A thought for tonight.

This occurred to me while on the bus: Respect is a two way street. Don't complain about not getting it when the driver tells you to watch your language. Unless, you like walking after you get banned from Pierce Transit.

EDIT: Yes. I know already I can't spell....

Moving Update

Lease has been signed, security deposit has been paid.  Move in starts tomorrow.  My other roommates have found places to go.  It's just we now have to get there.

If you don't see me for a while....

It's because my Real Life® (ie $day-job & my move) is going to be taking precedence in my priorities for the next week or to.  Until then:

Reader, adieu.

It's a holiday today.

No it's not Holiday, nor is it International Talk Like A Pirate Day.  It's Left Hander's Day.  A day that I can celebrate (being a southpaw, too).  Some other southpaws include (in no particular order):

  1. Matthew Broderic
  2. Charlie Chaplin
  3. Kirk Cobain
  4. George H. W. Bush (not the current moron in the White House, but his father)
  5. Bill Clinton
  6. Isaac Newton
  7. Benjamin Franklin
  8. Leonardo daVinci
  9. Michelangelo
  10. Ned Flanders
  11. Napoleon

You can have too much coffee

As this 17-year-old learned the hard way.  You don't need that much coffee to see The Underpants Gnomes (in fact if you don't wee them, then you haven't had enough).

Who's going to win

Pirates or Ninjas.  Of course, being a devout Pastafarian, I have to go for the Pirates.  After all, they are The Chosen People of The Flying Spaghetti Monster.

Moving.....

I will be moving soon.  I've already been to my new apartment, and I have the keys.  If all goes well, I will sign the lease and move in next week.  My access to the Internet shouldn't be that interrupted (I've got the cable guy coming in on Saturday to set up service at my new apartment, and I've made the arrangements to have the computer there.  This is something I don't want to do (moving is such a pain in the ass), but I have to.  On the bright side, the bus line I'll be one is so much better (chief at $day-job will be so much happier that I can stay later without having to make arrangements ahead of time). 

So long, Puyallup.

Found

Today while cleaning my room, I noticed an anti-static bag underneath one of my speaker shelves.  It turns out to be my old 56k modem that I thought I threw out.  I've upgraded to broadband (and I connect through an Ethernet card, so I can use a router firewall), and I eventually took out the modem, as it had come loose and was causing installation issues.  I'm still going to keep it, as it does have HPNA, and it may come in handy later on (more importantly, I have the drivers for it).

My new apartment

This may not look much, but it will be my new home in a short while. Oh, did I mention that I'm moving?

 

EDIT: Yes, I know it's blurry, but what do you expect from a cell phone camera?

2 out of 3

The Mariners just beat the Angels to take 2 out of three for the series.  Welcome to the pennant race, Mariners.  You're only three games out of first place, and only one game out of the wild card.  The New World Order (Mind-Control Division) can be interesting if the team you're rooting for is a contender.  And we're not the Yankees, to beat (note to Mr. Steinbrenner, you can't just buy another World Series ring with team payroll.  You actually need to be less than 7 games behind the Bosox).

This is what happens

When a windows user gets a tattoo.  I wonder if The Anti-Christ has taken notice, yet.
