I've decided to limit my Blender features to one per month. Let's see if that raises a storm of protest. 99-5-3 --- Taking a stab at commuting via T. Though Mo dropped me off at Alewife, so maybe it doesn't really count. I'm worried about work and the sportsman's project. Dmitri taking the lead means we have to do all the tech stuff his way, yet I'm the only one who knows what the damn thing is supposed to look like. All this work for such a crappy website- I hope my database plan is enough to deal with the significant crapitude. 99-5-6 --- Two people, seemingly sound asleep on the T, wake instantly when Alewife is announced. 99-5-6 --- Man, I'm not runnng into enough amusing quotes these days. Told Len my concerns about the project in a long e-mail. Reading Twain's Life on The Mississippi- good stuff, easier than I expected to read, great understatement. It felt odd reading Wired news on my Pilot than switching to my dad's 1901 edition of that book on the way home. 99-5-10 --- A slipping gear could let your M203 grenade launcher fire when you least expect it. That would make you quite unpopular in what's left of your unit. --In the August 1993 issue of PS magazine, the Army's magazine of preventive maintenance --- Sometimes I can't believe how explicit my mom is in her desire for me to get married and have kids. 99-5-11 --- This site was made possible by a grant from Atlantic Puppy-Grinding Company. "It may be cruel, but think of the jobs!" --http://members.tripod.com/~tzimisce69/ --- "The voters are not always smart. They're not always intelligent about the issues." --Jesse "The Governer" Ventura --- "You cannot move mountains if you believe them to be mountains. You must think of them as collections of small stones, which can be moved one at a time, and then reassembled." --The Tao of Meow --- A slight bit of hope for our culture: we still have and use old-fashioned newspaper vending machines. 99-5-12 --- Family neigborhood, lots of kids, but the adults are the unsmilingest bunch of mother fuckers I've seen. 99-5-12 --- They have treelawns, however. 99-5-13 --- Sportsman's Guide feels like it might be doomed doomed doomed. 99-5-13 --- "Don't think of it as programming. think of it as warfare." Dmitry Orlov,99-5-13 --- "What is it with this chick, she have beer flavored nipples?" --10 Things I Hate About You --- "A dead man could get up a better legend than this one. I don't mean a fresh dead man either; I mean a man that's been dead weeks and weeks." --Mark Twain, Life on the Mississippi --- "i'm just a walking mountain of testosterone. Step off." 99-5-15, Dylan's Goodbye Brunch --- "Dixie to Cicero: The Jazz Migration" [...] Songs include: "She Be Big, Maybe Too Big Blues," "Can I Has Yo Fish?", and the classic "Wha's Dis on Yo Shoe?" --Humans --- Really looking forward to this beer with Paul. He's always played this odd kind of mentor role for me. I'm not always sure what to make of that, but I'll really miss him when he goes off to Michigan. 99-5-19 --- Tomorrow Dylan starts his journey to California. Makes me kind of sad. Even if we barely saw each other during high school and college, the last couple years have been good. The boy needs romance, thoughthis is one hell of a distance to go get it. 99-5-21 --- Dreamt of a videogame last night called "Mario & Luigi".... they were the bad guys chasing my character on these jungle looking levels, and then I was really screwed when they came out riding a big (fire breathing) dinosaur. 99-5-22 --- "Your life would be very empty if you had nothing to regret." TWENTY PAST MIDNIGHT, 99-5-22 --- "Why do you suppose we only feel compelled to chase the ones who run away?" "Immaturity?" --Dangerous Liason --- Of course, degeneration is programmed into our DNA: Nature seems to want us to reproduce and then fall by the wayside. But your generation wants to hang onto its youth into its 90s, on the theory that if you stay around long enough maybe you can get your life together. --Mr. Blue |
