I read so many blogs regularly now that I feel like I know some of these people, and they are REALLY COOL.
You see, the good thing about good blogs is that you don’t have to actually know the people you’re reading about and interacting with. You don’t have to hear the annoying way they ask [...]

The L. Ron Future is Here!
December 28th, 2002 · 2 Comments
Just like every pulp science fiction author predicted:
A madman has made a human clone!
If this is true, it’s just too creepy and amazing to believe. I mean, look at this dude’s Battlestar Galactica garb. That’s so sweet.
Of course, if this dude made a clone, then I’m pretty sure I’m capable of figuring out [...]

Back with a Free Pass!
December 28th, 2002 · 3 Comments
I’m back from my trip. Look for posts, photos, etc. once I settle in, but just to summarize: fucking awesome.
Now, I thought I’d share a quick story that happened to me right before I left. I was heading into the MARTA (Atlanta’s subway/train line) station and digging in my pocket for some quarters so [...]

More worst kept secrets
December 19th, 2002 · 1 Comment
A recent article in the New Yorker featured phrases such as “secret directives” and “secret undercover team.” News Flash-that this journalist even knew about such things and subsequently published this-this leads me to believe that the adjective “secret” has been precluded.

One Nite Alone… Live!
December 12th, 2002 ·
I received my “One Nite Alone… Live!” Four-CD boxed set from the NPG Music Club yesterday. It’s a two-disk live Prince album, with a bonus live after-party show recording and a bonus CD of Prince playing solo piano and singing. Overall: pretty damned sweet. Despite the continuing tradition of failing to spell [...]

Nate Rocks

Thanks to Nathan, my CSS and web graphics guru (who taught me everything I know about Photoshop), for the CSS tip that fixes pages like this.
Now I can re-format all my entries and indexes with two-column layouts so they don’t look so stupid.
Thanks, Nate!

Fleeting Perfection
December 8th, 2002 · 6 Comments
Ah! The fleeting perfection of a perfectly-brewed espresso. Un cafe. Few pleasures in life are so simultaneously complex and simple. An espresso is truly for the moment. Unlike a fine wine, it does not improve with age. Enjoy immediately.
The unctuous crema, the rich aroma, the uplift in spirit—they [...]

A lazy stroll through Frankfurt, Germany
Dreamy Scribe
December 5th, 2002 · 3 Comments
When I was home in Colorado for Thanksgiving, I found an old journal of mine that I kept when I played drums for Taung Child (ca. 1996). The idea was that I was going to actually focus on the musician side of my life and take notes, get intellectual on music, and basically be [...]

Plagiarize, plagiarize, plagiarize!
Why do you think the good Lord
Made you eyes?
Of course I don’t know who had the idea first. This explanation is certainly more pretentious.
