“Dude, like, is that credit card terminal on your desk?” To be a little more precise, it’s not, “like a credit card terminal” – it is one. Hand me your card, I’ll swipe it through, and we can take care of that $17 you owe me. Dude. “Oh baby you’re right, I’m wrong, I’m sorry, … More weirdness & widow control
First off, the design question again, [url=www.astrofish.net/index.html]splash page or [url=www.astrofish.net/intro.shtml]not? As the first thing a surfer-browser encounters when hitting the website, which is better? Onto meatier topics: I’ve been reading [url=http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0679728759/fishinguideto-20][i]Blood Meridian[/i] by [url=http://www.cormacmccarthy.com/]Cormac McCarthy. I have habit of reading with a pencil in hand. Usually, at least these days, with a cat asleep on … Weirdness
From an Austin [url=http://aprendizdetodo.com/chuckles/?item=20030804]writer, pictures from a meeting last month. Which lead me to a site, and there was a picture of myself. Looking like I always do, I guess. “Man, your scope for this week was so good, just as I biting into a cupcake, I read what you said for Gemini.” Yes, this … Surf’s up
Fans and flames. Did dinner with my [url=www.devota.org]sweet Pisces and she looked through the Pisces stuff. Funniest comment can’t be repeated, but it amounted to adding STFU, based on her experience with one sign. Don’t think that’ll make the cut. Unrelated, I did get on nice piece of mail, too. It cycled through Monday afternoon, … Fans and flames
Digging around in my folks garage, I was ostensibly trying to go through a few old boxes of textbooks, and cart that crap off, I came across a really old manuscript of mine. I recognized the artwork as images I had pointedly stolen from someplace else. But the text? Vintage me, through and through. Sarcastic. … From the really old files
Saturday morning used to be reserved for cartoons and cereal. Big bowls of some grain product liberally mixed with whole milk and coated with refined sugar. That’s the way I remember it. So I was channel surfing Saturday morning, and up pops the cartoon serial [url=http://pizzapower.tripod.com/origin.html]Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

More miles, more pictures. Many more pictures. I was worrying through the family’s network settings, going from machine to machine to “develop” the pictures I got on Thursday’s long drive, and what I finally did was slide that “film” into my own laptop. Idiot-proof computer? Sure. The Comet Drive-In, on historic Route 66, in Santa … More miles
Wow, some miles. Stay tuned, got some picks coming up. Going through security at Dallas Love Field, airline code – DAL, I got a chuckle out of one security guard as she read my t-shirt: Vegetarian, Indian Word for Lousy Hunter. Cattleman’s Steakhouse, Fabens, Texas. Sitting in the lounge area, waiting on the plane to … some miles
We’re Number One! Couldn’t pass this one up. Wednesday’s morning’s news included the statistic that Dallas has more crime than LA. Couple that Dallas is more dangerous than LA with the fact that Houston is dirtier than LA, and Texas, once again, emerges as a clear victor in the race for supremacy.
