My dorm’s check-in is on August 27th, but we’re heading up a day early. So that’s actually just ten days away.

I’m going to miss my family, friends, and my amazing dog Sparky, but I’ve been waiting to go to college for my whole life and already had to delay it a year because of my health.

It’s almost time. I can hardly wait.

Granted, there’s a certain expectation of sass from the people who go on television court that would never be allowed at all in more traditional courtroom settings, but as you’ll see, this fellow was an exceptional moron. And don’t forget that he apparently went to law school for two years, too. If I were a judge and somebody did to me what this guy did to her, I’d shut him up and warn him that he risked being held in contempt. Then I’d give him basically the same scathing lecture that Judge Millian did. And feel awesome.

Enough blabber! The video speaks for itself anyway. Enjoy.

Hell. Yes. So basically, Judge Millian is my hero for the day.

As a real quick unrelated note just to get it out of the way, Krystal and I have split up. We talked about things and agreed that it would be best if we were just friends again. Since we still like each other as friends and all and feel pretty much the same way about it, we’re just going to be cool and skip the whole “awkward avoidance phase.” There’s still anime to watch and cookies to eat, after all. So there you go. No drama; just friendship. We will now resume our regularly scheduled internet.

Also, you might want to bookmark it so that you can have something on hand to show people that ask you how they should secure thier computers, or when they ask for recommendations on the first things they should install when they buy a new computer, or whatever. It’s nice to be able to just have one thing to link them to so that they can help themselves.

Sure, I’m partial to my own article, heh. But I really do hope that you find it helpful whether you use it yourself or save it to give to others.

I wish we had a Ninja Parade in Coronado. How hard do you think it would be to pull off? You could basically just put the fliers up, and then do nothing but show up with a lawn chair and talk about how awesome it is.

Man, I love The Onion.

We’re back from Canada. Montreal and Quebec were absolutely amazing. Robert is a very, very hardcore traveller, but that’s good because we hit pretty much every part of every city and got to see everything in between the destinations too since we walked so much (he’s a backpacker after all). Loved it. This trip has only intensified my love of Canada. If you’ve never been, fix that.

Anyway, Robert is putting together an account of our adventures in Vermont and Canada that I’ll post up here when he finishes. For now though, here are a few pictures from his fancy high-end camera, which have only been edited to make them smaller for the computer. Click to see larger version. (If anybody would like to see much, much higher resolution versions of these or other pictures, just poke me.)

I’m coming home Monday night. It’ll be great to sleep in my own bed again with Sparky at my side.

Anyway, this is by a guy named John Su and the work below is his “Art Meme” (for crying out loud, it’s just a meme, and it’s still that good). Check out the rest of his gallery too while you’re at it. So good. Rawr.

Anyway, he thought that Visual Flavor sounded like an excellent idea. In fact, I guess he liked it enough that he offered to write about it on his blog whenever we’re ready to make our debut.

All I need to do now is crack some knuckles and catch up with Visual Flavor work. Heh heh.

Aside from just being catchy in general, the lyrics are pretty interesting, too, both in terms of word play and intriguing meanings. Enjoy!

Supertramp – The Logical Song Lyrics

When I was young
It seemed that life was so wonderful
A miracle, oh it was beautiful, magical
And all the birds in the trees
Well they’d be singing so happily
Oh joyfully, oh playfully watching me
But then they sent me away
To teach me how to be sensible
Logical, oh responsible, practical
And they showed me a world
Where I could be so dependable
Oh clinical, oh intellectual, cynical

There are times when all the world’s asleep
The questions run too deep
For such a simple man
Won’t you please, please tell me what we’ve learned
I know it sounds absurd
But please tell me who I am

Now watch what you say
Or they’ll be calling you a radical
A liberal, oh fanatical, criminal
Oh won’t you sign up your name
We’d like to feel you’re
Acceptable, respectable, oh presentable, a vegetable

At night when all the world’s asleep
The questions run soo deep
For such a simple man
Won’t you please, please tell me what we’ve learned
I know it sounds absurd
But please tell me who I am, who I am, who I am, who I am

*Actually, every time you get or view something on the internet, you download it and it’s stored temporarily. But shhh.

Gold, I tell you.
