Back to Connecticut

folks who never say motherfucker.

Merry Christmas!

Holiday music

Nothing says "Happy Germans" like a little Beethoven.

-This is a link to a large file of some kind
-So is this

If folks could keep this running as a little soundtrack in their ugly, horsetooth, pointy little heads they wouldn't drive like assholes and make me go all "sickhouse on they asses".

Yah buzzcut, no-style-Chevy driving nitwits!
I didn't know that thing came with standard driver- and passenger-side DOUCHEBAGS!

Happy shopping everyone!

Carl Sagan ten years on - Contact film/book differences

Huge props to Carl Sagan, my parents, sisters, and my bro-in-law Dale for turning me on to science and critical thought back when I was a wee lad with an even worse haircut. A "what-you-see-is-what-you-get" cosmos is a wondrous and bewildering enough thing without going over the edge and looking for the invisible man in the sky.

I always found it interesting that they changed the ending of the movie Contact to diverge from the book. I wonder what Ann Druyan was thinking when she signed off on this or if Carl was aware of it too.

In the movie it seems that Ellie Arroway is made to accept that faith is the only thing that will vindicate her. She comes back from her journey to the aliens with absolutely no solid evidence.
"Hope you believe me 'cuz I got nothing here. Bupkiss. Not even a t-shirt."

In the book she is given inside information about the creation of the universe and uses a supercomputer to prove the existence of a universal designer. Science and faith are united in a way that even an atheist like myself found very satisfying and imaginative.

Deep thoughts

As the holidays and the new year approach year carefully consider the important things in your life.

Reflect on the differences between:
-Crispy
-Crunchy
-Hard

Flat panel mania

Has anyone ever found a non-flat panel display?

I'm looking for a sort of convex panel display.

Seriously, $300 for a 23-inch LCD HDTV that can double as a gaming/PC monitor.

Not to worry

I seem to have caused some concern to my readers with my post yesterday about National Methamphetamine Awareness Day.

There is no cause for alarm - the cupcakes to which I referred were prepared in an Atkins-friendly manner using Splenda and soy flour.

Meth is one thing, unwanted carbs are another.

Smoke up kids

In observance of November 30, National Methamphetamine Awareness Day, I have just completed a 27 hour rally session of methamphetamine consumption.

-Meth cupcakes with vanilla frosting
-Aerogel/solidified meth smoke, deposited on a metal plate cooled by liquid nitrogen and then applied liberally to the scalp
-Meth breath mints (Methos?)
-Methampehtiminated, carbonated soda
-Roast turkey stuffed with meth rocks and herbs

I have to say, I feel no effects of any kind.
I wish the whiny babies in the media would stop fabricating these lies about harmless children's medications and start posting the paper tube that I had on my head when the Germans ruled the place and he starts keeping the damn trains running all around the passbook, or bank account thing, you know the one. I had that where I was 7 and I never could remember my baptism nor the monies I received.

Tired Super-ninny Projects

I would like to announce the creation of a new domain...
www.fakeenthusiasm.com
I have found that when dealing with companies, many of their ideas and products are tired and lame. They are, none the less, very excited about them.

Client
"Boy, I can't wait to roll out that 3D visualization of our tradeshow booth display for those hinges we make!"

Me
"Yeah, that'll be great.(?) We'll be able to see, in full 3D animation, a tradeshow booth that you will use to promote the possible sale of hinges."

I'm hoping that this new domain, although lacking a website, will help express the longing of the common man to be involved with something...someday...that is actually important.

"Hey guys! Let's expand the Bill of Rights to include shelter, food, water, transportation, education, and medical care as state-provided basic rights.
Oh yeah, and let's mandate child-rearing prerequisites and training."

Something like that.

My enthusiasm for previsualization of dog food sales displays is waning.

I do frequently cut and run when presented with a losing scenario though.
That's called cutting your losses.

Speedy Mercury

Apparently the planet Mercury will transit the sun on my 39th birthday - Wednesday November 8th.
Mercury is the god of what again?

According to my court astrologer this means that I will go on a business trip and steal thermometers.

Always a bad idea

Diversity training today

I arrive in my "Kill God and let 'em all sort it out" t-shirt and suggest that diversity is a two way street - let's try popularizing Ramadan by making it more like Easter. I suggest little chocolate Korans. I point out that eating one's God in a purely abstract sense has generated lots of revenue for the Catholics.

I'm hoping things go better at Sexual Harassment training.
I can see my next review..

Alarming Trends

Although I have lost 38 pounds, recent analysis indicates that my keys will weigh more than me by the year 2100. At that time, flood water from global warming will cover most of the continental land masses - clearly a bad time to be weighed down with hundreds of pounds of metal keys.

I currently have more than a dozen keys, a small fraction of my overall weight.

What a present!

Sadly I can no longer blame my lack of professional success on my previous employer Paisley the ferret. She has died.

Geeks only - not funny

I just built a new computer and am quite surprised at how things have changed.

New processor - Intel back in business
First of all, the new Core 2 Duo processors from Intel (also called "Conroes") are simply so fast and can handle so much overclocking in addition, that there is simply nothing left that I can imagine anyone even wanting anymore. If for some reason you can't part with the $700-$1000 needed to get a real system like this you can bet your ass that the old ones, no matter how great they were, will soon be getting blown out for crazy cheap prices. AMD-based systems with Athlon 64's are now basically door stops, as are the old Pentium dual core machines.

Mid-range prices are up
It seemed there for a while that things would never again see the big performance leaps we expect in technology. For years we crept along with little improvements in clock speeds. Well, the clock speeds are all the same still (2 to 3 gigahertz) but the performance is off the damn scale. The system I just built has the exact same clock speed as my 3-year old system but is easily 4 times faster. There was a time when $100 CPUs reigned...along with $70 motherboards and $50 a gigabyte memory. They were a bit slower than the thousand dollar systems, but only idiots payed out the ass for the latest CPU. It looks like that has changed a bit now too. The new CPUs, motherboards, and DDR-2 memory are often double the prices we've come to expect and might stay that way for some time. Cheap systems (<$700) are now crappy systems. A cheap system today will be 4-6 times slower than the mid-range ($700-$1000) system. The premium systems are still not worth it but the free ride is over. The mid-range systems are now the sweet spot.

Overclocking is worth it again
For a while the business of pushing your computer beyond it's normal limits seemed like a waste of time and lots of money. Nitwits would water cool and nitrogen cool their "rigs" to get 25% more performance for hundreds of dollars. Screw that shit!
Now you can get a simple massive air cooler for $70 and squeeze out huge results. Just like with those sweet Celerons (anyone?) you can just turn up the speed dial and get a machine that's 50% faster or more...it pays.
My new system is running at a 40% overclock and I've just been tweaking it with minimal effort.

Who cares?
I don't know. Maybe we don't need faster computers.
Here are the only justifications I can think of:
Content creation (3D, digital video)
Games
High-definition video playback
Science
If you like Microsoft Office and Powerpoint and just use email and web browsing all day - good news! You can pick up a previous generation dinosaur that will be screaming fast for those rudimentary programs for next to nothing. Or just ignore the whole thing and wait for your current machine to crap out. You don't give a shit anyway so stop wasting my time. Oh, wait, I'm wasting your time.

No more anything, ever!

Damn you terrorists!
I had to throw out all my explosive beverages!

It's obvious that we need to ban everything, immediately!
What about colon-based explosive-liquid-filled condom IEDs triggered by a digital watch? Anything is possible, right? So let's live in fear and pass insane restrictions.

I say we drug and thoroughly detonate passengers during luggage check-in and then confiscate all surviving iPods, laptops, beverages, shampoo, nail files, pens and pencils and open a nifty duty-free shop to fund the war on terrorism.

We keep going after the tools of terrorism and ignoring the cause - our constant ass-fucking of insane hyper-religious cultures.

EVERYTHING is a terrorist tool! Anyone ever watch Mythbusters? MacGuyver?
But hey, if it saves one life.
I say fuck 'em! Sell fully automatic weapons, hardcore porn, and smack right off the goddamn beverage cart, at least we'll be free. And that way any potential terrorists will have a horny bunch of dope-addled, heavily-armed 'Minuteman' passengers to contend with.

I'm losing it.

Sorry for my lack of updates

I haven't updated nor apologized for my lack of updates in far too long.
Follow me?

OK, pay attention this time.
A. I update too infrequently
B. I do not apologize for this often enough

There WAS that one yesterday.
And this one.
I'm still sorry though.
I'm so busy lately.

Atkins Prison

Johnny Cash came to me in a dream and lo he sang.

[To the tune of Folsom Prison]

When I was just a baby
My momma told me son
Always be a good boy use your Fritos
Don't ever play with guns
But I shot a man in Reno with Fritos
Just to watch him die

This is REALLY what happened to me last night.

10 pounds gone

I have lost one "Marvin" in weight.

Atkins! Hope it doesn't kill me before it saves my life.
An eighth of a ton...I blame society.
Of which I am a member.
If you get my point.

The Lady on the Night Table

I found a half-inch copper torch on my bedside table.

Conclusion: nocturnal visitations by tiny Statues of Liberty.

Oh yeah, the Korean missile crisis

So North Korea has an ICBM it wants to test fire out over the Pacific.
Maybe it can reach the US.
Hey, no warhead on it, but still.
So El Presidente and his advisors are thinking maybe blow it up on the launchpad with a sub-launched cruise missile.
Anyone heard this?
Why is there NOTHING on the news?
They talk about the missile but no one is mentioning how we're likely to put the remote control boom-boom on the joint.
It might make the North Koreans or Chinese or South Koreans or Japanese and/or all humans somewhat nervous to hear about such a development.
I hope the World Cup is getting enough coverage.
"Zero to zero after an hour and a half of play."

My one superpower, based on my weight, is that I can properly crush any box for recycling. Maximum - 3 feet by 3 feet.
This is the redeeming characteristic I'm expecting will get me into heaven.

Healthy competition

Countering recent price cuts by competitor Intel, AMD announced today it's new octuple-core processor architecture codenamed "Fejaslee Blowfane"
(fedge-uh-slee blow-fane)
In a press release, AMD stated that "This will assure we remain the vanguard of codenaming for the next several years."

New job keeping kids from hanging out in front of the drug store

This community college is sweet - crazy benefits, small department full of nutty intellectuals, casual clothes, nice office, speedy commute, non-harmful organization, lots of cool tech.
It's slow right now because it's summer so I'll have time to learn all their systems before major courses start in the fall. I hope I can groove here for a long time.

Thank you for your silence

When I inserted the Q-tip in my ear and said,
"It's just a habit.
I don't know why I do this.
There's nothing in there."
thank you for not saying anything.

Hissing

Why is this cat hissing at me?

Burping it doesn't seem to have helped any.

Jane Austen-tatious!

I'm considering writing a series of Jane Austen sequels in the form of classic arcade games. No, not really.
As Austen knew though, it's all about choosing a good title.
Sense and Sensibility
Pride and Prejudice
Like that.

The phonetic start of the words must be the same but they must not share a common meaning or base word. Also, it's good to have them be based on a unifying concept.

Crab fishermen in the Bering Strait
= Pinheads and Pincers

Stealing the fruit basket from an unconscious patient
= Hospital and Hospitality

It's fun kids, make your own!
A-to-Z! I'll get you started...
Ass and Aspirin
Bassinets and Basketballs
Condoms and Condiments

Having never read Jane Austen, nor seen any of the dreadful movies, I have no educated commentary other than to mock the titles of her books.
I would be a real bastard if I didn't give credit to http://austentatious.blogspot.com/, a real Jane Austen blog that isn't that funny but perhaps will tell you something about Jane Austen.

Keeping Connecticut more smarter

I have secured a position with the state at a community college as a Media Information Technology Innovation Associate of Something. My duties will encompass changing the urinal cakes and keeping greasy fingerprints off the glass doors in the Student Center.
My current superior, Paisley the ferret, is upset that I will be leaving my post here at home but I have given her 3 pieces of peanut butter cereal and I think she feels better now. I feel that she has been holding me back from achieving my full potential. I am over 200 times heavier and at least 1.5 times smarter than her and have always been uncomfortable calling her "boss" despite her formidable claws and teeth.
My colleagues, Sam and Marvin the cats, are holding a week-long going away bash for me. By "going away bash" they apparently mean sleeping in front of the windows and basking in the sun until drool pools around their heads. "When in Rome"...am I right?

Seriously, I wasn't cut out for crushing poverty and living with animals. I send my profound thanks to the nice folks at the college and look forward to sharing the skills I've developed as a freelancer...sleeping until 3:00PM and making a big mess.

Rent is killing me

"Rent" the movie.

Ready!
Aim!
SING!

Now I need to blow the insipid songs out of my head with a fucking bullet.

If you can't stand La Boheme for 4 hours what you need is 2 hours of this shit.
I'd rather see La Boheme on a non-stop roller coaster for 3 months with my underpants full of steel wool and drill bits.

Ghost nitwits

An American Haunting - When your daughter is the victim of a violent poltergeist I think it's been shown that the best thing to do is SOMETHING.

"Every night she's hanging by her hair, getting speed-slapped by demons, the windows explode, she gets ghost-raped, and then we can't get into her room.
It's crazy...for like a month now.
Still, I tuck her in and hope for the best.
Oh and my husband is being killed by demons also..coughing up blood all night...what a mess. I sure hope they stop. More tea?"

Idiots!

Hell on Earth

Wow, I lasted one day. 11PM-8AM...by 3AM I felt like literally throwing up. These companies are barely sub-infinite tangles of servers, OSes, mainframes, proprietary command-lines and hundred of terabytes of files.
What the hell?! - a tape backup system with 400 80GB cartidges? 32,000 gigabytes in just ONE data center. These companies aren't building nuclear weapons or simulating black holes, it's just fucking paperwork! They don't produce ANYTHING!

And the environment - windowless, open floorplan, squeeky loud ventilation, fluorescent lights, no breaks, no lunch, and I'm 3 locked doors away from a speedy escape. I'd compare it to something out of 'Brazil' but it was so much worse.
Christ, humans were not meant to work in those environments and at those hours. That place was unfit for a planaria, much less an attractive upper mammal like myself.

'Don't ever work for an insurance company' seems to be the lesson I've learned in my first 40 years.
Onward and upward I guess.

Easter Races

Top-fuel, alcohol-burning, nitrous-blown, funny car, all-Jesus drag race the wrong way down I-95!

Full-time reaping

Next week I start my horrid, third-shift, vaguely-defined, IT drudgery job for the innovative and exciting startup Traveller's insurance.
11:30PM to 8:00AM, that leaves plenty of time for..
Friends?
Family?
Movies?
Shopping?

I'm praying for tripods.

Incomepoop

This is just to notify the federal government that I will be expecting all that money I gave you back this year. I don't mean to be a dick about it, but I think we need to settle up. If you need to take the interstate highway out of my back yard I will understand. I won't need it anymore since I can no longer afford a car or insurance. Also...any foreign invaders? Yeah, I'll take the hit if they come knocking.
The Japanese attacked our fleet once but they look too busy figuring out how to medicate themselves properly to bother with that again anytime soon. Speaking of which, I also want healthcare.
Thanks for being there for me,

Messages from my computer

My computer just alerted me to the following, no joke...

That was its way of telling me that the volume called "The Incredibles HD" was verified. It apparently ran out of letters.
