Tuesday : 03 January 06
Not much to report today:

  • Work.
  • Home.
  • Nap.
  • Law & Order: SVU
  • Batman: The Animated Series

Tomorrow night is Cthulhu night. Nothing like battling the minions of Elder Gods to put a happy spin on the night.

Stray Toasters

  • I like this whole “four-day work week” thing.
  • Manic. And it’s not even Monday. Go figure.
  • The twelve miners, who had been trapped following an explosion in a West Virginia mine, were rescued. This is good. I think that I pay attention to “trapped miner” stories because my grandfathers were miners. In West Virginia, no less.
    <edit>
         The above was believed true when I went to bed.
         It turns out that one miner was found alive; the other twelve were dead.
         Their families had been celebrating for three hours before they learned the truth.

  • I started watching the Invader Zim ‘toons that Nyx gave me… months ago. Very good way to bring a smile to your face on a grey Monday Tuesday morning.

    Dib: This is me without fear… and a 62-pound hall pass.

  • sent me a link to this video. It starts off slowly, but it’s rather funny.
  • When the outside temperature rises, and the meaning is oh so clear
    One-thousand and one yellow daffodils begin to dance in front of you…. Oh, dear.
    Are they trying to tell you something?
    Are you missing that one final screw?
    You’re simply not in the pink, my dear.
    To be honest, you haven’t got a clue…

  • From today’s “Unintentional Porn Overheard at Work” file: “He had big enough stones.”
  • I like the Wizard of Oz theme of Blues Traveler’s Run Around video and it’s just a fun to watch.
    By the same token: Blind Melon’s No Rain: I know that the song drives a lot of people insane (especially when it gets stuck in their heads…), but I like it. And the video.

  • Jon Favreau Updates on John Carter of Mars
  • My Enemy, My Resolution

    For the New Year, I want villains.

    Realvillains. Old-school villains. Not anti-heroes, not misunderstoodcrusaders, not unfortunate lunatics. Power-mongers, that’s what I want.Warlords and evil tyrants. The type you could pummel and feel goodabout it.

  • Unintentionally Goatse-esque finger ring
  • : Storm in Winter
  • R & B (as in “Rhythm & Blues”)
  • Get set for a new Jackie Chan movie.
  • From Real Tech News: Count your, er, Blessings: 5,198 OS Security Flaws You Weren’t Affected by Last Year

Namaste.
