Go go oxford comma!
Ahem. Anyway. So! I’ve always been somewhat of an evangelist — but not in the religious sense (although I did go through a phase that could be said to approximate that O.o). I’ve always been maybe a little too motivated (at least internally) about sharing the music & books that I enjoy [...]

So… we’ve been, collectively, sick for over a week now. The boys first got whatever it is sometime around last weekend – brought home from daycare no doubt. Then I got it Tuesday, and Jen the day after or so. I missed two days of work and Jen missed one. And we’re still feeling like [...]

For the first time in YEARS I think.
So I should post something. Right. Because we’re all here for the digits yo. Even if they be singles.
So, what’s going on lately?
Well, right now I’m annoyed that there isn’t an RSAT tool for Windows 7 RC, only RTM (how am I supposed to test it then, HUH?). [...]

Orange juice was “on sale” for $2.69. Regular price was $2.75.
After 8 years of 9.99% fixed rate on my AMEX, no missed payments, extremely responsible CC usage, they upped my rate to ~15% VARIABLE. Which means “You will be fucked in VARIABLE ways.”
Which means I’ll be paying that off and closing it down asap.

I always wondered where the Lilith myth came from, and now I have a better idea (source):
Lilith does not appear in Genesis, nor is she mentioned in the Bible or other major religious works. But the stories of her as Adam’s first wife, and her subsequent “occupation” as a [...]

You know, I’ve actually been corrected by older people (read 35-50) on how to say 50’s name a few time..I say “fifty” because thats how you FUCKING SAY THE NUMBERS 5 AND 0 WHEN WRITTEN NEXT TO EACH OTHER, but the friendly older folks are like “Young man, I think it’s ‘Fiddy’.” To which I [...]

It’s called a “short”.
It’s just not on the menu. And if you order a small, which will get you 8oz most other places, you get a 12oz “tall”. Yes, I know “tall” & “small” rhyme, but “tall” doesn’t really convey much smallness does it?
Well. Now you know, and knowing is a measurable portion of [...]

So Jen was watching some show on the CW tonight and I noticed that everyone was a brunette. Literally ALL of the 6 or 7 different female characters I saw were brunette. And not a SINGLE blonde. I could have missed them though, I wasn’t watching that close. Jen mentioned that one of the girls [...]
