Suprise!


Microsoft, probably watching in futility, had some tricks up it's sleeve as the world ate up Firefox cake. As I was enjoying a rare moment online I happened to see a little update balloon in the corner. Figuring this may be an update on a worldwide virus or attack on their perfect software I promptly clicked on the balloon and commenced downloading. I was alarmed, however, to discover that Microsoft's update was actually simply a cover on a much larger scheme. To have the world unknowingly download Internet Explorer. For some reason or another I was prompted if I wanted to download IE7. Umm, no. They should just go back to watching the world eat up Firefox cake. On the other hand, and by the same token, Firefox small development team is actually eating Internet Explorer cake. It appears a tradition has begun. They also received a cake from IE developers on the release date of Firefox 2. I wonder how it tastes? The cake looks good, but I fear it's past its expiration date and full of bugs. I wonder when they will start give cakes to the Ubuntu (Popular version of Linux) development team?

And you thought you were pissed

I'm just going to go ahead and throw this out there: I'm pretty sure you haven't gotten naked and lifted a bicycle over your head in protest of high gas prices. I anticipate they have probably already done this in Portland, not due to high gas prices, rather just for fun. For the rest of us who consider ourselves sane I anticipate we will all be getting naked when gas prices here in America rise 2.2 times to the current levels enjoyed in Europe. Yes, and I will join you downtown. Just please don't bring your camera.

Firefox 3

download by tomorrow to set the record for the most downloads for one program in one day. this is what yahoo has to say about it

There isn’t yet a Guinness World Record for most software downloaded in a single day, so Mozilla will truly have rewritten the record books if it manages to set one. The group’s hoping for 5 million downloads–not an unreasonable figure, given that Firefox 2 was downloaded 1.6 million times the first day of its release. Indeed, Mozilla’s already well on its way to reaching that goal: 1,721,775 users had already pledged to download the browser upon its release today at 10 a.m. PDT.

download now and be a part of history

Firefox is exploding..............watch it explode in real-time: death to IE counter

Follow up on DJ Augustin

He was 4 of 18 from the field and 2 of 6 from 3 pt range but did make all 4 of his free throws as well as 4 turnovers on 39 minutes. He had more minutes than anyone else on the team. After watching for 5 minutes it appeared to me that DJ was smoking crack last night with some of his "good friends." But no, let's let him play it out, he's how we got here. I'm not really sure what the coach was thinking, but....

Good job! You made all your free throws!

You suck!


...there goes my bracket

zomg. finally i know what it means. THANKS URBAN DICTIONARY!!! ZOMG!

ZOMG was the ruler of the planet XYRZON until 2451 AD, when he was overthrown by KFOP after the battle of SHMUR. the battle marked the violent end to ZOMG'S noble reign as ultra-lord. KFOP soon proved to be an incapable ruler of XYRZON, and the planet collapsed into chaos in 2453. since that day, the residents of XYRZON have used ZOMG as a declaration, nay, an exclaimation of hope. hope that one day peace shall return to XYRZON, on the shoulders of a truly worthy king.

ZOMG, i love cupcakes.

the fed

Please support the abolition of the federal reserve system proposed by Congressman Ron Paul. Form letter already written. Simply included your contact information and its on its way. FYI for those who don't know, the federal reserve was created in the early 20th century as a way of further securing the wealth of the super wealthy bankers of this nation. Secret meetings were held at Jekyll Island and thus was born: The Federal Reserve. No joke, do the research yourself then come back and fill out the form letter and send it on its way. Hopefully legislation is passed which leads to the end of the reserve and endless inflation and money creation. Thank you.

concerning my up and coming independance day

Differentiating between wants and needs of course.

All things vintage. Suprisingly all of the following were actual possessions of the family at one point.

Super NES (just the console. I have everything else. Somehow it broke in my most recent move.)

The old Sega Genesis and original Sega with the card slot games. I know that we had them at some point I just don't know where they would be.

The original NES we had in the pool room and all the games. Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe I acquired all of that from a friend for 20 bucks, but throughout the years all these vintage/classic games and consoles have been lost or stolen. Probably both.

The old Atari floppy drive and games. Some vintage joysticks would be cool too. The old Atari keyboard and accompanying cartridges that slid into the back of the keyboard.

So basically all I'm asking is that these classics be scrounged up and sent my way. No big deal. Thats all I want this year folks. Be a pal and put a stamp on a box and send it my way.

Upon receipt of the aforementioned I will consider myself truly free and independent at long last. Free at last, free at last.........

jet stories from yesterday's past

on my flight home from washington a couple of weeks ago* I sat in front of an interesting dude. Mosiah was a 37 year old self proclaimed punkster dressed in all black with a bright red mohawk that stood about a foot high.

He made quick friends with the stewardess who asked about his music because her son loved what she referred to as punk music. How that came up I don't really know, maybe it was the all black clothing, tats or red hair? Anyway, after going on and on about being famous he shut his trap for a couple minutes.

Then began the conversation with the man sitting next to him. Let it be known that I was by no means intentionally ease dropping. I could not sleep and I was at present unable to do anything else as I was unable to use personal electronic devices. Anyway turns out that the guy was from Washington and was just heading back for some tests. He claimed to be having what is called "deja vu." Or symptoms similar to the experience we call deja vu. Incidently this man, who who we shall refer to as "deja," instantly fell in love with this much older man. The love was pure and simple adoration from one man to another and was not weird in any sort of way.

Although I did consider it odd. What was odd about it? Maybe it was the punks elevated mohawk. Maybe it was the striking colors. I'm sure that it was not natural. Maybe it was the ease with which complete strangers shared the most intimate details of their lives. After having painfully endured what seemed like an eternity of the man on man emo fest - I ran from the plane ahead of the two men.

Upon getting my bags I found myself waiting for my ride. Upon waiting, I made my last of several peculiar observations: I saw and heard "deja" on his cell telling his friend with elation, "I just met the most interesting man....."

*the previous experience occured in September 2007

I don't know about you but I can barely sing forwards....
