On VG Cats
I interviewed a very charming young woman at work about a month ago. An aside. A month ago, has it been that long? The calendar says so, so it must be true. So, a month ago, and in the segment of the interview where I open the interview to any questions the applicant may have,Continue reading “On VG Cats”

On William Shatner's Big Win
William Shatner received an Emmy Award tonight, his second in the past two years for his role as Denny Crane on Boston Legal. Shatner’s co-star, James Spader, also received an Emmy for his work on the series. Shatner’s Emmy is well-deserved. He’s done superlative work as Denny Crane, keeping the audience guessing as to whetherContinue reading “On William Shatner's Big Win”
On the Nintendo Revolution Controller
You can’t play a video game without the controller. The controller is the player’s interface with the system and the game. Nintendo has, like Sony and Microsoft, been developing a new system, code-named Revolution, for launch next year to replace the GameCube.

On a Needy Cat

On the Current Layout
The webpage looks different. The webpage looks a lot different. I’m trying something out live to see if it works. We’ll be back to geekdom heaven in a few days, once I’m sure I’ve got all the bugs in the style sheets and other sundry files worked out. Truth to tell, I do like theContinue reading “On the Current Layout”
On the Real President Bush
I had to share this: Bush is in fact fidgety, cold and snappish in private. He yells at those who dare give him bad news and is therefore not surprisingly surrounded by an echo chamber of terrified sycophants. He is slow to comprehend concepts that don’t emerge from his gut. He is uncomprehending of theContinue reading “On the Real President Bush”
