Originally published at Kickin’ the new Kuh-nowledge. You can comment here or there. I’m seriously considering a folding bicycle. When I first started looking for one, I wasn’t quite sure what I wanted… but thanks to the power of the intorwebs, I have found several options…. 1. Downtube (http://www.downtube.com): The model I’m looking at is…
Liz is in Orlando
Liz is in Orlando… so all you Orlando peeps should try and hang out. She’ll be there for a week or so. I miss her already. 🙁 I’ll be down for a visit sometime this winter though… with Liz. See you then. (I’m personally looking forward to visiting my sis in Jax). 🙂 In other…
“High Speed” Internet…
I don’t have cable TV, but I do have a landline phone so instead of cable internet, I have DSL. Well, lately it’s been dog-ass slow. And today I decided to check the speed out. We were cruising at a miserly 300kbps. Which, yes, is a lot faster than a modem, but it ain’t no…
Questions for D&D Minis Championship Interviews

The schedule is killing me… (slowly)
I thought I was tough (I coulda’ been a contender?) I thought I could take a lot of shit, and it appears that I can take a lot, but my one year anniversary in Illinois is fast approaching, and it hasn’t gotten any easier. I must say the whole commute to Chicago every week is…
Super Addictive Word Association
OK… This is fun, and by that I mean it eats your brain for a few days… You should definitely do this with other people… it’s impossible to get on your own unless you’re a glutton for punishment. http://shygypsy.com/farm/p.cgi Good Luck! –sam
Quick Review: Queen & Country
Finally had an opportunity to sit and read Queen & Country: Operation: Broken Ground, a modern spy comic book series by Greg Rucka and Steve Rolston. Greg Rucka is a fantastic writer that made his debut with the thriller mini-series, Whiteout. Rolston is a bit of an odd choice for this story. His clean lines…
