Where Tuesday Went

Heh. Styrofoam peanuts.

“It’s like they took a bit of a movie, put it in a box and filled the rest of the box with styrofoam peanuts. This scene, for instance, is a styrofoam peanut.” – Mystery Science Theater 3000, The Screaming Skull


And no, that quote probably isn’t exact. I’ll redact this post later, maybe, once I’ve got the wording straight. Anyway, on with the day’s events:

  • Department Head meetings are now on Tuesdays. Still at 8:00 in the bloody damned morning, though. Needless to say I got up too bloody damned early today. Oh yeah, and the Summer 2002 ratings were released today. This is information only interesting to other radio people, I’m afraid.
  • Mari wants a weblog/journal/thing. I’ve set one up for her, but you can’t see it yet. We’re waiting for DNS to get set up, then I’ll make some sort of big announcement. For the record, it’s running Movable Type. MT’s neat and all, but I don’t see myself switching this site any time soon. I’ve got far too much time and effort invested in Monaural Jerk, which I still think is a better system for techies like myself.
  • In related news, I now know how to enable those Trackback things you’ve probably seen popping up all over the blogosphere. They’ll probably appear as if by magic at some point in the next couple of days on a greyduck.net near you. Stay tuned.
  • A diet consisting solely of hot cocoa and Ritz crackers, coupled with sleep deprivation. This is the answer to the question, “Why are you so incoherent this evening, Karel?” Now stop asking me silly questions.
  • This is damned funny. Note to self, add The People’s Republic of Seabrook to the Blogs of Note…
  • Last and probably least, I spent a part of the day poking around on DeviantArt. I even posted a journal entry on my profile. Mostly, though, I was there to grab a bunch of cool new anime wallpapers. If you ask nicely, I’ll show them to you.
