It’s 9AM. Do you know where your Stupid Evil Bastard is?

Final hour. One more entry after this one. What the fuck shall I bitch about now?

I started cruising around the Blogathon webring to see how others are holding up and my sense of pride has swelled somewhat as a result. Even my minimal entries have had more content than some of these other folks in the last wee hours and that’s no small feat considering how fried my brain is . . . → Read More: Final hour. One more entry after this one. What the fuck shall I bitch about now?

Next year I need to find a Game-a-thon.

This wouldn’t be so hard if I could keep my brain engaged, but the time limit on entries means you can’t spend too much time writing about one thing so you have to think of something else later.

I’m going to bitch about the Sci-Fi Channel again

This channel has become a clearing house for pseudo-science, wild conspiracy theories and supernatural claptrap. It started with the success of Crossing Over with John Edward and now they have a whole night dedicated to programs that masquerade as investigative endeavors.

Awwww….

B&T’s EA just ended. Now it’s one of those police chase shows. I suppose it’s admitting to my redneck heritage to say that I actually enjoy watching these stupid shows. I think it’s my amazement that people can be so stupid as to risk their lives as well as the lives of everyone around them . . . → Read More: Awwww….

Memories of late night TV come flooding back.

When I left my desktop publishing position at Kinko’s the next job I took on was as a Systems Operator for a company called Teletrac. This company sold vehicle location devices for corporate fleet tracking and stolen vehicle recovery. We maintained a network of 23 IBM PCs running a mix of QNX, MS-DOS, Windows 95 . . . → Read More: Memories of late night TV come flooding back.
