Stay Tuned...

The split pea soup is a cookin' away downstairs in the kitchen.  I am planning on some nice pictures for you too, so expect it this afternoon sometime...

Something good might happen? Who knew that was even possible!

Remember, way back last May, my computer went all hippie on me and the screen went tie die?  And then it completely stopped working?  And then I got a new computer?  Well, it turns out that my problem and my model were on the list for a NVIDIA GPU litigation thing, so I filled out all the forms and sent a PDF of my order form from when I bought it (by the way, I love gmail and it's archives), and now we'll see what happens next! Supposedly they would repair my computer--so I guess I could load some sort of linux on it and start messing around with that.

Sunset

Not as red as it looked in real life, but there you go.

In other news it's -7 Fahrenheit here, with the windchill. Nippy, that. Still, nothing compared to my brother's college town in WY, where it is currently -36 with the windchill and projected to get down to -51 or something equally unearthly. All I can do is say--"Sucks to be you, dude!"

Da Man

Da name of da man is Freddiew. Who would have thought that a geeky looking guy from Sunny CA could make so many awesome videos? Here is his latest:



You really should watch them all.

KBAR TDI: The I completely forgot to finish edition

A post about criminals not following the campus disarmament policies over at Defends Her Own reminded me in a roundabout way that I completely forgot to finish talking about my knife. Remember, the belt clip broke maybe a week after I bought it? Well, I emailed KBAR and they right away sent me another one. Of course, it was on the slow boat from china (literally, I think, that's where it was mailed from) but it got here just the same. The new clip has a shiny finish as opposed to the matte finish that was on the first clip--I don't know why, but new one sure didn't have as much black oily gunk on it as the original one had, and seems to be holding up just fine. I usually only wear it when I'm going somewhere that guns aren't allowed, handle back on my left side (with the clip in, to try and prevent it from catching on anything and peeling off like happened with the first one. So far so good, I still quite like it and am happy with KBAR's customer support.

Quiz Question!

Can anyone tell me what other current hot topic(s) seem to use this reasoning, and with this amount of intelligence?



I'll give you a hint for one: it's a two letter phrase that starts with "G" and ends with "L" and has a "UN CONROL" in between them.

I usually call them "rights restrictors," they call themselves champions of safety, but in all cases they are bigots, and their reasoning always devolves to mindlessly repeating "GREATER GOOD... GREATER GOOD..."

I think I'm going to start calling them Double G Zombies.
