So yeah, I'm basically reading four books at the same time right now: X-Rated Bloodsuckers, Mario Acevedo Made to be Broken (Nadia Stafford, book two), Kelley Armstrong Naked Heat, Richard Castle Dead and Gone, Charlaine Harris BTW, that was fucking awesome.

Beer is good. Having one of the last of my Ten Fidy's. Sent from mah Droid

I think subconsciously I recognized that, and what you're seeing in my post is just a delayed reaction.

Underworld, Barking -- fucking groovy.

Alright you guys, quit getting distracted by that comment -- it was meant completely sarcastically, I can't imagine Bernard americanized in any way. I took it back in the same post. Kind of like, "I'd love to see a Singlepower / RSA collaboration. Wait, no I wouldn't." or "I'd give my left nut to have a voice like James Earl Jones. Wait, no I wouldn't." Please go back to shamelessly falling for the hype.

Dude, it's the era. Before Gilligan's Island, people associated that hat with...I don't know, palm beaches, tennis, golf, etc. EDIT: Um...he's some kind of famous non-doofy director or actor or something, isn't he? @ self.

Can be good, but he's stuck with the material. Let's put it this way, I was completely underwhelmed by the ad that I keep seeing in the theater. They're trying to hype it up, but that doesn't make it a good show.

Plot -- is there one? Sounds like a sitcom to me. I'd like to see an American version of Spaced or Black Books. Wait, no I wouldn't. Unless it included gunfire. Or knives. Or shovels.

What about those $179 iPods?

If it was just the openings, I'd say get omnis and turn it up. But you got all that window real estate. Fuck it. Get bookshelves.

Spheric Universe Experience, Unreal -- prog metal goodness.

Dusty approves of the color scheme. But I'm more interested in the Gallos.

Argh! That sucks. Fortunately, I get one more out of them (according to the article), so I may be alright.

I had Unibroue's Terrible last night -- I think they're underselling themselves, because it's actually not bad. Unless they were going for hoppy, because it was malty malty malty. Yes, I tasted a little bit of hoppy, but did I mention malty? Because it completely overpowered the hoppy, and not in a "complex" way. Dude, you need to start taking everything I like, and use it as "opposite" advice -- Ghost in the Shell: Innocence, beers, pussy/dick -- we just don't agree on anything.

Now me too. (Free streaming from SoundCloud.) EDIT: "A Flat Tent" is stupendous.

Happy Birthday!

Have you tried the Two-Hearted?

I see what you did there. And:

I think that should be in their wiki page:

Yes, it was at least entertaining. But, dude, make sure your suspension of disbelief powers are not depleted, there are several WTF moments. Also, Summer Glau gets some of the goofiest lines, so ... well, let's just say I'm glad they stuck her in a short dress in ep. 2.

Good luck with that. Around here, that just gives them more resources to brick-&-mortar our driveway shut. Not looking forward to going home tonight, they've probably blocked off the driveway with what little they could gather, just enough to snag a brake line on my way over it, should I try to do so.

It is if they're not going to support the old versions that worked on the old hardware (and yes, this from a software developer). I do agree that they should write "natively" if they can (I.E. if they can take advantage of the latest and greatest operating system calls/CPU instruction sets/etc., then yes, reward the people who have the latest and greatest hardware and software with these abilities. But if you've been working with Cakewalk version 2 or whatever, it's kind of dismaying to know that that bug you reported in 1979 isn't ever going to get fixed. (Not that you shouldn't have figured that out by now.) I mean, c'mon, musicians are poor (for the most part).

Also the new Cake.

Not enough to shovel here, but I'm really glad it warmed up enough to get rid of that layer of ice on the bottom. I agree with Justin -- this...whatever it is that we got last night sucks.
