Yes, the Philadelphia Phillies won the World Series, Barack Obama is four days away from possibly becoming the next president of the United States – but I submit that this is even bigger than the two: The United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit handed down In re Bilski and Warsaw and… the [...]
…and I didn’t even know it until Lisa told me. I felt guilty so I watch a few minutes of people celebrating. Seemed kind of anti-climatic really, after all the turbulence of the last few days, but I’m excited. Not for the Phillies specifically, but for all the tangential things. 1. Jamie Moyer is 45 [...]
Lisa lost a bet. She played as a ‘human cleric’ by the name of Naomi. And by posting this pic, I think I just outed Michael and Ray.
As I previously mentioned, the old radio was making a horrific noise and it was getting nigh unusable. To that end, I bought a new radio: the Clarion FB275BTB. I managed to acquire it for a mere pittance, brand new. Generally a new purchase has to be screened by Lisa, in that whatever annoys me [...]
Firstly, congratulations to the Phillies for beating the Dodgers and making it to the World Series. — I don’t think there was anything more riveting last night than the presidential debate. The level to which it was stunning is probably immeasurable. There’s so much I want to say about it, so forgive me if this [...]
If the movie Max Payne, which opens this Friday, is bad how would you know? Max Payne (the game) is an action shooter whose storyline was designed to be super cliched with a noir feel.

They were taking their anger out surreptitiously in random corners of the house. We got the message. The new [...]
You grasp and claw your way through the week and finally! It’s Friday. I much prefer the spring to the fall; it only gets colder from here on out. And crap starts breaking after all the intense heat of summer and the contraction from cold and dew overnight… oye. Song currently stuck in my head [...]
If you’ve read the baby blog, you’ll know that last weekend Nora, Lisa and I went to see Bonnie and James’ wedding. They’ve been together as long as Lisa and I have been, so it we were absolutely overjoyed to be part of their wedding. Lisa had the distinct honor of being in Bonnie’s wedding [...]
First and foremost, I have to share this youtube video. — Japan’s Wii lineup was announced, and there’s actually quite a few games to get excited. Video here. Some of the most notable ones are Samba di Amigo (you can buy the maracas attachment for $15), Wii Music, Punch Out (finally, a better boxing game!), [...]
