Just to let you all know, I will once again be disappearing into the great void that is "real life", this time for a little longer than the previous instances. Unfortunately, it is not due to me visiting Better Half, or vice versa, so you cannot blame her
Apparently, I am not the only one up in arms about the choice of Daniel Craig for the new 007. Cannot say I blame them, all things considered… Even in that picture, he simply is not Bond. Sure, he is holding a silenced…
This webpage never has technical difficulties! Ever! At all!
Unless I get tinker-y. Thanks to Andrew, it came to my attention that my comments section was not working… Well, low and behold, it was not. Who’d’a thunk? Regardless, it had something to do with the anti-spam plugin…
… to go, please. I wonder if things like this might sell at my CafePress store… Of course, if they did not, some moronic radical could always just threaten me… Either way, I might get a kick out of it .
A wise old man once stated that the limits of human stupidity simply do not exist. I honestly believe the current spate of riots, violence, and unmitigated lunacy surrounding the Danish cartoons are a modern-day example of this axiom. Every day I check the news, or talk with my wife…
Well, I was going to have a somewhat entertaining lead-in to this post, about how intelligence does not necessarily run in the family…. The example I was going to provide was Adam Baldwin, and how he is a generally good guy, of sound…
From my parents (hopefully not the originators, though…):
Some friars were behind on their belfry payments, so they opened up a small florist shop to raise the funds. Since everyone liked to buy flowers from the "men of God," the rival florist across town thought the
As some of you may or may not know, the movie industry recently chose a new James Bond – Daniel Craig. As all of you do not know, I am not fond of that choice. His acting in Tomb Raider was pathetically formulaic,…
Ok, let me get this off my chest… I do not really like the Winter Games. Or rather, I do not like certain games… Especially the snowboarding style competitions, as it turns out. It…
At least for my weblog… I went ahead and uninstalled the TechnoratiTags plugin, only to turn around and install two more. These, however, were provided by AlogBlog, a person who evidently has far too much time on his or her hands, juding from the number of MovableType plugins…
Behold my new buddy icon, care of Better Half: Yes, you could say I am something of a Stich addict… What with having no fewer than six of his stuffed incarnations, two keychains, two shirts, a Christmas ornament, and God alone knows what else with his image…
I recently implemented TechnoratiTags on wallsofthecity.net. Being the lazy schmuck I am, I have neglected to go back into all of my old posts and update the empty Keywords field in all of the posts, so the “Technorati Tags:” portion of each post will be somewhat… blank. Hell,…
Anyone who spends a fair amount of time around me would know that I absolutely detest Angelina Joli as Lara Croft. Boy, that sure is a change of topics from what is normally discussed on here. Moving right along… Ever since I saw the first few seconds of…
There is just blazingly, roaringly, monstrously retarded. I happened to check into Drudge Report this evening, and I was confronted with this image: *blinks* So, on top of demonstrating a remarkable lack of self-control, lack of respect of other nation’s laws, lack of respect…
Well, today is technically “Valentine’s Day”, but you will forgive me if I do not seem overly enthusiastic. Indeed, I have an absolutely wonderful woman to spend the rest of my life with, but this day started (at 4:30 AM, no less) with me putting her on a plane back…
In my wanderings about the blogosphere, the outrage against the rioters burning embassies and holding violent, offensive, and inflamatory riots is about as strong as the outrage against the cartoonists who “caused” (and, yes, I use that term loosely, sarcastically, and not at all honestly) the Muslim reaction.
And in the good news department for today, Better Half will be arriving shortly… While that probably does not matter a great deal to you all, in and of itself, it probably means my postings will become quite sporadic, if not stop entirely. Yes, she takes priority over this. Sorry.
By now, news of the anti-Islam political cartoons from Denmark has probably reached every corner of this little globe of ours, so I will refrain from rehashing what has already been said from many different sources, and from many different angles. Suffice it to say that I find nothing wrong…
So all of those individuals who are currently in an uproar concerning the Danish political cartoons depicting Islamic individuals in a politically comic fashion… Those individuals who are denouncing a comedy on the times as “racist” and “bigoted” and “offensive”… Those individuals who are supporting the Muslims around the world…
Well, I just realized that I had forgotten yet another relatively important aspect to a previous post. The episode was relatively good, definitely, but what was best about it was the quote uttered by Lee Adama when faced against Colonel Tigh… (I will leave this post in its…
So it appears that Wikipedia went and got itself vandalized. This post will be in two separate segments, to address both sides of the problem… First, it was completely inexcuseable for the congressmen, representatives of the congressmen, or employees of the congressmen to edit Wikipedia to their…
Well, my short hiatus was a little shorter than I was expecting. However, I am somewhat tired from the experience, so this post will be short. At any rate, those of you who pay attention to such things have probably heard that Islam is “the religion of peace”. I…
