Instead of paying for the hotel’s network connection, I decided to give my brand new EVDO card a shot. I was talking to one of AOL’s VP’s about my presentation and trying to find the time to write demos and she asked what I would do if I had a budget. Of course, I told […]
Why is it, the more expensive the hotel, the more they rape you on everything? I’m staying at a \$300 a night place, and they want \$5.00 for a bottle of water, \$3.00 for a soda and \$10 for internet for twenty-four hours. Hotel Avante in Mountain View is \$155 a night and they give […]
According to Salon: NBC will also restructure its early prime-time programming to focus on cheaper, unscripted shows like reality series and game shows.\ Uggg. Really, more reality crap? It’s like we’re in the Dark Ages of TV. Yes, there are bright spots, but waaaay too many reality shows already. It sounds like NBC is throwing […]
Soooooooooo, tonight’s Supernatural wasn’t quite up to the awesomeness that it had been exhibiting. Every show is allowed a down episode or two, right? (Remember “Beer bad?”) Sadly, there wasn’t even a cool ‘previously’ like usual. Poo!\ But, hey, there were some great one-liners and some awesome moments. A Duckie reference!

Vote for #8 for a friend of a friend: Flying Spaghetti Monster contest. Yea, I got hella cool friends.
Kevin came home at a decent time last night and we ate dinner all together. Later, Kevin and I sat together for over an hour while we watched tv. Baby, life is good.
You absolutely have to download this week’s Channel Frederator. Why? The first short is unreal, and the main character looks like the internet’s own Jon Morris!\ Channel Frederator is the show that turned me on to video podcasts. It’s chock-full of indy animation (uneven at times, but there are usually at least two gems per […]
I wish I had seen it: Cardinals choke, cuz I am evil that way. Instead, I was in bed by 7:30 nursing a headache the size of Mt Rushmore.\ This interview with Kristen Bell (from Veronica Mars) cracks me up, mostly because of the things she’s not saying and the new clarity on the things […]
As a developer who works on a site where users can paste in all manner of crappy code from all corners of the web, I’m here to beg. Please, for the love of all that is holy, it’s time to stop using document.write. Yes, I know that it’s being used in the header and footer […]
