Hm, no payment on my ad-links for the last month… I suppose I’ll take ’em down if I don’t see anything by the first week of September.

Heard from Magda last night and it was quite nice… but all too brief. She’s going to Costa Rica for a week or two, and then back to Colombia, and then back to Fort Lauderdale.

A pretty funny trailer for a hillbilly Kung-Fu zombie movie which does not yet exist, presumably only because Billy Bob Thorton has yet to get wind of it.

Abednego

Meaning: servant of Nego = Nebo.

This was the Chaldee name given to Azariah, one of Daniel’s three companions (Dan. 2:49). With Shadrach and Meshach, he was delivered from the burning fiery furnace (3:12-30).

Looked it up, after hearing a man name his dog that. Pretty nifty name.

Greasemap is a “user script” for Greasemonkey, which is a plugin framework for Firefox. It augments any web page you visit by searching the page for geocodeable addresses or other geotags. If it finds any, it automatically shows all such locations on a Google Map which is injected into the page you are viewing, within an iframe from Vinq.com. (thanks to chris::wired for the tidbit!)

Works great with my journal page.

Ducktales song in another language sounds more like anti-circumcision propaganda and other lechery. ( http://uncutohh.ytmnd.com/ )

embedded audio works best in msie (mp3 to play with the pic, if embedded sound doesn’t work)

Added “Briefcase full of Blues” to my mp3 player. The late 1970s going on 1985. Hard to believe there’s a 25th anniversary dvd of the movie coming out this month.

Saw a Goth girl in some kind of secret ID, bright yellow sundress. Stark contrast against blacker-than-black hair and heavy eyeliner. Still, quite a cutie.

This country needs more cowbell. Walken 2008.

Heard from lisa^2 in Texas on while on walkabout downtown. they sound very rambunctious, and fun on the road.

I totally agree with Dane Cook about people wearing t-shirts with the Superman emblem.

7639 – Thank you, Lisa2!! (Electric Boogaloo)

Leave a comment

Lisa2, (or Weez & Sedef) sent me a lovely strawberry shortcake glitter night light (red, of course, with strawberry shaped foil bits to spin around). It’s awesome, and matches my blue glitter lava lamp perfectly. Hmm, I guess in proper sense, it would be 2(Lisa)?

It totally made my day, and I was needing a pick-me-up! In the dark, it sends off a very warm glow, compared to the cool light of the blue, too.

Thank you so much!! (Pink in honor of you both, and Strawberry Shortcake.)

I still think Holly Hobbie could totally take Miss Shortcake in a fight, but SS does have a nice scent about her.

2784 is my new score at that rotating snake game thingum. I may steal it to host in the toybox.

7633 – countdown to the weekend

Leave a comment

Friday Five. (swiped from eryx_uk )

5. Did you follow NASA’s latest space mission?
Only the audioblog of one of the astronauts and a lot of the pretty pictures. I didn’t follow it too deeply. I got a sense of false drama about the recovery window, which was a little pesky.

4. If you could launch a politician into space, and perhaps they wouldn’t make it back, who would it be?

Can’t we put ’em all on a big space ark? If I had to pick one, I’d go bakc in time, and put GWB senior on one before current prez was concieved.

3. Do you believe in an after-life?

I think it’s pretty unlikely, but it’s a nice thought. I also have severe doubts about ghosts, angels and reincarnation.

2. If there really are aliens, what do you think they look like?
Hopefully some form that allows them to communicate with us, and makes it easy for us to use alien technology. (No doubt when they come to enslave us/eat us/ want to make “friends” with our children/ etc, we’ll need to turn them against themselves, because I doubt a computer virus from a powerbook or avian flu will do the job.)

1. Have you ever been to Europe?
Yupperdoodle! Germany and Spain are nifty, but I’d probably like to visit Scotland next go ’round.

7632 – Who knows the secret of the Delirium box?

Leave a comment

Minor case of instant karma last night at the ‘mat. I saw someone leave without her drivers license and credit card, and I brought ’em to her as she was pulling out of the parking lot. She kindly insisted on giving me a fiver to cover the cost of doing the laundry. Presto!

I also gave a homeless guy a pack of matches when he asked if I had a lighter. I carry matches with me all the time now, even if I don’t smoke… I’m not sure when I picked that quirk up, but people always seem to think that I’m a smoker… plus, you never know when you’re going to need fire.

This little chain reaction game thing is far too hypnotic than it should be. 1052 is my current best.
