8.29.2003 Gimme a break. If you can't hook up your TiVo to your Wi-Fi network because you don't understand how your firewall works, you don't deserve to have either a TiVo or a Wi-Fi network anyway. If you're going to rant about something being difficult, at least rant about the right thing. posted by Christopher Null | 11:08 AM Last night I had a vivid dream that molten metal was dripping from the ceiling and onto my pillow. This was so disturbing to me that I actually took off my shirt (in my sleep) and covered my pillow with it, ostensibly to protect me from being injured by the molten metal pooling there. I smart. posted by Christopher Null | 10:48 AM 8.28.2003 Now that the kid is eating food with her hands, the mess factor in the dining area has multiplied by a factor of ten. What's worse is that I discover I am no longer able to eat without getting food all over myself. Every day after lunch I look down and sure enough there's mustard, salsa, chili sauce, ketchup, pasta sauce, or some other mystery food on my shirt. Am I regressing? In other news, today I saw a dog wearing socks. posted by Christopher Null | 2:06 PM We used to let Zoe chew on the mail. She just likes to gnaw on paper endlessly. Who doesn't? So anyway I'm in the men's room here and our local mail man drops in... and brings a giant load of to-be-delivered mail in with him, dumping it right there in the middle of the floor. Whoa. No more mail meals. posted by Christopher Null | 9:16 AM 8.27.2003 You can now freeze off your own warts using a little can of freon and a special hollow-stemmed Q-Tip they sell at the drug store. This is only mildly painful (I have a plantar wart on the bottom of my foot) and it seems to have worked, at least temporarily. It's very strange, probably a really bad idea, but way better than 8 weeks of wearing those stupid acid-patches. posted by Christopher Null | 2:05 PM 8.24.2003 When I used to write for the Austin Chronicle, I often appeared in the masthead next to Harvey Pekar, whose name, when alphabetized, followed mine. Now they made a movie about Harvey. It's pretty good. posted by Christopher Null | 8:55 AM 8.22.2003 Unless stopped, 20 computers are going to destroy the world at 3 o'clock today (EDT). Unfortunately, this is going to interfere with my lunch hour. posted by Christopher Null | 9:29 AM 8.21.2003 Welcome to my home town. posted by Christopher Null | 4:05 PM 8.20.2003 And here is the primary reason why filmmakers should never whine about bad reviews to those who wrote them. This is also why I should stop taking pity on the dreck DVDs that show up unannounced in my mailbox. posted by Christopher Null | 12:56 PM 8.17.2003 Why is it that in horse racing we bet on the horse but in auto racing we bet on the driver? In other news I am so sick it isn't funny. Since Thursday afternoon, massive sinus problems, sneezing, headache, stuffiness. All the drugs in the world have basically done nothing. Write me if you have suggestions for meds. I'll try anything. posted by Christopher Null | 4:12 PM 8.16.2003 Amusing scene outside the KFC: Young lithe girl arguing with obese KFC manager, with a cop overseeing the debate. Girl has on a shirt reading "KFC is Cruelty" and is handing out fliers to would-be chicken eaters, much to the dissatisfaction of the manager. As there's a long line inside the KFC (I don't care if it's cruelty, I'm freakin hungry) I get to see the whole thing shake down, though I can't hear what's said. Eventually the cop leaves, the protester stays. She's ordered to take down her little sign, that's it. As I depart, she's handing out fliers on the corner, but only between chats on her cell phone. posted by Christopher Null | 2:01 PM 8.15.2003 Well this is great. Of the top ten Google hits for "top DVD sales," zero are up to date. The #10 link is 2 weeks old, but the rest haven't been updated since 2001 or 2002, and some don't have any data on them at all. The Google backlash is supposed to be over, but I think it's got a long way to go. posted by Christopher Null | 1:52 PM Is it funny that the Midwest and the Middle East have such radically different denotations, considering they're, you know, both in the "middle"? posted by Christopher Null | 10:56 AM 8.14.2003 "Scared," said Jeffrey Snop, of Queens, at the Times Square subway station. "It reminded me of 9/11 and stuff like that." Er, okay. I'm just giddy that now New York has to face the insults that we did over power outages a few years ago. Losers. posted by Christopher Null | 4:32 PM 8.12.2003 Y'all gotta dig Junior Senior... the video rocks. 
posted by Christopher Null | 10:11 AM 8.11.2003 On the geeky lame side... but... I Am A: Neutral Good Human Thief Bard Alignment: Neutral Good characters believe in the power of good above all else. They will work to make the world a better place, and will do whatever is necessary to bring that about, whether it goes for or against whatever is considered 'normal'. Race: Humans are the 'average' race. They have the shortest life spans, and because of this, they tend to avoid the racial prejudices that other races are known for. They are also very curious and tend to live 'for the moment'. Primary Class: Thieves are the most roguish of the classes. They are sneaky and nimble-fingered, and have skills with traps and locks. While not all use these skills for burglary, that is a common occupation of this class. Secondary Class: Bards are the entertainers. They sing, dance, and play instruments to make other people happy, and, frequently, make money. They also tend to dabble in magic a bit. Deity: Lathander is the Neutral Good god of spring, dawn, birth, and renewal. His followers believe in new beginnings, and work for the betterment of all. They have no preferred weapon, but they typically wear plate mail and a shield, with red and yellow tinting. Lathander's symbol is rosy pink disk, typically cut from rose quartz.

Meme courtesy Arno Ghelfi. posted by Christopher Null | 9:21 AM 8.10.2003 Carrie Bradshaw is the new Doogie Howser. Is there an episode of Sex and the City where Carrie doesn't type something, look off into the distance, then return to a close-up of what she's typing? I hear the Doogie theme song in my head right now. Over and over and over. Though I have to say, there is a lot more rhyming-based humor in SATC. posted by Christopher Null | 9:15 PM Arnie's a fan of Coke, Pepsi, and Roto Rooter. posted by Christopher Null | 7:40 PM 8.08.2003 My old friend Charles is down to one nut. Y'all give him some support. posted by Christopher Null | 9:48 PM 8.07.2003 I neglected to mention my new gig... exciting stuff, good times, good times.... In other news, today is this weblog's one-year anniversary. Wow. posted by Christopher Null | 10:50 AM 8.06.2003 Y'all voting for Larry? Hey Larry, how about a linkback? posted by Christopher Null | 9:36 PM 8.04.2003 Vomit. Let me tell you about vomit. They say when it's your own child that pukes on you, you don't mind, but when that amounts to about a half gallon of sour milk right in your lap, well, you mind. Buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuhhhhh. posted by Christopher Null | 10:39 AM 8.02.2003 I don't know much about how Pakistan and Stonehenge could be connected, but this site makes an interesting case. Strange! posted by Christopher Null | 11:47 AM 8.01.2003 Say goodbye to your productivity. posted by Christopher Null | 4:13 PM |
