Patron Saint of the Nerds
St. Expedite is apparently the Patron Saint of the Nerds. Pretty funny story.
Election Dejection
I definitely know a few people who are suffereing from election dejection. Besides this NY Daily News article, there was a piece on NPR last week, plus today’s Opus comic touched on this subject too. I like Opus’ solution: peaches! (I’d link to the strip, but it appears that the Opus strip is not available online. Strange.) Most of the people with this problem are too young to remember Reagan.
The Hypo-Allergenic Cat
Hey, I can get a Hypo-Allergenic Cat now! Well, OK, not now. Maybe 2007.
NPR : Kaiju Big Battel: Wrestling Meets Godzilla
There’s a nice bit on Kaiju Big Battel on the NPR web site.
Weird Al
I’m going to see Weird Al on Sunday at the Arts Center! Woo hoo!
David Hasselhoff
Very strange David Hasselhoff news:
Yahoo! News – Hasselhoff Tagged for DUI — besides the DUI thing, the article also mentions that he’s working on a rap album. I must call Mike Pajaro and ask him about this..
Fire
A power line came down on our front lawn today at work. It made a nice little fire, and scorched the heck out of a good size patch of grass. And of course it left us mostly without power for about half the day. I had a lot of fun trying to hook up computers to the AC outlets that were still working, so we could get some critical payroll stuff done.
The best part, though, was when one of the PSE&G guys had to take a leak, and decided to do that right on the side of his truck, in full view of anyone who might have been looking in his direction. And a lot of people were, since they were looking out the windows gawking at the fire.
DDR Workout
I have to admit, I’m considering The DDR Workout. Aside from all the DDR stuff, there are some good comments in this story about exercise, nutrition, and weight loss in general.
