  • Shirt.Woot Derby!

    I felt good enough about something I drew in Inkscape to enter it in Woot’s current shirt derby. My entry is ‘Meat is Off the Menu’, a parody of The Punisher. :D

  • Rant: Prefoamed Hand Soap

    Prefoaming hand soap is the downfall of civilization. Seriously, when did people get so fracking lazy that they can’t make their own soap foam up? I don’t know about you, but I never stood in front of the sink in the bathroom thinking ‘You know, I’m having a hell of a time getting this soap…

  • Milestones Met

    Bonds, Glavine and A-Rod all took care of business since last I blogged. Well, Bonds tied but has yet to exceed Hank Aaron’s home run total.

  • First Babylon 5 – The Lost Tales DVD Released

    Woohoo! Babylon 5 – The Lost Tales is out today! It’s already #6 on the DVD sales chart at Amazon, which has the best price I’ve found so far. I must have it!!

  • Milestone Night?

    There are three milestones that could be bested in Major League Baseball tonight. Barry Bonds* goes for 755* and beyond*****, Tom Glavine is attempting to get his 300th win, and Alex Rodriguez is looking for his 500th home run. I’m probably most impressed by Glavine, unlike the incredibly inflating home run totals, 300 wins has…

  • 45 Best Freeware Design Programs

    From classic favorites such as the GIMP and Inkscape to Dogwaffle Free, Terragen and Serif DrawPlus, this is a great collection of freeware Design software. If you want to get going on just about any sort of image editing/creation, but don’t want to shell out the big bucks for offerings from Adobe and the like,…

  • Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer

    I should probably subtitle this “I’m what’s wrong with American filmgoers” but I loved this movie. The characters progressed from where they were in the first film, with the Human Torch surprising the heck out of me at the end. I did not think Sue was over the top as far as her bridal freakouts…

  • Random Image!

    We have Random Images on the front page, now. That’s all, I guess.

  • Battlestar Galactica Will End After Season 4

    Ronald Moore confirmed that the end is in sight for the ragtag fugitive fleet, and it is after season 4. We thought, if we don’t start paying this off and really revealing those secrets, we’ll be moving in the wrong direction and get to a place where it felt like we were jerking off the…

  • 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. The Motion…

  • 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 about…

  • Trekker Sells Modded Apartment for $840,000

    Our favorite English Trek geek finally sold his apartment, which had been remade into a very detailed Next Gen suite. I wonder how much cash he put into it…
