What is it about fart stories that make bad days all better?
I won’t even go into the events of the weekend or today… needless to say, I need another weekend.

Goin’ ta redesign – Yes,
Goin’ ta redesign – Yes, yes I am. I want something lighter and a little different. I’ve been playing with the idea of using Fisher Price little people in some way, I just haven’t figured out how. My mom brought out all my old toys for Max, and one of his favorites is my old Little People house and its inhabitants. They include the bald green guy, Donna Reed, a butler in a tux and tophat, two little kids, an Indian chief and a construction worker (both part of that classic Little People collection, the Village People Backstage Baccanal Playset). Stay tuned… it should get interesting.

PhotoDude does an excellent job
PhotoDude does an excellent job of finding quotes about, and commenting on, the state of the world. A great source of small stories, larger ideas and scary concepts.

Teaching them to swear in
Teaching them to swear in English… It makes me want to move to France and help in the cause.

Damn you, IE5 for the
Damn you, IE5 for the Mac!! Damn you!! I have all this cool stuff I want to do that works in IE 5 for the PC, and Mozilla for everything – and you’re the only one left who doesn’t work, but all those Mac People use you! What’s WRONG with you? Can’t you get updated or something? Is that too much to ask?

I have a new hero…
I have a new hero… Too Much Coffee Man!! I remember him being cool when I was in high school, but I hadn’t thought about him until I saw him mentioned in a blog this morning. Too funny…

Yes, I’m still waiting on
Yes, I’m still waiting on people to give me data that I can then manipulate and build things with. I’m waiting on things to be installed so I can use them. I’m waiting on people to figure out that they have a job to do and then do it. In the meantime, I’m using my mad webSkills © to build fabulous philanthropic things that will benefit mankind. Can I tell you what they are? Well, I’d rather not because I’m trying to be humble about the whole thing. But, it’s SO hard when it’s this cool. You know? I want to show everyone what I did (am doing – it’s not QUITE finished yet) and say, “See, ain’t this neat?” But, I’ll be good and save it.
On a completely different note, I hate the networks. Their handling of their “entertainment” has been pretty sad so far. Case in point: NBC’s Third Watch ran a two hour docu-weepy about firefighters. Now, if it was called “Dateline” or “an NBC News Special”, that would be fine. But, they’re using the country’s pain, and these firefighters experiences as an advertisement for their crappy show. To make matters worse, the shows premiere next week actually has the balls to cover the days of 9/10 and 9/11 from their fictional characters points of view. I can’t believe it. I’m in shock that NBC could think that this is a good idea. West Wing’s tolerance info-mercial was bad enough. Now, they have to go and do this? I may never watch NBC again.
Which bring up another TV point: Why don’t I care about the new season? There are three shows I watch with any enthusiasm now: The West Wing, Once and Again and That 70’s Show. Everything else could get cancelled and I wouldn’t care. I couldn’t sit through last week’s Survivor. I hate ER now. Maybe it’s because I crave news. Maybe I just don’t feel the need to be “entertained” by fiction as much now. I’d much rather watch a concert or a sporting event. I think it’s that nothing the networks could come up with could be as moving or traumatic as what’s been happening. In their attempts to recover they’re only making it worse.

I don’t believe I laughed,
I don’t believe I laughed, but this is the funniest thing I’ve read in ages. Taliban Late-Night Comedy (via Elise, which I think was a Beethoven song, weren’t it?)
