“Weird Al” is back again folks. Batten down the hatches. Put on your pocket protectors. Cause today, we’re “White and Nerdy”.
I say “K’plah!” to “Weird Al”. Be seeing you at Paramount’s Great America when you go on tour. 🙂

One of the new 80 GB ones! It’s pretty sweet. It’s what I always wanted.
Oh um… yeah…. Forgot. It’s not for me. sigh. It’s a prize giveaway for an open house we’re having at work.
Heh. Maybe someday, somehow. For now I’ll just HAVE to suffer with Cath’s ANCIENT 3G version hand-me-down.
It’s not even in color.
Fuck Arlen Specter and his president loving assmunch cronies who follow him.
This stuff just pisses me off so much. With apologies to David Byrne… “This is not my beautiful America”
COOL video site
Just found this awesome video site. Flash required. It’s fullscreen (press “f” to toggle) and has several different categories of videos. Hover your mouse at the bottom of the screen to see the tabbed list of videos. Some great ones. The picture below is a computer representation of Claire de Lune by Debussy. Cool stuff.

Now in Technorati
In an effort to make my blog more public (eek) I’ve created a Technorati profile. One of the requirements to verify that I own this blog (and who besides me would even WANT this blog. 🙂 ) is to post something containing some special html. So here it is. In all it’s glory.
Uma… Oprah… Uma… Oprah…

The latest version of the WORLD’S BEST WEB BROWSER (IMNSHO of course) is out. 🙂
If you’re already using any of the 1.5 versions of Firefox then you can either wait for it to update in the background, unless you’ve disabled that ability or you could click the “Help” menu and then “Check for Updates”.
DO IT NOW!!! 🙂 heh
Jackass in Mountain View paper
So I was getting my usual thursday sandwich today at this great corner deli I love and they have copies of the local Mountain View newspaper on several of the tables. While waiting for my lunch I was perusing the paper and on page 3 of the paper they had a topless woman!!! wha? HAH. Just kidding (wish I wasn’t).
Truthfully, they had an area where a question was posed to several people and their response and picture were posted. The question in today’s paper? I don’t remember it word for word but let’s just say it went like this…
“Were you suprised by the way that Steve Irwin, The Crocodile Guy, died?”
4 of the 5 people were nice saying how sad it was. They weren’t surprised since it can be a dangerous job. Then there’s the 5th person I would like to name “Waste of Greymatter”. WOG had this to say… (again, not word for word but the sentiment is right)
“I’m not surprised so much as amused. I mean who get’s killed by a harmless creature like that”
AMUSED!!!???!?!! WTF!!!! Stop that person from procreating. PLEASE!!
Jackass!
AND the environment! It’s holding an employee meeting today at Shoreline Amphitheatre. Now, I enjoy a good all-hands employee meeting. I’ve been to a few myself, back in the heyday of the dotcom boom. We even had one at Great America. That was fun. There was this “Mission Impossible” theme (which isn’t as bad as that sounds) and a comedian, oh oh oh, and GUY KAWASAKI as a speaker. THAT kicked ass!!!! But I digress.
I JUST realized that Cathy and I forgot to celebrate my half-birthday on the first of this month. And it was my 69th no less!!!! <sigh> But wait what’s this? According to this calculator, my 1/2 birthday is August 31st. Frak that! I’ve always celebrated on September 1st and that’s what I’m gonna keep doing. You can’t stop me. JUST TRY!!! 🙂
I know I know. 1/2 birthday? What are you a freak? Well. YES I am. And PROUD of it spank you very much. Tthhhpppptttt.
Celebrate everything you can!!!
I’ll leave you with something my mom just forwarded to me that reinforces what I just said…
