Self-Trepanation
A recent request was made to put up a certain manual I created a few years ago. A copy of the manual can now be downloaded here.
Stingray City
I've been back from the Cayman Islands for a couple weeks now and I thought it was about time I put some pictures up. Here's one I took at City, which is a shallow area off of Grand Cayman where s hang out. Back in the
Disinformation Minister
Iraq’s Information Minister has become quite popular, for whatever reason. He always seemed to have this funny little smirk on his face whenever giving a press conference. I remember watching a few on CNN when I was in the Cayman islands and I thought the guy was on crack
Slate
I used to be a big fan of Salon until they switched to a subscription service. Too bad really, I always loved reading their stuf. Now I’ve turned to Slate, which has some pretty damn good articles too. Take this one on the American military and how it’s
Benefits and Options
As you may recall from a post way back when, I’ve been climbing my way up the corporate ladder. This week I made it up another rung: more money and benefits. Life is good. I’m not too sure what my benefits are yet, but I believe they involve
Fischerspooner Concert
Tonight, at around 8:00 pm, I'm off to go see Fischerspooner. I think I'm going to wear a tie, it seems like the right thing to do. Actually, I'll use any excuse to wear a tie--it just feels so adult.

Sunburn
My hands are sunburnt from riding around on a bicycle. Damn. I've been putting on sun block religiously, but I guess I must've sweated it off. I have a new fondness for aloe vera. I've also learned two interesting facts: Fact 1 - Cayman
Water Sports
So my SCUBA lessons have been put off until Saturday on account of ground swell. Apparently, that makes lessons unpleasant. I figure they know what they're talking about, so I went to the beach instead. Wicked!
Vacation
For those not in the know, I’m currently in the Cayman Islands. The weather here is wicked and it’s just a short bike ride to the beach from where I’m staying. Not bad, not bad at all. I’ve got a bit of sunburn, wich is to
Cowering under my desk
You know, from a web design perspective, the US government site for preparing for terrorist attacks isn’t so bad. I especially love the PDF’s. My favrourite picture has to be the one bellow. Sometimes I feel like cowering under my desk at work, for completely different reasons of
