awards for michael

i've known who michael moore is for longer than he has been a household name. back in the late 1970's, i used to go with my parents to see harry chapin when he came to flint. michael used to help set up the shows. he is older than me, but howard and martha remember having him as a student in their classes. i remember when roger and me came out. it was weird seeing your hometown on the movie screen, and worse than that, a hometown that looks nothing like you remembered it to be. over the … [Read more...]

daisy, SPEAK!

i have been trying to teach daisy to "speak", using food. so she will cry, if there is food around and she wants some. yes, i know this is very stupid. extreemely stupid. but now, some guy in japan has invented this device that will allow you to hear what your dog is thinking. can you imagine? this device translates dog barks into human language... now, i don't know if this will help me get into daisy's brain or not. she is just not a very verbal dog. but jazz, mar's dog is very verbal. … [Read more...]

mascara?

this morning i was getting ready for work, and i started to sneeze. i'm sure something is in bloom. anyway, i said to myself, wait, don't put on your mascara until after the teary eyes stop. so, here i am at work... no mascara. see one of the "problems" of being a natural blond type is that your eyelashes are blond too... so no one can see my beautifly long eyelashes... i feel so naked. i might have to stop at the store and get some at lunch. i feel so vain right now. who cares about … [Read more...]

boo rattlers!

this sunday, march 23, the san jose sabercats face the arizona rattlers at the san jose arena. this is a rematch of last years arena bowl, where as was expected, the sabercats crushed the rattlers. now when the rattlers come to town, the arena is filled with fans that boo the rattlers. they heckle hunkie cooper, who is (i hate to admit this) one of the best arena football players in the league. they call the players names and yell at the coaches. sabercats fans love to hate the rattlers. … [Read more...]

bye, bye gigglechick :(

my most favorite of blogs, gigglechick has decided to give blogging a break. i can't say that i blame her. some fool made a link to her pictures on a restricted bulletin board of some sort... others requested that she "censor" pictures that she took, and were insulted that they weren't clear. HELLO? this is her blog. she can do what she wants, and if you don't like it, don't read it. it is her right, just like it is my right to vent about mm, and stephen. if they don't like it, they can … [Read more...]

war?  why?  remind me.

i got home from a busy day of cold fusion coding to find that the first targeted missles had hit bagdad. i really don't understand why we are at war. i understand the need to protect our country, and i understand that saddam is, well ok, insane. but, why now? why when there are so many other issues at home? how many other people need to be laid off and out of work for years? shouldn't mr. bush be paying more attention to homeland issues? why are we fighting his fathers war? there has to … [Read more...]

nigerian scams now have an answer!

pioneer press It's a bit long but worth it. You'll want to copy and paste this as your reply to the next scam offers you receive: Dear Mr. whoever... 1) Since you are the one making the proposal, and I am the one who has been approached by you, and my cooperation is only as an accommodation to your request (to result in my 30% share of the amount to be transferred into an account prepared for you), this means that 2) I will in no way, and under no circumstances, forward or transfer any funds … [Read more...]

i am now officially an employee of san jose state university. my first day was a good day, st. patricks day. i spent the day working on a fake press kit for a center that doesn't exist. most of my work will be thrown away. funny, isn't it. i'm working really hard on a project that will end up in the garbage in 2 weeks or so. here is the illegal stuff i'm working on... the business week cover came out great! i hope it sells mr. boccardo! we need him to donate like 1.4 million to make this … [Read more...]
