So…Now What?

Posted on Thursday 22 January 2009

This site went up and running in October 2007, with an agreement for 2 years with my hosting service. I had big plans for it at the time, mostly revolving around my music. This hasn’t quite worked out the way I had hoped, mainly because of one frustration after another foiling my best efforts to actually release music at something resembling a professional level (First my old computer started going on the fritz, then I realized that this one didn’t have the proper slot for my sound card, then found out that apparently adapters don’t work on this computer either). Given these setbacks, one would think that re-upping for a further 3-year commitment to the site would not be the smartest idea.

You don’t know me very well.

So now I have this site, with (In theory, anyway) more disc space and bandwidth than I know what to do with until about September 2012..and nothing to do with it at the moment. If anyone has any ideas, feel free to throw them out. I’ve actually considered doing a webcomic, but I’m not sure if this is such a good idea because A. Whatever talents I was blessed with, artistic talent is definitely not one of them, and B. Knowing me, I’d quickly lose interest in it before it had a chance to get up to speed.

In other news, I’m back in a StarCraft mode again, as happens occasionally. I’m still awful at it, if you’re curious.

Hmm. This Could Be Bad.

You know, for as much as people rag on George W. Bush (Deservedly so at points), I’m pretty sure he didn’t flub the Inauguration Oath either time he took office like I just watched Obama do (If anyone has footage proving me wrong, please provide it, I’d like to see).

Hopefully this was a one-off, caught up in the moment thing, and we didn’t all misoverestimate (As Dubya might say) Obama.

R.I.P. Ricardo Montalban

Posted on Wednesday 14 January 2009

He was a Japanese guy in Sayonara. He did commercials for the Chrysler Cordoba in the ’70s. More recently, he was the grandfather in the Spy Kids movies, and the voice of Senor Senior Sr. on Kim Possible. He’s probably best known as Mr. Rourke on Fantasy Island.

To me, though, he’ll always be Khan.

Montalban was 88.

That’s really all I wanted to say. A big post-MAGFest update will be coming. Really.
