Ladies, get out your tampons! We’re closing in on 2013, the Mayans predicted the end of the world, and now the last installment of Twilight is airing in local cinemas. Yay! .. slashing my wrists in anticipation. Since Lady C read the books (and hated them), she insisted I had to go to the first […]

Why Socialism Isn't Wrong
Encountering an American that is pro-socialism means that you have either lost your way in hippy-alley or found a true Communist. It is always with a bit of wary that socialism is discussed, and it is always dismissed at the end of the debate, often as being less free. I want to show why socialism […]
Music from our time in Habana, Cuba 2003
Here’s a list of music videos that me and my friends in ANCEP/Gateway College listened to while we stayed in Habana del Este, Cuba, for three months in the fall of 2003. Sometimes, music can wake old memories to life. There are some really great songs in there! .. and some really shitty ones. Enjoy! […]
Elvis done joined the po-pos yo!
Me and Elvis were throwing ball in the park not a stone toss from where we live, when we teamed up with a six-month old bitch (canine) who were extremely insecure and immediately threw herself down, belly up. Usually, it’s Elvis that perform this more than friendly ritual, so naturally, it was an exciting encounter. […]

I have the body of a God..
Yes, it’s true… too bad it’s Buddha. Rub my belly for luck! I’m sitting in the kitchen having a beer and listening to the GNU World Order, while Lady C is having a dinner party with a gang of girls, and I thought I’d drop a note. Or an egg. Or an Eggdrop! Because I’m […]
Today I made a bargain!
I study philosophy at the University full-time these days, spending quite a few days in the library of humanities. There be dragons, Latin bolstering nerds and frustrated art students lingering for decades like dusty old clothing.. And free stuff! The library strives to keep a current collection of literary material, and regularly place out-of-circulation books […]
Stop feeding Little Brother
The next time people ask me why I don’t use Facebook, I’ll show them this:
Linksys DIR-825 B1 EU firmware
If you are anything like me, you can’t help fiddling with stuff that works, in order to make it stop working. Last night, as the grand finale of a major network overhaul (we now have 2 networks at home, different IP ranges, but with cross-communication) I decided to check for firmware updates for my DIR-825 […]
