Brian and I rang in the new year just now with a traditional smooch, a traditional (if very dry) bottle of champagne, and a traditional making-his-younger-brother-try-said-champagne. I give you his pronouncement, as an inspiration to us all through the year of 2006…
My god, this tastes like ass!
Happy new year, everyone.

Amusing bit for the day
Posted in Uncategorized on December 30, 2005 | Leave a Comment »
We went to a (rather good) seafood place in Richland for lunch today, and on the way back we checked out a GameCrazy that was located nearby. (Aside: I'm not sure if this is a chain-wide hiring policy or if I just hit the right particular franchise, but this was one of the [...]
On the off chance anyone's wondering what's happened to me…

As (I hope) I mentioned previously, Brian and I have been in Kennewick, at his mother's house, for the holidays. I've had regular computer access; however, in the tradition of the best vacations, this one's been rather uneventful, so I figure there isn't a whole lot to talk about. We've been around a [...]

For some reason, I'm rather amused that beauty ads are taking ideas from ancient Egyptian artwork…though I suppose Nefertiti would be the logical choice for a cosmetics ad. I wonder if there would be any way for her descendants to sue for likeness rights…
And now, for an official holiday cockle-warming moment…

All right! Perseverance Theatre is bringing back Hedwig and the Angry Inch for this season, and they're staging it at Marlintini's – which aside from being right down the street from our neighborhood, means they'll have more space and a better sound system to play with. Given what a dynamite production this was [...]
Boyfriend quote of the day…

“I'm trying to think of the nicest way to put this…he sometimes gives the distinct impression that if he fell off of a cliff, he would have to stop on the way down and ask directions.”
All right, let's see how this works…

Admittedly, this is mostly for 's benefit, but I did some digging around on Bittorrent and found a capture of the 1988 Canadian “The Cat Came Back” cartoon. It's not great quality (looks like a VHS capture), but it's watchable, and I thought the cartoon itself was pretty amusing. Especially the ending.
Supposedly it'll [...]
Quick question

Does anyone have any suggestions for a (preferably free) online storage space that would be useful for storing and sharing a video clip of about 70-odd MB? No huge amount of bandwidth needed, it'd only be with the people here…
Better things

First and foremost, the Crud (as I have mentally dubbed it) has mostly receded, leaving me with more energy and an only-slightly-aching sinus. This is something of a relief, since I didn't want (and couldn't afford) to miss another day of work and was really getting tired of the whole pain/discomfort/bother thing anyway. [...]
