We'd like to know a little bit about you for our files...

What's so cool about this site is that you can find an amazing amount of info about anyone you want, FOR FREE.

The scary thing about this site is that, for free, anyone can find out an amazing amount of info about YOU. And there's not much you can do about it. Really, try to opt out. I'm still working on it.

www.zabasearch.com

They maintain that because the info is all public that they are perfectly legal. But they have taken the info that is parsed out and put it all together so it makes perfect sense to psycho exs and ID thiefs alike! Whoo Hoo...

So, um, where are we going and why are we in this handbasket? huh?

I found I did far too well on this quiz. I didn't think I spent THAT much time in the arcade as a kid. God, I have a Ms. Pacman craving now!

In my opinion, -isms not good are

I don't really do movie reviews. And I don't want to write spoilers but I had to make this comment after seeing the latest (last) Star Wars.

"Do or do not. There is no try."

THAT my friends is as cool as it comes. Many people have lived their lives around such a quote. It defines why Yoda was such a popular character to begin with.

While getting to see him kick serious ass in the earlier episodes is fun. Tired of Yoda-isms I got.

"Not if anything to say about it I have." ? ? ?

Really? You thought that would be a good line did ya George? Sigh.

But other than that...go see the movie. Preferably with THX.

And a side order of death, please.

Perhaps I'm just taking my work home with me but I loved this site...
What horrible Edward Gorey Death will you die?

Fit fit fits.
You will perish of fits. Repeat this to yourself:
"Things can work out even if I don't get
my way. Things can work out even...."

Root, Root, Root for the Roman Empire...

So tonight the Yankees decended upon Seattle. The outcome was much to be expected. Safeco was overrun with displaced New Yorkers (which I can forgive...home team, blah blah) and the epitome of evil... Yankees fans from anywhere else. Really, you just pick a team to root for because you belive they will win every time? Where else does that happen?

Is there a TicketMaster fan club?
Do geeks love the Borg for more than their cool make-up?
Do kids grow up and say "I want to work for the IRS"?

And most of all why does Jeter have to fight for supremacy every October while we are stuck with Dubya for another three?

Sigh.

So not punk...

A quote attributed to Billie Joe from Green Day goes something like this:

"A guy walks up to me and asks 'What's Punk?'. So I kick over a garbage can and say 'That's punk!'. So he kicks over the garbage can and says 'That's Punk?', and I say 'No that's trendy!'

Who ever said it illustrates my current predicament. Or maybe not even...since I'm, like, the umpteenth person I know to start a blog. I'm so past trendy that I might, in fact, kill the entire concept of blogging all together. Don't say you haven't been warned.

So what do we do here? I'm not sure. I know that I'm not going to go out of my way to bring attention to my blog by actually telling anyone about it or anything. At least not yet.

Wow. I have a blog. ok.
