‘Just Bring ’em In From Space’ An Interview With the Creators of Aqua Teen Hunger Force By James Norton As genres go, ‘anthropomorphic food’ has a fairly lousy track record. What’s meant to be cute and whimsical typically turns out to be a mix of square and spooky. There’s nothing particularly fun about McDonald’s existentially… Continue reading Flak Magazine: Aqua Teen Hunger Force: The Interview, 09-22-03

Gavin DeGraw
As recommended by Zach Braff, Gavin DeGraw gets a second from me. I’ve enjoyed going to his website allowing the playlist to continuously loop through a very nice selection of tracks. Props to the marketing genius for that. To summarize DeGraw, mix Howie Day and Jason Mraz. Any idea why it’s suddenly cooler to use… Continue reading Gavin DeGraw
Fever
Fever is a funny thing. Your body induces fever to fight off a variety of infections or illnesses. Apparently, a region in your brain, the hypothalamus, handles the regulation of your body temperature, but particular kinds of illness will set your hypothalamus at a higher level. This is from molecules in your blood called pyrogens.… Continue reading Fever
MSI 3.0 (Update)
I finished the class Microsoft presented on MSI 3.0. It’s interesting stuff, but if you’re used to such things as RPM, it’s just catching up.

Props to the Barefoot
Darren “Barefoot” has kept me entertained for some time with his writings. His site was my original inspiration to get in blogging, so give it a look.
The Honda Experience (Update)
Here’s the latest news in the Honda Experience. It turns out there was some unscrupulous actions occurring after all. My vehicle purchase price was changed without notification. Of course, I was a fool for signing the contract without calculating the simple interest loan values myself and backwards calculating tax, tag, title, doc fee, and sales… Continue reading The Honda Experience (Update)

The Honda Experience
The Honda Element has an unusual aesthetic value about it. I believe the general favor for this vehicle is split between those who love it and those who hate it. Oddly still, that split is probably 50/50. My wife and I coincidentally agree on our view and like the overall design. We’re both mostly utilitarian… Continue reading The Honda Experience
