I gots me a new job
I'd bet a dollar per donut that all my regular readers already know I got a new job. A while ago. It's old news, really. But I suppose, given that I announced my desire on this blog, some kind of online conclusion is only fitting.
So, I've got a new job. The [...]
Michael Yon: An unique view into Iraq
My friend Cliff, a very knowledgeable guy when it comes to military, current events, politics, says:
Hey, boys and girls. For the last few weeks, I've had a feed to Google Reader from a guy named Michael Yon. He's an independent reporter/blogger working in Iraq right now, and the stuff he comes out with is pretty [...]
4400 Season 4 closes
SPOILERS ALERT.If you haven't watched The 4400 Season 4 finale, this might spoil some things.
I've always enjoyed The 4400 more for the one-off, spooky element than I have for it's continuing story (which is rare for me, "MrContinuityLover72"). Perhaps the ongoing story isn't gripping enough, but I often struggle to remember the basic [...]
Good Goddamn, Validation sucks
What the fuck is wrong with us programmer types. Why is it that my fist programming job cannot be "mig" (Management Information Group... I suggest you don't work for them.. although Don, the man in charge of development, still rates as the, hands down, best development boss I've ever had. One [...]

Read ArticleGalactica ends at four
Galactica is ending. Not so unexpected. Lots of articles mention declining ratings (seeing as downloads and PVR recordings don't count), but the narrative was approacing the end-game, and the showrunner(s) had been public about feeling it was close to the end. It's sad. And I'm so excited. So very goddamn [...]
Read ArticleNot Even The Second Doctor?
This is so me. I'll wager most who know me well could recognize the similarities.
What a conversation crutch my favorite TV Shows are. But.. I don't follow sports, lately religion isn't the endless fascination it once was, I hate celebrity gossip, feel personal gossip is best kept personal, and, well... I don't [...]
Download Heroes Comix with the PowerShell Goodness
Are you a Heroes fan? One that's not afraid to run a powershell script? And
someone who reads my blog? If you're still reading, then today's your
lucky day! Here's a snippet I used to download the supplementary heroes
comics. Clicking hyperlinks with a mouse is for chumps! I didn't
bother to figure out how to auto-detect the number [...]
A thinner skin

A thinner skin
Of late, I have been [...]

Yah... they took it down. Fuckers. But we'll always have the image. Goddamn jackasses are prolly afraid of law suits or some suck malarkey, If [...]
Good Goddamn, Blogger sucks balls
Here is my official review of Blogger.com: It sucks balls. It sucks ass. It sucks wang. It sucks whatever you can put in front of it. It sucks other things that suck ass, because it's not good enough to suck ass itself. I do not recommend the use of [...]
Read ArticleLook what you can do in Powershell: FTP!
Imagine my surprise when my friendly neighbourhood I.T. fellow told me a ftp command line client built into windows. Man, I haven't done command line FTP since high school. But after finding a good ftp command reference, well, of course, I couldn't resist trying to concoct an unholy marriage between ftp and powershell.
