End. Of. The. Week.

Last night, post-work, was good.  And quiet.  CSI: Spaghetti.  And a lot of not much else… although, I did go out for a late night mocha.  I found it rather amusing that, by the time I got back home, I was about ready to hit the rack… and did… and didn’t have any issues falling asleep.

And, on top of all that: I was up before the alarm went off this morning.  Go figure.

So far, the day’s been good.  I’m still stuck as to what’s hanging up this problem system.  But, I’ll either fix it… or drop kick it.  Into Utah Lake.

And, tonight: Clitorati.

Stray Toasters

  • I have made a horrible – yet terribly amusing – discovery:  The Crüxshadows’ Earthfall is just slightly more uptempo than Prince’s When Doves Cry… but with a little tweaking, they blend in a decent way.  I have been driving around listening to Earthfall and singing Doves over it.  And laughing a lot.
  • That led me to another discovery: Pacemaker, a WinAmp plugin that lets you modify the tempo, pitch and speed of an mp3… on the fly.
  • For the record: When Doves Cry has to be sped up 3% to work.  It’s still not perfect… but it’s not bad.
  • showed me a link to a site called Jewcy.
  • Damn Pepperdge Farm for making their Pretzel Goldfish so damned tasty!
  • Steampunky assemblage clock
  • You know who you are…
  • Derek watched American History X last night.  His training is proceeding nicely.
  • HOWTO make a Carbonite Han Solo chocolate bar
  • Next time someone tells you to “Shove a cork in it,” show them this.
  • Who can turn the stove on with her smile?
    Who can take a bubblebath
    And suddenly fill it with crocodiles?
    ‘Cause it’s you, Dot, and you should know it
    Put nitro on a bridge go ahead and blow it
    Mud is all around, I guess it’s Spring
    Name another crooner, other than Bing
    Don’t throw your hat up in the air
    Cause what might land is a Frigidaire!
    Dot!
  • I found a link to this The Horrible Pirates webcomic… and the last panel reminded me of this.

Namaste.
