Upcoming post soon — Boxxy Tiem!
Feb 12th
Alright, so the post after this will be an in-depth analysis of the most aesthetic internet meme “Boxee.” As you read this, I am hard at work compiling hundreds (maybe not hundreds, but certainly ~100) of sources related to Boxee. This report will be posted within 48 hours. Stay tuned. You won’t want to miss out. And then I found five dollars.
Now this is reassuring

So, I had to return my defective Logitech mouse (the customer support and warranty process was superb) via UPS so I decided to take a peek at what our local UPS facility looks like. Enjoy:
UPS, if you ever get around to reading this, upgrade your shipping facility. It kind of looks like a dump. Thanks for reading this super lame Alex Guichet style post. And then I found five dollars.
It’s now the
Jan 17th
middle of January and it hasn’t snowed – at least since I’ve been here – since December 12th or thereabouts. WHAT IS HAPPENING?!?!?!? I came to a school in the Midwest for one of several reasons. One of those reasons was because it’s supposed to actually snow during the winter. I didn’t come here to be cold without snow falling. While trying to procrastinate on this post, I just checked the weather and WeatherBug reports “flurries.” Flurries are like the snow equivalent to drizzle. Well, all I know is that I’m going to be flurried if it doesn’t snow here soon.
My fellow Californians might be curious as to why I want it to snow so badly. I stated the reason for that above in brief, but I’ll expand upon it here in more detail. Living in California has given me weather tunnel vision, if one could call it that, which blinded me from the knowledge of what it’s like to live in freezing cold temperatures and snow. Well, no longer. Since being at school here for over four months, I have developed a pretty good idea of what it feels like to live in sub-freezing temperatures, snow, and ice. For the most part it would suck 100% if you live here or More >
Writer’s Block
Jan 10th
I kinda had writer’s block, so I have posted this essay I wrote for intro to literature. Sorry about this Pat, I’ll try again tomorrow.
Reality is all around us. We are reality; the writing of this paper is reality as is the story of John Berendt’s “Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil.” Reality is what actually happens in real life and the presentation of reality is so fine that it simply cannot be made up or fabricated. What makes Berendt’s presentation of his life in Savannah, Georgia is the skillful manipulation and placement of just the right words to create a masterpiece that replicates real life while maintaining an edge – a curiosity or hook as it may be. Books that are written non-fictitiously tend to be boring, recollecting the events in dull detail and lending no part to action or suspense. On the other hand, books that are written fictitiously tend to quickly grab the reader’s attention and draw the reader into an elaborate plot where events seems to drop in and occur and just the right moment in time and space to keep the story going and the suspense high. Berendt has written a type of book that combines the authenticity, More >
Quick MLIA Update
Oct 17th
As described/promised in my later post, I said I would update you kiddies on my completely unofficiall, non-scientific MLIA study:
My next study will be to copy an old MLIA and re-post it. I will make a hypothesis now that it will not get voted through. I would assume that no one will have remembered the post and therefore not care if it’s been posted again. The conclusion will be that the general MLIA attitude has changed.
The post:
Today I installed a program and it asked if I had read and agreed to the terms and conditions. I hadn’t, but I clicked “yes” anyway. The program didn’t know I lied, and began to install. MLIA
The results are in.
Average: 12 Meh: 10
That is simply pathetic. I have other real posts that didn’t make it on MLIA but still had way higher counts than this one. Take for example this one:
Today, I found out that my name is the same as a member of the Knights of the Round Table. I now secretly consider myself cooler than other people. Thank you mom & dad. MLIA.
As you read this, I will have already quit reading MLIA. I now stick to sites like FailBlog, Lolcats, and My Drunk Pics for my daily entertainment. Thanks for reading this not-so-long post. And then I found five dollars.
