Question: When you're using the Internet or otherwise "online," what percentage of the time are you on an instant messaging client? My Answer: I'm on it 24/7. When I don't want to be bothered, I put up an away message, but I never "hide" from people online. I'm pretty blunt - if I'm busy and […]

Question: Will this entry force you to get a TypeKey ID? My Answer: I'm so sick of comment spam - the simple flooding that can occur when I'm asleep for a few hours is ridiculous and something MT-Blacklist can't stop - that I've turned on registration (for now). We'll see how this goes… You are […]

Question: How often do you print from your computer? My Answer: I print things to PDF about once a day. I print to paper, oh, once every week or two - usually a Pizza Hut coupon or directions to a new place. Receipts and confirmations are printed to PDF and filed away (and, weekly, backed […]

Question: What's the smallest place in which you've ever lived? My Answer: College dorm rooms are, what, 10' x 20' or so? Or 15'x 20'? Either way, there's my answer. And, I supposed that technically I lived in half of that space. You are encouraged to answer the Question of the Day for yourself in […]

I've left off the first part of this article, but I've quoted what I found to be the funniest from an article called "Kerry Calls Bush Poll Lead 'Wrong Bounce at Wrong Time'."

I'm leaving later today to fly to Erie to see Carey, find my new apartment, and that sort of thing. To anyone thinking that this will make my apartment an easy target for theft, think again! I've got a full-time house-sitter. We went to the shooting range the other day and he's accurate enough to […]

Question: What's the worst scam for which you've ever fallen? My Answer: I once bought a "porn tape" that supposedly caught two famous women going at it. I knew it was rather silly, and I knew it was a scam so I didn't exactly "fall" for it, but it amused me to the tune of […]

The Clinton Gun Ban is no longer law. Today, I can legally purchase and own 15-round magazines for my two guns. And, honestly, that's about the only change as far as I'm concerned. Of course, Kerry attempted to seize the moment to make some kind of point, but ended up falling flat on his face. […]

That's it. Of course, there are bonuses for other things like "writes well" and "has a sense of humor" or "knows a little bit […]
