Don't Insult the Man with the Rope: Archive

It's about time...

I haven’t been writing on here for a long time because I don’t really hit up the site on my laptop anymore. I’ve been getting all my content from my iPad app. Here’s the problem. My iPad app, till today, did not allow me to post new blogs. I have a better app now.

And so it begins...

I have a question for anyone out there reading… Has anyone noticed the huge number of spam messages starting to crop up here on Tumblr? Or am I just lucky to have avoided it this long?

Geniuses, really.

For those of you who get here from my Twitter account, you’ll already know something about this… The people I support are idiots. For those of us living in an era beyond AOL (you know, everyone had this service in the mid-late nineties), we know that once you send an email, that’s it. This is the reason why there are so many jokes/commercials/sitcoms that use the premise of...

On transmission fluid and lasers...

Today was certainly one of the more eventful days I’ve had in a long time… I seem to say that a lot lately. My day started out like any other — driving to work, getting into the daily grind, busting my ass with the local numbnuts that I deal with every day in Computer Services… then things completely went off on a tangent. Apparently, my father awakened this morning with...

“Hey, Tumblr, why do you say that I’ve got 5 followers, but only list 3?”

I'm a weird Tumblr user.

I’ve noticed that I’m one of the few Tumblr users who mostly posts text. Makes me wonder if I am some sort of freak. Then again, we know this already. I am. Anyway, here I sit at nearly 2am on the night that begins my weekend (yay for 4 day work weeks), and what happens? I get the urge to be freaking creative. Like I can do anything now!? You kidding me!? Argh. My camera battery...

Thinking out loud. Again.

Several months ago, I had a major disaster occur in the life of any geek. My primary external hard drive completely died. Not the typical, ‘run TestDisk and recover the partition’ death. Oh, no. It had to be the type of failure that would, if this were a movie, be referred to as epic. Nothing is recoverable without approximately $700 worth of work at an NYC-based data recovery...

Writing Fail

I wanted to write something more in-depth the other night. I really did. But I ran out if energy. Work at Stockton is kicking my ass. The forty minute commute each way isn’t bad, but with 8 hours of work in between and my perpetual insomnia, well, I think all if you can see where this is going. Truth is, I love my job, but I just love it more when I live closer to it. Hmmmmm, what else...

May 20th

On thinking...

Alright… Tonight I will be writing something more in depth, I think. I don’t know, it depends on if the bug gets me with inspiration.

It's been a long time...

I’m not even quite sure if I still exist on here, but obviously I do. It’s just been forever and a day since I’ve written on here. I know there are some who will yell at me for it, but … meh. Life’s been busy. I’ve been out at Stockton since September, and honestly it’s been the best 2 semesters of my life so far. I’ve made an amazing set of...

So, apparently...

Tumblr is being a pain in the ass. I tried to reblog someone, but… Well, as you can probably see, that did NOT go well… Long story short, essentially the post I was reblogging told the story of my day yesterday. It was spent with a very dear friend of mine, installing Windows 7 64-bit on both her machines… it went very smoothly, with the exception of one machine’s...

This weekend is going to be... eh.

This weekend was originally shaping up for awesomeness. My friend John, whom I haven’t seen in literally AGES, is coming down to my house on Thursday, then we were supposed to go up to my buddy Mike’s house for the weekend, then return back south till John went back on Tuesday. Nope. Not anymore. We’re still getting together, and we’re still going to Mike’s, but now...

Yes, I am blogging for no apparent reason...

Why the heck I’m even typing this, I don’t even know. My life today has been uneventful, in fact, downright BORING. But honestly, when the work isn’t coming in (which it hasn’t been lately), I am left to myself most of the day, being bored, surfing the web, and waiting impatiently for things to happen. I really need friends in my area, but I honestly don’t see that...

On my absence, and on being a chickenshit.

Wow, dumbass here just posted this with NOTHING in it…. hope someone out there actually READS this… Okay, so I’ve been absent from tumblr for a short while now…. my main reason is out of laziness. A short time back, my laptop, Mara, sustained extensive damage and I’ve been forced to my backup laptop, Kara. Of course, along with all this, I’ve lost all of my...

The Rules of Dan

For some odd reason, I’ve always had a set of ‘rules’ that have applied to my life. Some of them are more enforced than others… some of them are a bit difficult to enforce, but overall they apply quite nicely in my life. So far, only five exist, and I’ll list them here: Rule #1: No sleeping while there is a computer to fix. This is the most important of all the...

Windows is the bane of my existence...

… or why all my readers should run a flavor of Linux. I spent the better part of last night putting a new installation of Windows XP on a computer that my other half’s nephew owns — the hard drive had fried rather badly and I replaced it. No big deal, I’ve done this a thousand times. Well… after getting all the requisites installed (anti-virus, Firefox, Office,...

I've apparently been...

…far too quiet on here. I think that most of it stems from the fact that I’ve been running my tail off for the past week, and probably will continue to do so for at least the next 8 or 9 days. Why? Oh… plenty. I’m just going to leave it at that. I will say that I cannot wait for NYC. 8 days!

So, I have a first-generation netbook (literally, it’s the EeePC 701 - 2G Surf). For those of you who are unaware, the 2G stands for the size of the internal SSD hard drive — 2 gigabytes. And for the uninitiated, that is frakkin NOTHING nowadays. Being the Geek that I am, I couldn’t STAND the standard OS. Don’t get me wrong, Xandros was (and is) a nice Linux-based...

All this discussion...

… on my Facebook and whatnot about kids and children and spawning in general has just made me think even more about how many of my former classmates have gone and spawned. And even though I haven’t said it on Facebook, I’ll say it here: That is a really frakking SCARY thought. Why, you ask? Because most of those who have popped out spawn are the ones who NEVER should have...
