I Can’t Watch

I know I should be a good hockey fan and watch the Ottawa/Anaheim series, but I just can’t bring myself to do it. Stupid Ottawa. I blame them.

MPAA Arms Malaysian Theaters with DVD Sniffing Dogs, Night-Vision Goggles

No, that’s not a joke. It really happened, just in time for Spiderman 3 and POTC3.
After showing people to their seats, trained ushers are strapping on the goggles and scanning darkened cinemas around the country to spot anyone trying to make illegal copies of movies with hand-held video recorders or mobile phones.

Messing around in Inkscape

I was checking out the website of the designer who created one of the Wordpress themes I have installed, and I happened across a tutorial on tracing a picture in Illustrator. The steps seemed to translate over to Inkscape so I gave it a shot. Here are the results:

I love Joe Paterno

In a day and age where College athletes at the highest levels can be as famous and as pampered as their professional counterparts, Joe Pa is a throwback. At least 15 Nittany Lions were involved in an ugly off-campus brawl, but instead of trying to move past it quickly and using typical head-coach doubletalk [...]

Long Lines at Ottawa Hardware Stores for Broom Returns

The Buffalo Sabres staved off elimination with a 3-2 win at Scotiabank Place last night. The Sabres quieted the crowd early, scoring 9 seconds in as Derek Roy tipped a sloppy pass by Meszaros to Drury, who sent it back to Roy on the doorstep for the chip in. That was all the scoring in [...]

Lost: One Offense

Well, that’s that. The Sabres offense vanished, even as Ryan Miller tried his absolute best to steal Game 3 for his team. Briere missed on a wide open net right at the start of the game, and it went downhill from there. The Sens had a revolving door on the penalty box [...]

Come on guys!

I want the Sabres to get MAD. I want Gaustad to beat the snot out of Alfredsson, I want Miller to challenge his team to play better in front of him, and I want Lindy Ruff to rise up and strike down Bryan Murray the next time one of his players decides to cheap-shot [...]

Congratulations!

I would just like to congratulate my wife, Jennifer, for graduating with her Associates Degree last night! Thomas and I knew you could do it!
