Business Travel Sucks
Published 13 December 7 1:9 AM | William
I don't remember the details exactly, but at some point in my very early childhood, me and the folks were flying to Pittsburgh for the holidays. I remember pop being really adamant about "flying 1st class so we don't have to put up with all...
How *not* to pick up chicks
Published 29 November 7 12:37 PM | William
Obviously these aren't being used in the field , at least I hope not. If they are being used in the field, I'm pretty sure their efficacy leaves something to be desired.

Uhhh, you're kidding right?

I know some men that pretty much refuse to buy feminine products for their significant others b/c they can't take the embarrassment. Personally, I always wondered a little about them b/c it seems you really have to feel shaky in your manhood to let...

Sahil and I have been friends for a long time since then, but to this day, he's yet to give me the Cobra, Turbin and Flute that I've been hitting him up for. Yes, I'm still salty about it. Well, I just saw this piece on how bad a55 Dingos...

Fighting the Bull
Published 7 September 7 10:15 AM | William
A few years ago, I read a truly excellent book called Why Business People Speak Like Idiots: A Bullfighter's Guide . I really liked it b/c I was working at a place with a whole lot of people who were really into talking in business speak and thought...
JesOS (TM) The First True Christian (TM) Operating System
Published 4 September 7 3:9 AM | William
I'm probably going to hell for even reading this, let alone posting a link to it. Atheists/Agnostics and Christians that can laugh at some of the less desirable aspects of their faith will get a good chuckle out of it. If you are of the persuasion...
Man bites dog
Published 3 September 7 6:16 PM | William
A few of these clips are definitely NSFW b/c of the language. In fact, more than a few are. But if you look at some of Jimmy Justice's video , you'll probably laugh your butt off. Basically, he's a citizen vigilante who goes around and photographs...

Passenger's bill of duties
Published 9 August 7 10:39 AM | William
Athough it's been relatively slow in the past few months, I typically have to engage in a good bit of air travel and it seems that many developers/consultants I know are in the same boat.. TSA and similar concerns have made air travel more frustrating...

Pimpology vs Harry Potter

On Fridays, Kim and I typically go to P.F. Changs for dinner and then go to Barnes and Noble to and go book shopping. Tonight everything was going well, and after dinner we walked across the street to B & N. At some point, I started having flashbacks...

I got this from Brian's - it's been around a while but always interesting to re-check. My blog is worth $10,161.72 . How much is your blog worth? Looks like i better keep my day job...
Programmers do actually make suckier interfaces than other people
Published 5 February 7 1:56 AM | William
Aaron's post asserts that programmers aren't to blame for crappy UIs and I'm not sure he's right about that point. As a programmer and software user, I have to say that most of the truly terrible user interfaces I've seen in my life were not the result...
C Ya at the LARP
Published 1 February 7 11:28 AM | William
One of the new things I started doing in the mornings was going to the Gym. I live a few blocks away from a LA Fitness that opens up at 5:00 AM. So if possible, I try to get over there at 5:00, work out, do my morning routine and head to work. As I was...

Unpimp your ride
Published 28 January 7 10:52 PM | William
Although I love Pimp your ride, I personally don't like bling on vehicles much. I mean, what looks dumber than a totally tricked out Geo Metro right? Well, come to think of it, it's a lot worse when the car is actually nice. Unpimp your ride

The AngryPharmacist and the Drug Monkey
Published 28 January 7 10:7 PM | William
Every day we go about out lives and we interact with people who we probably don't even think twice about. Many of us interact with pharmacists and never think twice about it, or what they think of us. I know mr 375lb bench press aka 'the lower cased one...

    Please note that this is my personal blog and the opinions expressed are my own. Also, comment moderation is about one of the least important things in my life so please keep that in mind. I can't vouch for the authenticity of any of the posters so please don't hold me accountable. And whatever you do, don't pretend to be Noted Option Strict Off expert and AspFriend Charles Mark Carroll when you post. Doing so will lead him to become apoplectic and write absurd accusatory posts about me that are as coherent and thought out as they are factually correct. He does a stellar job proving his reputation is well deserved and he doesn't need any help from you making himself look foolish. If I have to listen to him banging his spoon off of his high chair one more time, I'm going to burst into flames so please don't make that happen!
