Best of luck. Break a leg!
in which i have an audition for a feature this afternoon
I composed a post in Firefox all about how I have this awesome audition this afternoon. Then, when I tried to publish it, Firefox hung for ten minutes before it crashed. I've been spoiled by stability, so I didn't do the ctl-c that was so pretty much automatic a few years ago... so here's the tl...
Speaking of Jersey Shore...

'nuff said!
I guess ignorance is fashionable again.

Marketing email I just got: "Do you ever wonder which apps influencers (like yourself), celebrities, or Jersey Shore castmates have on their phones?" My response:
Seven Billion Served
A milestone is about to be reached. The world population is about to reach seven billion souls. Best estimates place October 31, 2011 as the day we hit that. Think about how many people that is. Think about what it takes house, clothe, and feed each and every one of... Continue reading

The 53-percenters' manifesto
I stumbled across an article that finally resonated with me about the apparent no-man's land between the Occupy Wall Street (the self-proclaimed "99%") and the 1% they are protesting: http://money.cnn.com/2011/10/26/news/economy/occupy_wall_street_backlash/index.htm?source=cnn_bin&hpt=hp_bn5 In this article, there is a growing movement tired of the Occupy Wall Street movement lumping in the 53% of...

Excellent! Made my morning, too. I don't have to collate, but rather do an online sort in some database somewhere. No papercuts for me. Wheeeeeeeeee!
P.S. There definitely needs to be a Don't Be A Dick app.

Ya know, its truly sad that "Hilton" and "Kardashian" have entered the common American lexicon without any real substance backing them. It's like they were given fame and fortune like a line of credit and now they have to pay it back with interest. (...which is largely why we have to put up with them.)
Papercuts is too good for them. I rather think that dying from trying to juggle the running chainsaws that cut down the trees that made the paper that would otherwise give them papercuts would be more appropriate. But I suppose there's no irony in that.

Next time you go to Con in San Diego, I will be sure to pick one up, no matter if I am furiously happy or happily furious. I will gladly trade you that red Swingline stapler for a Captain Smarmy Pants T-shirt!

Recipe time: Wil's Sinusitis Can Suck It Vegetable Soup
I managed to go eighteen whole months without getting sick, but sometime in the last week or so, something worked its way into my sinuses, and it's been kicking my ass for the last 48 hours. For most of the last week, I've been waking up in the morning with an intensely sore throat and painful, ...

Wil Wheaton is twice the geek I am...
Take that any way you want to. But it is nevertheless true. After listening to his Memories Of The Futurecast (and having read the book,) I have come to realize that he passed me right up on the way to geekdom doing at least twice my speed. To his credit,... Continue reading

I saw the original in the theatre all those years ago... scared the crap outta my sorry teenage butt back then. I guess I will have to go check it out.
The Thing is really great, is not about Ben Grimm
Anne and I saw The Thing last night. tl;dr: I thought it was great. It's a prequel to the 1982 John Carpenter movie, which is one of my favorite movies of all time, and easily the best Sci-Fi/Horror film ever made. Normally, I would flat out refuse to see it, because I thought it was a remake/r...
