I am. And I’ve come up with a list of ways to tell if you are too. Can you use your gut as a portable table? You’d buy a sports car, but the thought of getting in and out of it deters you. Lose twenty pounds and no one even notices. You know what dunlap’s […]
Jen is strongly refuting my charge of infrequent seat-lifting. I think we’ve come to a consensus to blame it either on the supernatural or Max. And just an update for those of you who may be wondering – I only pee sitting down at home. In public, I’m a stand-up manly urinal guy.
It’s a strange day. I’ve been reading about the demise of a company I once respected, and a love story I’ve watched from afar (so far that I’ve only exchanged e-mails, but wow, it’s been a hell of a story – one I hope they never make into a movie because I don’t think anyone […]
I’m thinking about moving my site to Hub.org. They provide AOLserver + Postgres hosting at reasonable prices, and well, I’ve realized that I want to start doing more with this site, and my current host just won’t allow me to do it. I’m not sure of the timing of everything, but expect to hear more […]
Just a helpful hint to the folks in Intercourse, PA: You need a Cherry Festival.
My son is being brainwashed. He’s a member of the pint-sized Blue Army, and there isn’t much I can do about it. I am weak before its power. I have surrendered him to power greater than my own. He wears his almighty “Teve-schurt” all the time, and waits impatiently when it needs to be washed. […]

But, there are some who seem to thrive on impossible and arbitrary deadlines, insisting that they know how to do something the “right” way even though they’re not the […]
This round’s questions are from Derek at WebJunkiesPalace. Good questions… Ok so this is a little one sided, but I have to ask… why AOL? I mean I know that they are advertised as #1, but that seems by volume sales only(ribbing just a bit). That’s an excellent question, and I honestly don’t have an […]
Speaking of geekgasm…. If you’re using Mozilla or Netscape 6.x, you can now change how lawver.net looks. Go to View -> Use Stylesheet, and you should see the option “Deco” there. Choose and watch the purpleness!
Why do we geeks get so excited by technology? Why do we go into convulsions of joy when we build something that works? It’s art, baby. I’ve figured it out. Writing code is an artform. Writing good code (where good is defined by each individual geek, unfortunately) is the equivalent of Waterlilies by Van Gogh. […]
