I was talking to Cameron tonight and he pointed me to a couple of video responses to Lazy Sunday. Check out the West Coast’s Lazy Monday and the Midwest’s Lazy Muncie. They are both pretty good, but not quite as good the original. [ READ MORE ]
For only the second time this year we won. Our opponent tonight was pretty good, but one ref wasn’t. I think he had it out for me. He would call anything in my favor, seriously. As an example, in one play toward the end of the game, a guy on the other team and I [ READ MORE ]
I signed up yesterday for TextDrive’s Mixed Grill hosting. A one-time fee gets me three great Joyent services for as long as they are around, one of which is a nice web hosting package. Since they sign people up manually, and it is the weekend, I haven’t gotten my account information for Strongspace or Joyent, both [ READ MORE ]
I was listening to the Ray Davis Show this morning, a three-hour bluegrass show out of American University in Washington D.C, and heard a version of Down in the Willow Garden performed by the Lonesome River Band. I don’t know any of the history of Down in the Willow Garden, but I really like the song. [ READ MORE ]
For anyone interested in the second season of Deadwood on DVD, we found out today it has been delayed until sometime in May. As recent as two weeks ago, it was supposed to be released next Tuesday. The people at Suncoast weren’t sure why it had been delayed. [ READ MORE ]
The one thing I hate on the web more than anything is when the webpage resizes the current window. It is unbearable for two reasons. First, when using tabbed browsing, all the tabs now take on this shrunken window’s size. Also, any new window you open is the size of this smaller window, until you [ READ MORE ]
Yahoo! added a PHP section to their impressive developer network. The PHP Developer Center has some good content already, focusing heavily on web services and XML. There aren’t too many things that are new for me, but the web service caching looks pretty interesting. I also really like that Yahoo! makes many of their web service [ READ MORE ]
I used my day off from work (happy birthday presidents) to move most of the domains I host over to my new host. I have a few sites left to transfer over, but so far everything has gone well. I also played around with the Flickr API a little and set up mechroboticon to display my [ READ MORE ]
The life of Lazy Sunday, that SNL digital short from a few months ago, has been an interesting one to watch. When I first saw it (I still watch it a couple times a week, actually), I thought it was amazing. I didn’t think it was going to be as popular as it is. I am [ READ MORE ]
Red Giant snapped our one-game winning streak tonight. We only had five players again for tonight’s game and even hung in the game through the first quarter. But ended up being no match for our opponent. This was by far the best offense we played all year. They didn’t score the most points on us (they [ READ MORE ]
