Whoa, I'm actually up early on a Saturday. Time for some coffee.

I feel kind of bad cause I woke up at 12:20 pm Friday. Half the day was gone already. And now it's 3:30 in the morning and I just know I'm going to oversleep. But I can't! I have to get up early and work on my 2 projects that are due at 5:00 pm Monday, and study for the final for that class on Tuesday. Doh!

How cool, George Bush Jr. has a blog now. There might even be cool links I'd want to steal.

Chicken's Head Found In Fast Food Order. Ewwwww....How much you want to bet she tries to sell it on eBay?

The coolest thing happened in my astronomy class today. The professor pulled down a blackboard to write something, and on the board beneath that we could see the top half of "UCK BUSH". The whole class was cracking up. I thought it would be cool if the previous professor wrote that.

A few weeks ago I filled out a survey for a free lava lamp at Lavaworld. Well, it was too good to be true cause a few days later they emailed me saying that I'm not getting a free lava lamp(probably cause too many people tried to get one). Instead they offered free shipping or something like that. So today the UPS man knocks on the door and guess what he had? That's right, a shiny, red and yellow lava lamp. Sweet. It's going in the living room cause I already have one on my desk. Man, I love free stuff.

You ever see those old Ms. Pac-Man tabletop machines? Some dude decided to build his own, and it looks very impressive.

Tapioca milk tea creating waves as fun coffee alternative. Geez, it's about time mainstream America caught on to this. I've been drinking that stuff for at least 2 years now, and although it's really popular among Asians, I've always wondered why it isn't more popular.

Whoa, the week's half over and I almost missed Simpsons Week at Daily Radar. You can't miss The 50 Greatest Moments in Simpsons History, and The 15 Greatest Homer Simpson Quotes Ever.

Here's an interesting article about male nude models and what they do if they get a stiffy. I've always wondered if that ever happens. Good lord, how embarassing.

Even the Forbidden City has a $tarbuck$ now. I guess no place is safe.

I turned in my half-finished program this morning(well, yesterday morning). Man, it feels so good to get that off my chest, even though I'll probably get a shitty score on it. I spent the rest of the day relaxing and goofing off. Damn, and now it's 1:45. I was planning to go to bed at 1:00. Tomorrow morning(er, today morning) I have to go to the lab with my group to "present" our program from my other CS class. That's gonna suck.

Ars Technica is one of my favorite sites for computer stuff. Anyway, BBSpot has a parody called AOL Technica. You can probably guess what it's about. Heh heh, check out those articles on the side:

Mac OS: It's like Windows for Apple

NT is Way Too Complicated

What's That Clicky Thing?

I really have to admire anyone who builds a kit spacecraft and actually goes into space in it. I don't even trust patches that I sew on myself.

Just in time for Xmas, it's the top 10 mp3 portables. Personally, I'm looking for an mp3 player for my car, although I wouldn't mind if someone got me a portable (hint hint).

On eBay, this dude was selling his entire videogame collection, including the NES, Genesis, Turbografx 16, Neo-Geo, Super Nintendo, a couple hundred games, and a ton more stuff. If he could sell all that used stuff for $70,000, imagine how much he paid for it originally. Geez, some people have too much money. They should give some to me. Then everybody would be happy.

There's some wicked fog right now. I literally can't see across the street. Earlier tonight the fog was lingering at the edge of the street, like it was afraid to cross it. And now it's finally starting to float across, heading towards my apartment. It's kind of creepy, like that scene in Sleepy Hollow when the fog snuffs out the torches.

Yup, I'm still working on the program. Still doesn't work either. Hmmm...I think I'll work on it a little longer and then quit.

After working 18 hours on my program, I've decided, fuck it. Stupid program can kiss my black ass. I'm gonna get it to mostly work and turn it in. Besides, my lowest homework score gets dropped. I just have to do really good on the next 2 homeworks and I'll be okay. Stupid program.

Futurama quote of the week:

Lots of very cool computers powered by Transmeta's Crusoe processor were shown at Comdex. Check out how small that Casio laptop is. I have no real reason to get a laptop, but I really want one now.

Yikes! Scary stuff: Sumo wrestlers dressed up as Sailor Moon characters.

I'm back. My Thanksgiving was rather boring. I didn't have my computer or anything at home so I sat around watching TV. Rented a few movies too, Chicken Run, Frequency, and X-Men. Now I have an assignment due Tuesday so I better get to work.
