Mitt Romney has no chance. Magic Underwear. Where is the talk about the underwear? Why is it magic? I've always heard about Mormon undies, what is so special about them?

What the heck? Took my MacBook off the charger and the battery died within a few hours, why? The only thing I can think of is that I had my TransFlash usb thing plugged in. Anyway, Apple has released an update to battery management just this week. All I wanted to do was charge up my "new" ubuntu iBook. Now I need to get the wireless working on the uBook.

I've dragged my feet for so long I wonder if it's even worth selling my old iBook. I guess I might get 700 500 bucks if I'm lucky on eBay. But I can use it for something if I put Ubuntu on it. I'm such a nerd, I want to use linux on my old mac, can't sell it, must extract all value from the overpriced Apple hardware.

Kidding about the overpriced thing. Nobody but Apple made PPC laptops (I think). If you spec out current Apple and non-apple laptops with pretty much all the same features you'll find that they are close in price.

What a great lyric by the fantastic group Death From Above 1979. Love the start of that song. That's why I put it up there on the left. If you listen to the lyrics .... blaha blahh

Song title is actually "Romantic Rights", not "Blood on Our Hands" as blog.musik reports.


Your romantic rights are all that you got
Push them down son it's more than just lip
C'mon girls I know you know what you want
C'mon, C'mon now and give them all shhhhh
You're beating walls now you just won't quit
You play with shapes but they just won't fit
I know you love me you don't know what you like
You're watching TV I stay up all night

I don't need you
I want you [2x]

South Carolina kid is heating things up
His wounds are bleeding and we're filling the cup
This game will save us if we don't die young
C'mon, c'mon now yea have some fun

Come here baby I love your company
We could do it and start a family
She was living alone unhappily
We could do it, it's right romantically [3x]

I don't need you
I want you [6x]

A long time ago I considered making a porn site, a thumbnail type porn site. Part of my research involved signing up with sites that provide the porn. Ever since then I'll get a "What's new" email once a month from one particular provider whose message will have my username and password as part of the email. Isn't email sent in plain text? Couldn't anybody along the way take over my account? I should complain, but then I wouldn't get free porn in my inbox...

I'll name 'em ounique.com

Put a Blog.musik thing on that just wont fit in the current layout, don't see a way to resize it in the javascript. This sucks because I'm lazy. I want my "Death From Above 1979"! Pretty sure that this is the song during the start of "Human Giant" a new favorite show on MTV.

BTW, I knew I could just tweak the css to make it fit, but it still doesn't really fit, design wise.

Say goodbye to sites like Pandora.com if the royalty rules aren't changed. Why should Pandora have to pay more than Satellite radio? It's not fair damn it. Sure Pandora is covered with ads, they are there to pay the current royalties.

What would the TV present about all the victims in the VTech shooting without the internets? TV presenters read from student's blogs, nice, I'm sure some bloggers will get semi-famous because they survived. I read about Dateline trolling on Facebook for friends of the shooter or witnesses to appear on TV. That's better than just reading from blogs. At least it's an attempt toward some original reporting.

I'm one of the smart people that have just the right amount of taxes taken out of my paycheck to cover my federal tax bill. Thought for sure I'd be paying tax, but thanks to that long distance tax refund thing ended up with a 54 dollar refund. Decided to apply the refund to next year's taxes. So I'm not gonna be buying an HDTV or Apple TV or Wii anytime soon.

I've decided to keep the Amazon context ads, need the income (haha, right, never made a dime). No, the real reason is because I want to see what kind of ads the Amazon bots will produce. If I thought my site had any traffic I'd nix the context ads toot suite due to the annoying factor.

I really wanted to buy the This is not a Pipe t-shirt. At first blush it's a take off on the Magritte painting of an actual smoking type pipe with the text underneath stating "This is not a pipe" in French. When I think about the t-shirt it's not just a rip off of Magritte. That truly is not a pipe on the t-shirt. Mario can't go down that. Oh wait, now we can get into art crap, like a painting of a pipe isn't an actual pipe and that's what Magritte was saying. Either way you want to look at it Mario can't go down the pipe on the t-shirt, he'll die.

That's what I wondered this morning while I was bent over, I felt something shift in my lower back, and an immediate discomfort. Darn thing (my back) stiffened up throughout the day. The pain isn't really too bad, just annoying, nothing like the pain when I dislocated or whatever it was I did to my hip a few years ago. Anyway here's a link to some back pain info that I've been looking at recently. My back is gonna feel like hell in the morning.

I don't know what happens once we die, or if there is a god. But I do know that Jesus was a Zombie. Only a zombie can wake from being dead. How that can mesh into the Bible I don't know. I want to see a cartoon with Zombie Jesus pushing back the stone covering his cave and then eating brains.

Got my R4DS on Monday, takes forever for the mail to arrive from Hong Kong. I took a picture of the package it came in, might put that up later if it looks ok. I like to think of myself as a law abiding type guy, so I'll only use my R4DS for homebrew and games I already own.

Does Nintendo even try to take down ROM sites?

I will fess up to trying various ROMs out, if I like the game I'll buy it, promise! One such game is "Elite Beat Agents", buying it for sure, too much fun! I should buy a used version since I've played it already. Hmm, the used market doesn't give money back to the game publishers. I want more "Elite Beat" type games so I should buy a retail version. Trying to be an ethical pirate is hard work. A game I won't be buying is the original "Rayman" for the DS, don't like it and will delete it next time I have a chance.

I've got to pick exterior colors for my house. Think I'll go with historically traditional ones for a Craftsman style bungalow. Didn't find much searching until I found this Flickr photo set. Some kind of green for the body is what I'm leaning towards. The neighbors on the left have a yellowish house and the guy on the right has a white one. I've got some time to decide because it's way too cold right now to paint.

Did a walkthru of my burned house today. Everything has been stripped down to bare floors and studs. That pic is where the fire almost burned through the living room floor. Keep in mind that there was carpet and another wood floor that the flames ate up before creating those almost holes.

That's what I thought when watching "The Office" earlier tonight. Turns out that hump wasn't the one from Cheaters. It was Kenneth Cole, who happens to look a lot like the hump from Cheaters. Kenneth Cole designs shoes and other stuff that they sell at Macy's. I don't think he confronts people who are cheating on their spouses. Maybe he confronts people who wear counterfeit shoes.

My latest electric bill showed up in my inbox today. It wasn't as good as my Qwest bill where they owe me, pretty good though. Only 21 bucks, compared to the last one before the fire which was over 100 bucks more than that. Almost hate to move back after all the repairs are done, really enjoy these cheap utilities.

It's been almost 30 days since I last slept in my own bed. Don't think I'd want to sleep in it now, probably in a landfill. Thankfully those two aren't allowed in my guest room, or else there'd be hair all over my new MacBook Pro. Should only be three more months of their crap to put up with, "... feed me, pet me, play with me ..."

And, I should find out next week for sure how the whole "contents" thing will work with my homeowner's insurance. Hope that ambulance ride will be covered by my health insurance, picked up my mail Friday and there was a notice claiming that they think some other insurance might cover it because it was the result of an accident. Had to fill out a form, now I get to wait and see.

Got a new bill from Qwest in my email today. They actually owe me 26 bucks. Not everything sucks when your house almost burns down. I guess they owe me because they bill in advance. I got lucky when they agreed to let me out of the two year commitment, but c'mon, I'm not in the house, how can I use their DSL on melted phone lines? DirecTV let me put the service on hold for six months and will give me a free move-in thing, or something. Awesome!

Do pugs ever stop shedding? Sheesh, hair everywhere. Staying at my folks place for who knows how long and they've got a couple of pugs. I would think that in the cold weather they'd keep as much hair as possible. Maybe when it gets colder.

iPhone glass replacement kit showed up today. The glass in the kit was broken. Shoot.

Dummy at work told me that today. He voted, but didn't vote for president, just local elections. All because of the electoral college system we have, his lame state of Idaho only has 4. He claims that he hates the electoral college system and would rather that the popular vote would prevail. Hey dummy, you didn't vote for president, so yours didn't count period. Obama won the popular vote as well.

The movie still sucks, but it looks a lot better in Blu-Ray. I will say that you can sort of tell the bad guys from the good guys in the higher def version. Viewing the DVD version I couldn't really follow the action, or tell which robot was which. To be honest I was catching up on email and stuff during the heavy CGI scenes. Just wanted to see what's her name in a belly shirt and short skirt in high def.
