  • Core Incompetency

    In lieu of actual content, I give you a link to Insultingly Stupid Movie Physics’ review of The Core.

    Why? Because it’s fun reading, dammit! And because I have absolutely nothing original to contribute right now. (Must… finish… watching… Rah… Xephon…)

  • Breakfast, Breakfast and Breakfast

    Let me describe a nearly perfect dining day to you.

    Morning: Bowl of chocolatey cold cereal, such as Cocoa Puffs. (This is the “nearly” perfect part. Ordinarily I’d prefer a hot cereal, like cream o’ wheat, with milk and brown sugar. Yum!)

    Lunchtime: Three-egg bacon and cheese omelette, with hash browns on the side and a couple slices of toast with jam. (Sometimes I’ll have ham instead of bacon. Cheese, however, is non-optional!)

    Dinner: French toast with butter, peanut butter and maple syrup. (Bacon and/or sausage links on the side make it that much more perfecter!)

    I’ll grant you that a dietician would heartily (pun intended) disagree with this sort of menu. What can I say? I’m all about the comfort foods and there’s nothing more comforting than a nice breakfast.

    Thanks to Lyse for treating me to a nifty lunch, and thanks to Wendi for having the bright idea of dining on french toast this evening. Mmmmm.

  • Almost done with AS/400 stuff.

    After putting in 57 hours of work last week, today I only added eight more. Everything went smoothly and faster than expected.

    No, really, that’s all I have to say. That, and I’m ever so glad I go on vacation Thursday…

  • Rude Food, Dude

    Via… a series of links I can’t even recall now, I bring you naughty food.

    While you’re there, check out some of the other amusing portions of the site, especially the pranks

  • Past, Present, Future – Round Thirty

    PAST: Even the poorest of us had a few toys, growing up. Which was your favorite?

    PRESENT: Constructive playtime is still a valuable thing for us adult-like personages. What do you play with when you need to cheer up?

    FUTURE: Setting aside, as we tend often to do here, the established laws of physics, probability, supply-and-demand and common sense… if you could create a fantastical toy, what would it be like? (This can be for children and/or adults, in case you’re wondering.)

    Leave a comment with your answers or a link thereto; if you link back here (and we hope you do!) please use the following, which will always point to the latest PPF:

  • GreyDuck’s Anime Site

    After more than a year of inactivity, a few days of agonizing and a couple more days of tinkering… my newest web project is alive and kicking.

    Allow me to present… GreyDuck’s Anime Site. (If you have a better name suggestion, I’m all ears.) For the time being it’ll be mostly reviews and opinions, but eventually I’ll be posting such tidbits as my AMVs and any anime-related desktop wallpapers I may come up with. (You can find my Washuu wallpaper on my DeviantArt page, by the way.)

    In other words, it’s just another geeky anime fanboy page. Enjoy, if you’re into that sort of thing.
