Operation Retarded Title
The troops are doing their job, but what about the rest of us? I say it's time to launch Operation [Insert Retarded Title Here]. Our mission? To do our best to keep the peace at home – no matter where “home” happens to be. To help get you in the mood, I've uncovered this link [...]
If I Ran The Zoo
We just watched the Little People of America storm 16th with their chant: “Hell no – we won't grow!” They were followed shortly by the Bay Area League of Women Menstruators, who could be heard chanting: “Hell no – we won't flow!” Naturally, they were only copying the Crackheads of North America, who were screaming: [...]
Venting Plasma
I'm not really in a bad mood – I'm just blowing off steam. We've got morons up the wazoo crowding the streets of San Francisco to protest the war. It took me well over an hour to get to work this morning – when it normally takes ten minutes. I don't mind peaceful demonstrations – [...]
The Sniffle Shuffle
It's time to go through my TechTV inbox, shuffle past the spam, and answer a few burning questions. “Chris, why did you cut your hair like that?” I had no choice; it had been burned to a crisp with the bleaching / coloring process. I could either wear the mullet wig for a month or [...]
Sick and Sicker
I've been sick this past week, but that hasn't stopped me from testing applications for Lockergnome. In between trips to the toilet, I stumbled upon Huminity. I'd point you directly to its site, but I don't want you to install it. In fact, I want you to tell everybody on the PLANET not to install [...]
Fruity Terror
We are on Orange Alert.
Geeks Gone Bald
My illness appears to be passing, although I can still hear some amount of stuffiness when I speak. All should be well by tomorrow morning. I'll return to work, head held high – reflecting the lights above. Yep. I killed the fro. Didn't have much of a choice, mind you. I'm starting from scratch, and [...]
I See Geek People
I was looking for something a few minutes ago and… well, the results speak for themselves. Do a search for anything on Amazon.com – and they'll tell you where to find it. “See 'the finest breast' on Page 3 of the menu at Cafe Starbucks.” / “See 'my wife' on Page 53 of Things You [...]
Filled with Phlegm
I planned on spending most of the afternoon searching for open access points in my neighborhood. Mother nature decided to intervene; my sinuses have been draining down the back of my throat for the better part of two days, completely nullifying my sense of taste. I tried half a spoonful of wasabi, but the hit [...]
Gold?
Who is Jason Cain? Apparently someone who has: “the first website devoted to teaching moneymaking strategies to bloggers.” Excuse me? Have I been in the dark for the past year? Who is this guy? Is anybody taking him seriously? I'm not talking about GoldBlogger, I'm talking about GoldBlogger. Technorati shows only one inbound link / [...]
I'm Da Bomb Pop
So, my Web Producer (Rich Migliozzi) says that with my new hair colors, I look like a “Space Pop.” Excuse me? A what? “You know, a 'Rocket Pop.'” Oh, you mean a BOMB Pop. “A what?” I look like a Bomb Pop. Apparently, it must be a Midwest thing? We stick jimmies on our wangs [...]
Bouncing Baby Ryan
Congratulations to Mike and Stacey on the birth of their son, Ryan! Don't expect to hear too much cooing coming from the Pirillo household anytime soon, though. Other than the… *ahem* nevermind. Why not? (1) We hardly have enough time for ourselves, let alone another human being; (2) Ain't no way I'm raisin' a kid [...]
Sugar Haters
I just added a 'TrackBack' feature to this blog (just hover your mouse cursor over each number in the post's title to see which is which). Figured I'd launch it with a bang. Here's a shout-out to all you low-carbers out there – and you know who you are. Does everybody else know, though? If [...]
Blogrolling Pings
If you're using the Blogrolling service, you might wanna check out Jason's latest message: “The pinger is ready for beta testers! This beta is for MovableType users only at this point. In your 'Weblog Config' under 'Publicity / Remote Interfaces / TrackBack,' add in this in the text box.” What's this all about? Eventually, it'll [...]
Freaky Friday
For some reason, MT isn't allowing me to update my last post, so if you've got a mirror for my video, please add it via comment for “Mr. American Pie.” (which, if you're too lazy to figure out, is the post that is sitting just below this one). If you post your mirrored URL in [...]
