I’ve been playing around with the templates in the blog so that I can make more varied style sheet theme things. I also went ahead and siwtched the code for the main page to do the popup comment thing again.

Extreme Dakota!

I don’t really know why I find the phrase ‘Extreme Dakota’ so blasted hillarious, but I think I’m going to do something with it sometime. I don’t know what, though. Skateboarding Sioux Chieftain? Fictional Great Plains State? Whatever! It’ll be awesome, yeah. I hope. Uh, anyhow. Weekend’s been kind of boring. Did some research for […]

I mean, holy crap, man. This Strong Bad guy has been reading email… and… other cool stuff… for, like… a really long time, and he still totally awesome everytime he does it. Especially if it involves the Cheat. Yeah, that the Cheat is where it’s at, man. Well, I gotta go, or else someone will […]

Yeah, so I’m reading an article on wired today, and there’s an ad about Samsung’s new DDR2 RAM chips (I still say RD RAM was better, shut up).

Man, I sprained my ankle getting off the shuttle to the long-term parking at Memphis international getting back from my trip home this weekend. Thie trip was pretty quality for the most part– I got a haircut, and my braces fixed, and some new glasses, and I brought all my coats back to the dorm. […]

Seriously. One that can do 33s, 45s, and 78s, stereo, and has an automatic changer deal (you know, you stack a bunch of LPs on and it wil drop one down onto the turntable when the previous record is complete). It’d be so cool. And by cool, I mean totally sweet.

Today was most pessimal. It was a steady downpour for most of the daylight hours, making everything outside a total pisser. Except for talking to a few people online, and going to Mall Wart to buy some milk and a paper towel holster, I didn’t do anything, primarily because there isn’t anything to do. Oh, […]

So today was messed up. No Elrod class today (he’s off at some conference in Pittsburgh), so I got some lunch and then went back to my room. Fell asleep at three, woke up 7ish. Uh, since everybody I knew was off doing something else, I snagged some grub from Popeyes (three piece spicy dark […]
