Wii Fat

January 27th, 2009

So I climbed on Lori’s Wii Fit last night.  Dang am I obese, and the yoga routines were embarrassing.  I used to be able to do this stuff, dang it!

Still, I guess my balance is pretty decent; I tend to lean back a little too much, but other than that, I do okay.

Ah, Wikipedia!

For what it’s worth, I left it in.

Assholes.

November 25th, 2008

If you are the type to go around insulting random strangers, it is likely that one of them is going to sock you on the nose. Make no mistake; this would be wrong, and the person who assaulted you should be penalized.

Don’t think, however, that you’ll find a sympathetic ear in me; “he wouldn’t have hit you if you hadn’t been such an asshole” would be my likely response.

I know a guy who is a Mormon, and he tells me stories about protests in California over his church’s role in helping pass Proposition 8. If the stories are to be believed, some of the protestors have crossed the line into tresspass, and even assault.  Make no mistake, this behavior is wrong, and the people doing it should be penalized.

I just don’t want to hear any complaints about it.  They wouldn’t be doing this if the Mormons hadn’t been such assholes on this issue.

No, I didn’t kill him. I did remember how inconvenient the old “run as close to owner as possible without getting caught” game can be.

His punishment: the cold shoulder from me for ten minutes. He hates that, especially when Roxy gets attention.

Roxy is the little gal further from the camera; Jet is the big boy closer.

Separated at birth?

Google Chrome

September 2nd, 2008

I’m trying Google Chrome out now.  So far, not bad.  I’ve had a little odd behavior in text areas, and when I loaded bigscary to write this post, all of my tabs and windows froze until the site loaded.  If I understand the “every tab a process” model, this shouldn’t be happening, but it happens with some frequency.

 

Other than that, I’m just having the usual “where the hell is the button that does this” issues that always occur when moving from one application to a competing one.  So far, I am not noticing any stark differences in performance between Chrome and Firefox 3.  I’ve used it with GMail and Maps.  I’ll take a gander at Google Docs later on.

C’mon, folks…

Just leave Bristol Palin the hell alone.

Yeah, schadenfreude is fun, and heaven knows right-wingers seem to have lots of trouble living up to the standards they so want to impose upon us all, but this is a seventeen-year-old we’re talking about here.

Hammer Sarah Palin for her right-wing social views all you want. Hell, I’ll help.

Just let the girl go.
