'Nuff said, I guess: Well, okay, maybe a little more: "Shadow Blue" with black ("Anthracite") leather interior.

I need some trophies for a silly "Ryder Cup-like" competition I'm holding in October. One main trophy with four little separate trophies (for each of the winning team members). Does anyone know where I can find such a trophy? Locally? Online? I am not sure where to begin. Ideally, the trophy would be somewhat cheesy, […]

I watched Passion of the Christ a few days ago, and frankly, I'm not sure what all the fuss was about. Do religious groups not realize that they come off as flaky when they condemn things like a movie as being a filthy piece of trash? How is it not saner for them to say […]

Now that I've got my HD TV and am somewhat settled down in the new house, I've signed up for NetFlix once again. I paid more before - $19.95 and $21.95. I rented 19 movies in three months, resulting in a pretty good savings over BlockBuster, and at the currently $17.99 pricing, it should be […]

My parents rented The Cutting Edge on VHS many, many years ago. I was sick or for some reason I was home alone, and my dad was deer hunting. I watched the movie three times in a row. Nothing else to do, right? "Toe pick" still makes me laugh, and I own the movie on […]

Pals, friends, and family: I have a new home phone number. It begins "814-833-xxxx" and the last four numbers I won't publish here, so email or IM and I'll pass the information along. Carey and I will prefer to speak on our home phone at any time over talking on our cell phones, of course, […]

Carey, having a full-time teaching position with Millcreek School District this fall, began looking for summer work in mid April. After all, we've got a new house! Cash is good, in any form. One of the first places she looked was at the Sylvan Learning Center on Peach Street here in Erie. Parents can send […]

I arrived in Providence, RI a bit late, but was quickly on my way in the rental car. It's got New York plates, and unlike when I went to North Carolina, they handed me the keys and said "cya tomorrow." And off I went. No 413-point inspection, just the keys. Traffic wasn't so spiffy, but […]

Sean Voisen has passed on to me the so-called "musical baton." Apparently, like Sean, I must oblige. Total size of music files on my computer: 57.14 GB (not too shabby, I guess). The last CD I bought was: Bleed Like Me by Garbage.

I am supposed to be cleaning right now. Instead, I'm cleaning my email. I'm re-organizing some folders, closing out some things, and getting rid of the mess. The next target: my address book. Then, tonight, I must get some writing done, despite the fact that Carey's here for the next few days. Oh boy. I'm […]

Anyone who knows me and needs my new cell phone number, please AIM or email me. The area code is 814, and I'm testing this one out to see how the coverage is in my area with the new service provider, Cellular One. The phone is a Motorola V555. I guess a slightly cheaper version […]

Screw Cingular. They did it again. Despite promises that for this last month, they would bump me up as necessary to a higher plan. $350 later, I'm calling bullshit on them. If Cingular can't offer me an awesome deal, I'm basically going to be cell-phone-less. I may even have to use Cellular One of all […]

Apparently, you can "thank George Lucas" for his work on Star Wars at thankyougeorge.com (via Aaron White). I'm not gonna sign my name to say thanks, but I will sign my name at "donotwritethedialogyourselfgeorge.com" if it ever comes online. 😛

Yes, I rated it 4 stars. It's not a bad tune. Poppy, but not "bad." Erik is listening to "Avenue of the Stars" by Jennifer Love Hewitt from the album "BareNaked" (2002). Erik has rated this song 4.0 stars and last played this song Tuesday, March 1, 2005 8:50:46pm. I'm without a car today, and […]

The Pope's personal impact on my life was rather minimal. I respect the work he did, and I was only mildly frustrated that, typical of US and world news coverage, we talked more about the great things the guy did after he'd died than in the past, y'know, eight months while he was dying. However, […]
