So, should I be annoyed or proud that my son has beaten Super Mario Galaxy 2 before me? I watch him fly through the end levels with the ease of a practiced expert. Gliding over obstacles, jumping and careening through danger with no more care or consideration than a buzzing bee floating lazily through a field […]
On my bucket list: I need to jam with Steve Martin. Him on banjo, me on guitar, playing a sweet double-timed version of “I’ll Fly Away”. Preferably sometime before he dies, of course. (Source: manofinterest.tumblr.com)
So, this is pretty awesome. Somebody went and created a Frogger game using real-time data from 5th Avenue in New York City. A webcam tracks the movements of the cars, and a program maps those movements into virtual cars in the game. That. Is. CRAZY. And absolutely fantastic. I would love to play something like […]
Tomorrow is Xenoblade Chronicles day!
Which for most people will result in something resembling the following: Pick up Xenoblade Chronicles Go home and play Xenoblade Chronicles But, unfortunately, for ME at least, the process will actually look something more like this: Pick up Xenoblade Chronicles Work the rest of the day (periodically flipping through the art book, of course) Go […]
Help me name my new car! So, earlier this week, I went and bought me a car. It’s a shiny red 2010 Chevy Aveo, and it’s a pretty little thing. Exactly what I was looking for: reliable, fuel-efficient, small, and affordable. The perfect little commuter car for the 400+ minutes I spend on the highway […]

Two more of my domains going away
Just shut off auto-renew on two more domains of mine that are coming up for renewal within the next couple of months: nerdflood.com and nerdshelf.com. The slash-and-burn clearing of my internet house continues. And the dude abides.
eschergirls: lesstitsnass: You punch like a girl, Masochist. Seriously, that kind of posing on a punch is pretty much only drawn on girls. You’ll likely never see a punch done this way on a man. No, a man puts his back into a punch. There’s follow-through. This girl here, she has a weak punch because […]
An addendum: RE: itsdangeroustogoalone.com
In my haste to inform people that yes, I no longer own itsdangeroustogoalone.com, and yes, I’m aware it’s now controlled by a spammer WHY DOES THAT SURPRISE YOU, I completely forgot that I still control the Feedburner feed for the URL, which is apparently still subscribed to by roughly 40 people. So, I redirected the […]
