Thursday : 27 July 2006
Today was a rather quiet day at the office.  In fact, the most… amusing or interesting thing that happened was at the gym.  Eric and I had finished our warm-up and were heading to the free weight area to do some bench presses.  On the way, I spotted a guy at one of the benches.  Okay, that’s not uncommon.  He was wearing a t-shirt.  Again, not uncommon.  The shirt had a logo on the left breast: A rebel flag.

Okay… that got my attention.  About the time that I was Ivory Soap sure that I saw what I thought I had seen, he turned around: The back of the shirt had a picture of a non-descript capitol building… flying a rebel flag.  But, even that isn’t what really stuck out.  The picture was surrounded, on the top and bottom, by: “I have a dream,” in big letters.

*blink blink*

Yeah.  It was a little odd.  Eric offered to buy my lunch if I went over and asked the guy, “So… what does your shirt mean?”  I was tempted to do so, but decided that it wasn’t worth my time or the effort.  But it was tempting…

It’s amazing how much longer it takes to level up when you aren’t getting double experience for your kills.

I joined a higher-level team to take on some Malta Operatives.  Ostensibly, I was going to work off the debt that I picked up a couple of nights ago.  Instead, I added to it.  I finally managed to knock it out, though.  But, I wound up biting off more than I could chew against a Behemoth Overlord (and his nosy, butt-inski friends) after I left that team.  So, I have 14K of debt left to grind through.

And pictures!

Taking on a Malta Group Hercules Class Titan:

Seven Nemesis troops (some are behind me) and a Warhulk.  Those odds were so unfair.  To them.

  • I’m (FINALLY) working on a long-overdue update to my site.  Thanks to for looking at it and making sure that the parts that I have completed didn’t go all ‘splodey.  With the new and nominally improved version, I’m including a new blog section, powered by WordPress.  Like , I’ll most likely syndicate the feed in RSS.
  • A few weeks ago, tagged me to list seven songs that I’m into.  I’ve mostly been listening to my iPod or iTunes, so there’s not a lot of “new” stuff… but here goes, in no particular order:
    1. Maktub – You Can’t Hide
    2. Yoko Kanno and the Seatbelts  – Tank!
    3. Prince – Pope
    4. Acafool – Hata Blockas  (heard it on the radio… in UTAH of all places… and it cracked me up)
    5. Geddy Lee – Home on the Strange
    6. Fatboy Slim (ft. Bootsy Collins) – The Joker  (with a tip of the hat to )
    7. emmet swimming – Birdman of Columbia and/or 8:45

  • (…the only thing missing is a Jell-OÖ® Pudding Pop)

  • Speaking of which: Edibles – Action figures you can eat.
  • : Whose shot first?
  • I finally got past Page #27 of “the puzzle.”
  • :  Not only did I click the link to the puzzle you sent me, I completed the Daily Set Puzzle (in 8:54).
  • Cheatsheets!!!
  • Natasha Henstridge as Joss Whedon’s Wonder Woman…?  Hmm.
  • :  I’m hoping for the best, but I’m still a little worried about this.  The second half of this article talks about it.

Namaste.
