rocks on dirt in a orangish environment. Could be mistaken for Mars under poor lighting conditions. However, seeing images from… Continue reading Huygen’s Update
Mr. Bean
I just received some coffee from India (southern India) from a friend, Shan N. It’s certainly bold! They’re apparently big into chicory over there. I’m enjoying the coffee, but it’s a bit much for my several-mugs-a-day habit.
Gingerbread Gangsta’s
On Christmas Adam, my mom made gingerbread men cookies for our combined families to enjoy. She didn’t realize immediately, but a sudden recognition came to her. She had made gansta’ gingerbread men.
2005 and All’s Well
In spite of the latest horrid events and natural disasters, the new year is here and appears to be sticking around for the moment. The sky over my head is blue and mostly cloudless; certainly a sign of serenity here. We celebrated with Gainesville’s First Night event on the downtown square. The weather has been… Continue reading 2005 and All’s Well
Tea Bag Phenomenom
Since Halo 2’s substantial release into the wild, new phrases have entered the every-day. Among them is “tea-bagging.” Not something I’d recommend using in mixed company, but I’m guessing it’ll be on the sitcom’s soon. Wikipedia says: The term tea bag is also slang for a homosexual sex act that involves the scrotum (the tea… Continue reading Tea Bag Phenomenom
Flickr Groups
I hadn’t paid much attention to Flickr.com to be honest, though I do use it when I think about it. It’s actually an awesome little service with great functionality. Part of me is insanely jealous at the ingenuity behind it. I poked around a bit this evening and discovered the “Groups” features. It’s a lot… Continue reading Flickr Groups
