Freedom of Choice is what you’ve got…

Checking the old Google analytics for the blog the other night I found the following entry for properties of network visitors

I don’t know which I should more worried about… that the “man” has read this 3 times in the last month or that 2 of the larger healthcare companies in North America are stalking me.

I’m probably on a no fly list now…

Oh no not me…

It’s August….

I hate August…

I hate August more then I hate any other time of year…..

All of the good pod casts are on vacation and putting up repeats….

Geek Brief with Cali Lewis, Ask a Ninja, and Battlestar Galactica (granted it’s been off line for a couple of months now and won’t start until the 4 season picks up in the new year)

Comics are on “hiatus” damn you non-sequitor

Football is in the presason, the games aren’t even that good. The first string of the Cardinals can beat up on the second string of the Steelers.

Computers die in August… that always costs me money.

I hate August.

Dream on….

So in the last 3 weeks I’ve sat down four or five times to try and put some sort of drivel up for you my loving horde of 3.2 readers to look at, consume, digest, and throw back at me at “crap” it is the order of things here in this little corner of the interweb.

So in the course of the last three weeks I’ve given you

2 – posts about my personal ramblings on the iShit.

1 – 4 year old singing German death metal

1 – email from a uncle about he and my aunt’s tour across the Maryland country side (ok I have to admit I did find the picture with the tank rather unique and I will probably print it out to put on the fridge)

and 1 – post with quotes from work.

I already have fairly low standards for this corner of the internet… ya know. Most all of the words spelled correctly, almost proper grammar (thats more miss then hit), and a something that is more then two sentences when I’m dones.

When I started doing this back in 2000 (shit I have been doing this for some time) Actually I’ve been doing “blogging” in one sort or another for damn near 10 years now I just don’t have any of the old websites and I really didn’t start doing it “consistently” until 2000. Getting back to the point of this paragraph was to relate that when I started “blogging” I held my self to the standard of at least 2 pages of text in word. Can you tell I was in school when I was started?

The point of this post? No real point I’m just padding numbers to #300 on blogger and I’m just trying not to make them all pictures from the phone.

Never thought to question why…..

Web 2.0 is a wonderful thing…. it has brought us many sites

myspace

facebook

gmail….

you tube…

Ah youtube the first place to look for bad video’s or once upon a wonderful time to find clips from the daily show. Sadly I have been reduced to watching the daily show on my DVR.

A unfortunate side effect of you tube type technology coupled with cell phones that take video and cheap digital video cameras…. is every freaking website has a video show on it now.

Ok not every website but the web sites that I goto that I actually care about.

Case in point Tom’s Hardware… they have a review of how “Games of the year” hold up down the line. It’s not a article it’s a clip! Ok it may not be the best example but come on guys I don’t want to listen to a good gamer / bad gamer banter about games that I stopped playing LAST YEAR! It’s quite frustrating when all you want to do is read article and you people completely kill it for you.

Damn you web 2.0.

Here is a thought guys… do a PRINT article on the best games your not playing “Supreme Commander” anyone?

Beuler?

Beuler?

Beuler?

One of these days….

I’m actually going to write in this damn blog more then 2 times a year!

I’m on the research hunt for home brew right now… probably will start doing the first honest to god batch in the late summer.

It’s not going to be anything fancy that is for damn sure. Though this does bring up a good point… how fancy should one get?

I can get the super deluxe starter package with Keg and all or do I go more basic? The good news is that if I decide that I don’t like home brewing I’m out $100 after I get done selling the pieces parts on eBay.

Deep pieces of food for thought…
