The Ref

Friday, December 23rd, 2011

For a movie about a whole bunch of felonies (burglary, kidnapping, blackmail), it really is a heart warming tale of hope for redemption.

Click Walk

Thursday, July 7th, 2011

I click when I walk.
I wear cheap steel toes, and the heel of the sole wears down such that gravel gets into the honeycombing, but then can’t get out again, and it rattles around when I walk.
This morning, I was thinking about how I might miss the sound when I get around to replacing these shoes. Then just now, as I was walking back to my desk, one of my cow-orkers asked me why I make noise when I walk.

Much like the t-shirts, it would seem I’ve gathered another expected affectation.

The tension of opposing ideals

On the one hand, I want everything scrobbled accurately to last.fm.
On the other hand, I want iTunes to properly group albums by different artists that happen to have the same title.

I like that idea

Next time I’m at a light next to a car with a really loud stereo, I’ll start throwing spare change at them. When the ask WTF I’m doing, I’ll say I thought they were an ice-cream truck =)

OK, not really. I’d just like to watch someone else try doing it =p

Where do the Chuzzles go?

Tuesday, May 17th, 2011

I like to imagine that when the disappear from my game board, they are reappearing on-board some angry klingon vessel =)

Also the Chuzzle game looks like the didn’t test on a tablet form factor =(

Call for a cover

Tuesday, January 4th, 2011

I am really tempted to make a craigslist ad to find people willing to work on a cover of “The Song” by The Chippettes, from the modern Chipmunks sequel movie.
Yes, I am serious.
Much like Hope 7, I somehow find an amazingly uplifting beauty to this little gem of pop production, hidden behind the crass commercial ancestry.

You may call me crazy and maybe you might be right
The music inside just keeps going all through the night

‘Cause when I rock
No one rocks harder than me

I got the bass and the drums that are moving me along.
Inside my brain there’s a song.

Larry

Monday, November 22nd, 2010

First it got dark
Then it got scary
But then it turned out
That his name was Larry
So everyone sighed
A breath of relief
That all would be well
And held to that belief

You know that old saying…

A boat is a hole in the water that you throw money into, and kids are just like boats…that you can’t sell or ride around in the water on.
