Kellie was showing me some anti-Bush sites today when I first saw this masterpiece. The folks involved seem to have gone to a lot of trouble to take actual clips of Rush Limbaugh’s voice and arrange them to music in such a way that for the first time in his career, he tells the [...]

Dumb browsers
In Microsoft Knowledge Base Article 833786, the hard-working folks at Microsoft have a solution for the recent security problems with Internet Explorer. Because websites can easily spoof the status bar and location bar in IE to make it look like you’re at a trusted site, Microsoft recommends the following process:
The most effective step [...]

On a long enough timeline
The nice thing about forever is that eventually everything happens. This also happens to be the downside.
But for now, the good side: Jay has posted what is quite possibly the first hip-hop song about blogging. Jay calls out Jessica, and creates what he calls "A (Sad) New Chapter in Blog History." I [...]
Mostly good, darnit
Well, that’s disappointing. But, you can’t argue with Gematria, so I’m going to have to accept some amount of holiness in this blog. All I can really hope for is that I develop some sinister writing style in the near future.
For those not in the know, Gematria is the numerological system [...]
They noticed me, they really noticed me
Just as my Google ranking gets ready to slip, the good people at XFN added me to their list of people using XFN. I didn’t ask or anything. As a matter of fact, I posted a satirical response to their proposal, which doesn’t usually engender such a nice response.

Disturbing things
First of all, this post at the Kiosk has left me speechless. I wish that I could defend the actions of the pilots, or even condemn them fully. I don’t have enough video to guess what the Iraqis were up to, nor do I have any background on the pilots. I do [...]
Never mind
All that stuff I posted about using comments to help your PageRank? Never mind. The fine people at MovableType have come up with a solution for comment spam that is so effective that it kills my idea as well.
See, the reason that comment spammers do the things they do is that by linking from your [...]
Normal weekend activities
So, another weekend, another couple of redesigns. This time, I gave this site a complete overhaul and designed another, yet-to-be-announced site. I used Dan Benjamin’s Image Rotator for the banner image at the top, which means that even if the content goes stale, you can hit
reload a few dozen times to amuse yourself. [...]
Four years ago
Four years ago, right now, I was asleep.
I mean that literally, as it’s now 2 in the morning and I’m only awake because of an allergy attack.
But I also mean that figuratively. I had been married for about a year, and was still getting adjusted to being a husband and step-father. And both [...]
