Last week I went through my spam folder in my e-mail client. One, I wanted to make sure that no good e-mails had slipped through the cracks. Fortunately, not. And two, I wanted to go through the word salad spams and see if I could find some completely batshit phrase that might make for aContinue reading “On the Latest Spam Annoyances”

On Today’s Exciting Find
Found today. Kinfauns. A CD of demoes the Beatles recorded prior to the White Album sessions. Some of these tracks appeared on Beatles Anthology 3, but there’s twenty-odd others that didn’t. I haven’t seen this CD in a year. A year! Ah, listening to “Child of Nature” now. There’s a flamenco style to John’s guitarContinue reading “On Today’s Exciting Find”
On Weird Waking Thoughts
I have strange thoughts as I wake up. This morning was no different. I’m writing this, just so it’s down. The Ents. What sort of metaphysical philosophy would they believe in?

Age of Empires has one spoiled — the things I take for granted, like queueing up units or finding idle units quickly, aren’t there in this old relic.Continue reading “On a Different Kind of Warfare”
On the Coming War With Iran
I wrote two weeks ago about the President’s decision to name the Iranian Republican Guard — one of the major branches of their military — a “global terrorist organization” and the implications that had for a potential military strike against Iran. Then I read this today, an article at DailyKos giving the perspective of aContinue reading “On the Coming War With Iran”
On Presidential Primary Madness
The Presidential Primary/Caucus process is broken. Florida moved their primary in January, and the Democratic National Committee said, basically, “Get the fuck back in line, or we’ll take your delegates — and your voice in picking the next presidential candidate — away from you.” Now Michigan is moving their primary into mid-January. Which means thatContinue reading “On Presidential Primary Madness”
