Oooooh Shit……….

Griffey is coming back….  I don’t know what the Mariners have been smoking, or if The New World Order (Mind-Control Division) itself is high….

I’ll be the first to admit that I’m no fan of his.  He’s an ungrateful jack-ass.  The people of King County are burdened with a stadium that he insisted on being built, and yet he spent less than one season here.  I think if they’re going to call Safeco Field the house that Griffey built, then Griffey should pay for it. Personally.

Nothing to see here. Move along. Again.

This is nothing really. Apparently one can now post straight from one's mobile phone straight to blogger...

Let’s have some opera!

Just because I can, here’s the entire Ring Cycle.  Slight truncated….

Betcha didn’t know that Elmer Fudd sang Wagner…

Oh, and he also did Rossini too:

So what’s been happening…

I haven’t dropped off the face of the earth yet.  Real Life sometimes intervenes, and I end up away form my computer.  Or it could be I’m just too farking lazy to click on the icon to fire up windows live writer….. A little bit of column A and a little bit of column b is involved.

Anyway, one of the stores located near my work called me in recently as there computer and a Very Important Piece of hardware wasn’t working (not a printer or a scanner, and what it is/was is irrelevant to the post at hand).  There problem was the drivers and the software were written for Windows XP, but the computer they were using had Windows Vista.  I showed them how to use compatibility mode, and we both agreed that there are two ways to lose money: gambling is the quickest, and upgrading to Vista is the surest…  I just hope that one day The Anti-Christ would put out something that doesn’t suck…

The latest toy

And I mean it literally.  Someone is designing a Lego cell phone.  I had Legos when I was growing up, and I made all sots of thing, but a functioning cell phone wasn’t one of them…

And in a Lego cell phone isn't your thing, then there’s also the Lego Space Battle cruiser Yamato

And this was found form somewhere on them intertubes:

Don’t try this at home (not that it’s really possible….)

Ok, I watched Star wars growing up.  You shoot laser.  Stuff blows up.  Like a planet, perhaps?  One of the scenes that stuck out in my mind was when they blew up Alderaan.  Anyway, somebody with way too much time on there hands has finally figured out how powerful the Death Star needed to be here.  Don’t let reality get in way of your Science Fiction…..

Six and a half years later

And I finally beat MechWarrior 4: Mercenaries…  The Anti-Christ actually did a fairly decent job (usually I just play the instant action).  Too bad they cancelled any further versions (I hear they even let go the Flight Sim people during the recent layoffs).  Damn, and this was better than any version of widows, too.
