I’m a color most men can’t even see
(Memesteal from mephistakitten. Real entries coming soon, I promise! Big nasty BRAKE work-project finished up tonight, so my calendar is finally starting to look slacker-riffic for a little while. (we hope…) ) you are paleturquoise#AFEEEE Your dominant hues are green and blue. You’re smart and you know it, and want to use your power to…

…does this count as humor, or not?
One of the guys on the camerahacking.com forum pointed this out: Google’s top result for the search query "failure"

Attack of the evil puffballs…?
Really! I don’t dream this much. Maybe it has to do with my messed-up (lack of) sleep schedule lately. Anyway… The part I remember was of entering an ordinary living room (no living room I recognized) containing, among various other usual living-room furniture, an old B/W console TV set with the big clicky channel-changer knobs…

I vow never to fly Northwest Airlines again.
All right, I’m doing this evil out-of-order blogging thing because I’ve been too busy to actually write stuff here (starting with Chicago trip of um…several weeks ago, still not mentioned), but right now I’m pissed off and need to vent my spleen. I don’t get pissed off very often. NORTHWEST AIRLINES … are a bunch…

Videogames from vending machines…I see a business model here
Wierd, a dream that could, possibly, have been in linear time! Anyway, it starts out that myself and someone are walking down a downtown city street somewhere that is defined to be NYC (how do I know this? I don’t know…there aren’t any where-am-I cues around), and see a video game store. The window signage…

Well, today my BRAKE boards finally came in. No Zoran COACH chips, and no footprints carefully sawed off of them (in the world where I’m NOT a Viking), but I didn’t even have them all the way out of their little Fedex box when I noticed the first fuckup. All my text on the top…

Wierd, dreaming
I don’t write about dreams much, because I don’t have them very much. Or at least don’t remember them very much. And way too often, I probably shouldn’t share them with the public anyway. But anyway, here’s what I remember of the one from last* night…it was wierd, because there was actual dialog in it,…

Chicago roadtrip
Wow…I think this is the longest time interval between doing stuff and writing about it, ever… anyway, as always, datestamp refers to the date stuff happened, not the date I wrote about it. In the beginning… J.R. came along for the ‘there’ trip, and kept me from falling asleep at the wheel with loud music…

for(seconds($$1 in $1))
Heh…I can hardly even concentrate on work right now, thinking about going *sproing* out of here at 5:00:00’00” for the roadtrip to Chicagoland. With car stereo hacked for iPod/iRiver/Nomad input (Pioneer…add-on market protection by “funny plug” method) and the TrashAmp finally finished (ok…functional, but not pretty) at about 3am today, turning my trunk into an…

Can’t sleep….clown will eat me….
So I’m hacking on some stuff….actually re-hacking someone else’s much more elegant stuff into a form my archaic copy of Borland CPPB4 will tolerate. “‘FILE’ cannot start a parameter declaration” … hmm… it can in MSVC, apparently. I made the mistake of drinking a 20oz mtn dew at about midnight…there seems to be a strong…

More random quotes!
Either stumbled across, or from people I know…ya, I have this bad habit of saving them :-) “Heh well, technically the picture is always upside down since the light hits your eye, which inverts what is actually there. Its a cool aspect of evolution that has allowed us to align our perspective of the world…

VNV in Boston
These guys kick ass, what more needs to be said? All right, quotes from the last couple days…yaya, I’m a week late writing this anyway… “How about, we’ll find someplace shady and stop there, and you can put on sunscreen.” – me *laughter* – No* “I meant, a place not in direct sunlight…” – me…

Bitchslap!
Now that’s what I like to see. As reported by BusinessWeek, WSJ and a few other places, the malware vendor Hotbar has been sued by Symantec, apparently in response to receiving a nastygram from Hotbar’s lawyers demanding Symantec stop detecting their malware as… well, malware. Unfortunately this is a common theme in malware research (rather…

Chicago (waiting (failstating (masturbating in the grating (there was fuck-all else to do))))
One of the primary objectives in making a random trip back to my hometown was to get laid (lets just say I have a very satisfied customer in the area, and a friend who seems to want to become one), but that didn’t happen. Actually, a lot of the time was spent bumming rides (my…

I have looked in the mirror, and I am not sc4r3d
(To know things, beautiful, terrible things. Like a john to a desperate hooker with kids to feed, the things a handful of errant molecules can force us to think and do.) This is mostly here for my own personal documentation, not really to convey any information to the outside world. Sorry. Anyway, there were a…

A plan, a LAN, a pizza in a pan
Went to JR’s place Saturday for a geeky get together. Met some new interesting people (anyone who does Duct Tape art can’t be bad), and got in touch with some I haven’t seen recently. We made pizza from scratch, which turned out to be Damn Good, and way earlier on, an attempt at the world…

What the hell?
Poking around webstats like I do sometimes, I came across some dude on a site called WogLife, posting a picture of me as his self-portrait. Ya know, ‘cuz I’m a raging stud muffin and all. I’m not a wog! I think. What’s a wog?

Correlator broken
That sounds like a bad thing, but it’s a good thing.

Positive correlations; Things Coming Up and These Topics Two
Yeah yeah…I told myself, and the world by extension, when I started this thing that “I’m not doing that private entry crap.” But anyway, here is me doing that private entry crap. At least until I know whether I’m just correlating noise, seeing patterns where none exist, or being too right for my own good.
