Cleanup time. I just deleted 80+ drafted entries from my post queue. I’m limiting myself to a certain number now, so I won’t have to waste 30 mins for another massive draft exodus. Here are some links that are important enough to be posted, but not too spectacular to warrant the [...]

I just watched Eat Drink Man Woman (or Yin shi nan nu) for the first time yesterday night. It wasn’t my first choice, but then again, I wanted to watch Encino Man. It turned out to be a wonderful film. I don’t think I can do this film’s summary any justice, so [...]

I checked my myspace.com profile on a lark this morning and I found THAT sitting in my testimonials box. I almost fell out of my chair laughing. Oh Jacqui. You look HAWT in that picture. Who knew the Internets could actually strengthen a friendship? And what the hell were you [...]

My buddy Dale sent me an invite to use Google Talk. Finally. An instant messaging service from the seemingly non-evil people from Google. If you need a GMail account (required to use Google Talk), ask your milkman. He/she prolly has 50,000,000 invites like everyone else in the world. If you [...]

Mr. Kevin Miller, my high school music teacher & personal hero, sent me a joke email yesterday. Sure, it didn’t say much, but it was nice to know he’s alive and well. Not only was it great to be included in an e-mail pool of music department heads of colleges and band teachers [...]

I had lunch with Tynia (one of my oldest friends) and her beau Vince yesterday afternoon. What lovely conversation. What an interesting pair. We shared a medium deep dish pizza from Gino’s East stuffed with 1/2 spinach and 1/2 sausage. It looked (and tasted) delicious.
We ordered it carry-out (Thanks [...]

I bought a DS like I said I would, but I’m not playing it right now. It’s not exactly in my possession. Why? Well, I kinda sorta had one imported from Japan. You see, they don’t sell the Pure White Edition in the states. That’s right Billy, I ignored the [...]

A lil’ bit of house keeping. The sidebar is getting a little crowded as of late with the addition of the Democracy Wordpress polls function that I attached a while back. I guess everyone loves a geek! Thank goodness, I was starting to get worried. There’s still hope for me us [...]

Memorizing one or two semi-fancy meals to make for someone at the drop of a hat makes for a good initial impression. Pasta dishes always work best, since ingredients are most likely to be readily available at any given time in anyone’s pantry.
Paralleling current relationships to old ones can cause severe & irreconcilable insecurities [...]

1 full hour of story arch ending and beginning syrup to satisfy your Anime needs. The ‘filler’ arch finished during the first 30 minutes (It was an hour long episode) and nothing really came of it. No attachment to the ‘master plan’, no real change in the Naruto-verse. But the second half [...]

Forget RC Road Racers. Those mini ground fx, engine upgrades and feeble skids bore me. Driving on the ground is soooooo passé. Personally, I need a lil’ lift in my life. Enter: The Butterfly.
