To the Goober on the CrotchRocket

Nice move today on the way home. You really impressed me by zipping between the cars today during rush-hour. I guess you didn’t read that part in the manual where it mentioned that it was illegal in Missouri. I liked how you passed me on the right, just as the acceleration lane merged with the highway. I also noticed that you didn’t have a licence plate. I guess that must have fallen off. But kudo’s to you for wearing your leathers and helmet. Most of your kind wear t-shirts and flip-flops. I guess you’re not as dumb as you look. Of course, I was able to notice all these things in the split second you were in my sight. I guess I was the one paying more attention to my fellow citizens, as we all tried to get safely home.

My father also thanks you, as his insurance on his bike will go up again. That is, once you cream yourself while standing on your seat trying to impress that ‘chick’ in the convertible.

My friend also thanks you, as he was killed riding a motorcycle. You’ve just falely reconfirmed that motorcycles are dangerous to everyone around you today.

Nerd Father

According to this Blog, I’m a natural when it comes to being a good Father. It’s in my Geek Genes™

“9. SMART IS COOL. Having a Geek for a father instills the message into your children that smart is cool. They idolize Daddy. Hopefully, they’ll want to grow up to be just like him.”

PSP = PowerStone Portable

According to Gaming Horizon Capcom is releasing a PSP port of the great Dreamcast game PowerStone. Not just the first PowerStone, but both 1 and 2! When I picked up my Dreamcast (about a year ago!) PowerStone was instantly one of my favorite games. It’s a multi-player fighting game, similar to the ever popular Super Smash Bros. on the GameCube. It’s offically going on the list!

Randomness

I figured out how to use some php to allow for random Banners. Check it out! Hit refresh a few times. It was really easy to set up, once I figured out that I had typed “random.php” instead of “rotator.php”.

Edit: If you’d like to use the php on your own site, you can download it from Automatic.

Nanolicious

The 1gb nano is perfect. Good price, nice size, and it feels good in your hand. It still amazes me when I hold mine and think that something this small has 4gb of storage. When the first iPod came out I thought it was small! That may make me sound old, but it’s true.

Honestly, I can’t find one flaw with the current iPod line. Apple has hit the sweet spot in regards to their price point. That said, are we on the verge of total iPod saturation? Is the word “iPod” going to join the vernacular such as Kleenex and Q-Tip? (Funny how both those examples are personal hygiene items)
The educational price for the 1gb is only $129 bucks, which is cheap for such a slick piece of technology.

But then again, I’ve already drank the Kool-Aid. (another Trademarked name)
