more fun with work

well, work again, seeing as how its a weekday...

sadly i have nothing to report, as nothing particularly interesting happened over the weekend that i feel like telling you about...

but i'm currently happy because i remembered my mp3 player, and didn't forget it in the car like i always do...

thusly i am listening to pink floyd while finishing my work... very nice...

work sucks

well, as you all can probably tell by reading the timestamp on this post, its 5 oclock in the afternoon on a friday, and here i am...

anyways, i've spent pretty much the entire day in meetings or on the road to and from meetings... so i'm kinda burned out... i even got to go to an intro security briefing (the same one i went to when i started work here) to see if anything had changed... nothing has... so i had to listen to some guy blather on about all sorts of security stuff that i've been doing for almost a year now... ugh...

anyways, i just wanted to let you all know that tonight is the series finale of Stargate SG1. I don't remember if I bitched about the cancellation of SG1 back when i was doing the facebook notes, but alas, it seems that the end of televised SG1 is finally upon us. Well, I've already seen it, and won't be able to watch it tonight, so it doesn't really end tonight for me... but i'd suggest watching it... its a pretty good episode...

also, the stargate atlantis episode is pretty good as well... it introduces the new doctor, after the old one (the awesome scottish dude Carson Beckett) got blowed up by an assploding tumor... talk about ways to go... and anyways the new doctor is played by Jewel Staite, who you might recognize as Kaylee from Firefly and Serenity. The latest in a long line of Firefly actors who have ended up on Stargate: Jayne's Adam Baldwin as Col. Dixon on the SG1 episodes Heroes parts 1 and 2, Inara's Morena Baccarin as Adria throughout SG1 Season 10. (Is it sad that i knew that off the top of my head, and didn't have to look it up?) There might be some more, but I can't remember them right now. Its friday at 5, and my brain isn't working properly...

Peace, I'm out...

well... here i am

well, i don't really feel like updating this thing, because i have nothing in particular to say...

i attempted to make some snide comment about the guy who tried to pimp his blog in the scott speed sucks report, but my internet decided it didn't want me doing that...

so, instead i shall say nothing at all...

Scott Speed Still Sucks

Scott Speed managed to have a whopping two people suck more than him in Last Weekend's Indianapolis Grand Prix. He finished 13th out of 15 finishers.

But still, Scott Speed Sucks.

Dan's take on the outcome:

Well at least he finished... that's something...

nothing to report

well, as i stated in my last post, i hadn't gone to the store and thus didn't have any carrots. I still haven't and don't...

and something over the weekend prompted me to think that i should break my silence about that travesty of a concert i went to with su, but i can't remember, so therefore i shan't (or perhaps to continue with the random stargate references: shalln't)

Scott Speed Sucks Report

Formula 1 Driver Scott Speed crashed out on Lap 8 attempting an extremely optimistic pass, getting shunted off track and breaking his car.

He sucks.

No carrots

Well, alas, today i have nothing really interesting to report. other than its raining, and the power keeps going out for a few seconds... which is all well and good, except for the fact that all of our computers have Uninteruptable Power Supplies... while these UPSs might seem to be a good thing at first glance, they have the annoying tendency to beep whenever the power goes out, and they're running on battery power... which is happening a distressing amount. Which is one of the reasons i decided to do some work in my office, as opposed to the lab where i'm surrounded by beeping monstrosities...

and i don't have any carrots left... didn't feel like going to the store over the weekend, so i am fresh out... perhaps i shall go to the store tonight after work... we'll see how i feel...

oh, and Fohdner... best word ever... not really sure how to pronounce it, but its amazing... and now for a contest... first person who identifies where that word comes from doesn't get kicked in the crotch... unless its rob, where upon he still gets kicked in the crotch, only less... assuming i ever see him again... and just as a tip, the "o" sound in that word is a long O, sounding like the exclamation "oh!".
