feeling :: extremely pissed off. matchbox just completely cancelled the concert that they said they’d make up. They, well meaning Adam Gaynor, said it live, then on the radio the next morning, then Rob Thomas says it on their official discussion board, now I’m hearing from a freakin’ fanclub president that the show is cancelled. At least I can easily get my money back. I hope. And I doubt I’ll be buying it again if shit like this can happen.
wondering if :: breaking Tarantino’s upcoming movie, Kill Bill, into two parts is a good idea or not.
amazed that :: someone set the world record in Donkey Kong: 947,200 points…which far surpasses my high score of 150.
did you know :: Richard Millhouse Nixon was the first US president whose name contains all the letters from the word “criminal.” The second was William Jefferson Clinton. How about these other strange facts…
the real reason for the Internet :: On Dave Barry’s blog, he kindly asks everyone to submit a poem to poetry.com, using the first name “Freemont” and submitting a poem with the words, “the dog ate mother’s toe.” Oh, don’t worry about ruining the integrity of a site which will publish a book of winning poetry and sell it to you. Here’s my entry, grab a hankerchief…
Ode To The Toes
only a canine knows,
the true story of her woe,
when the pain and anguish flows,
and the scream frightens the crows.
for this i regretfully bestow,
to annouce that the dog ate mother’s toes.

in case you can’t tell the difference :: between Hadrig and Hedwig, here’s a Harry Potter etymology site. Quite in depth, too.
apparently there’s not much to do :: in Finland, home of the 4th Mobile Phone Throwing World Championships.
getting all teary-eyed reading :: Gamespy’s celebration of the 20th anniversary of the Nintendo Family Computer, better known as Famicom, then better known as the NES.
boycott :: Fox’s new show, Banzai. Why? Well, read this…
The FOX television network’s decision to broadcast and promote the TV show “Banzai” shows a blatant disregard for the consequences and power of racial media stereotypes. Asian American children are especially susceptible to the taunts and ostracism of their peers, who are likely to be entertained by the show’s simplistic comedy premises and fast pace, but are unlikely to have developed the critical facilities necessary to reject the stereotypes presented.
