I was on the fence about this election, Then something changed my mind. I saw “Sunday’s Boondocks” cartoon against Bush, with it’s plea implying obvious common sense. Then I listened to exerps from the Democratic convention on NPR, which is considered to the left although I think they are pretty straightforward. I heard Clinton, Al [...]
No bullet necessary. I simply entered another query into the toolbar, and it stopped. Actually, I randomly hit the keyboard and came up with: Results 1 – 10 of about 155 for sdgfs. Did you know that my finger frenzy actually means “Standard Dexterous Grapple Fixtures”? Wow. You learn each day anew how big the [...]
Dear Google: Thank you for developing a toolbar for my start bar in Windows XP. However, upon visitng a site within the “window” instead of Internet Explorer, Midi music started playing from the page and now I am unable to turn it off. As I was searching for the lyrics to “America the Beautiful” to [...]
First, the duck(s) at the farm had their chicks – And we have a tripod Russian hamster that was saved by Dr. Winkle of Southtowns Animal Hospital and needed a home. We would have named it “Tolstoi” (Tolstoy) if it was a boy, but named her Katherine (pronounced “Katrina”). Cute. Small. Fuzzy. We love her.
You’re license plate is New York “CSV 8825″. And you’re an ass. Going Westbound on Route 20 in the town of Lancaster around 2-3pm, I saw (and heard) the ambulance coming the other way. I put my blinker on away from them and slowed down to give them peace of mind like any considerate human [...]
Holy Shit. For the first time in the history of computers themselves, something actually worked on the first try. I installed a mail handler script from scratch and modified the HTML in a FrontPage generated interactive form. Simple for some, but I never did it before. And I never heard of any Einstein out there [...]
Watched most of the videos I bought from the Wegman’s close-out, but actually went a matinee movie with Mike (angryavatar). Spiderman 2 was even better than the first … but I’ll save my reviews for a Movie Review section on Kenville’s bulletin board. More updates coming right up!
Okay, I buy a book on the great religious texts of the world at the open air flea market at the antique mall in Orchard Park … pre-dating Huston Smith’s The Religions of Man, and the guy asks me what it’s about, adding his own commentary that for the most part (apart from idolatry) all [...]
Felt like garbage for two solid days, sludged through farm work (picking a bunch of unripe peapods by mistake), spilled chicken soup on the front passenger seat of the Festiva, and only feklt better after a shower this morning and realizing it was the most beautiful day outside I can ever remember. Spent a couple [...]
“You’re in the Army” with Ronald Regan,et alia. — how fiting. It was meaningful, especially the last song about going to war to never have to go again.
I heard “Don Quixote” by Gordon Lightfoot. I was strangely touched by it. Maybe I need to revisit Cervantes. I can strangely relate to it on many levels right now in my life. And also, last night, I couldn’t stop typinga draft of a short story, working title “Help File”. Don’t know if it will [...]
Wegmans is selling all their VHS tapes and no longer plans to carry then except for new releases — the DVD is now King. And it was cheaper to buy than rent, so I grabbed “Just Married” and “Children of the Corn” to watch with Chrissie. We watched the first one, which didn’t suck at [...]
