The President is behind the times

Blogger has apparently supported jump links for over a year and I just found out about it today. D'oh. I've gone back and updated all of my lengthier posts to use them, so there shouldn't be any more garbage like this cluttering up the main page.

Also, I took advantage of another feature that Blogger added months ago and checked my blog stats today. I now have conclusive evidence that I am not the only person who has visited my blog. The page hit count is pathetically low, but it is nevertheless greater than I expected. Perhaps people were looking for a San Diego Flute Guild blog and guessed poorly.

Casting my vote

If they aren't willing to use "East" and "West," the Big Twelve Ten should call their divisions "Big Two" and "Little Eight."

Foortbrawwgh 2010

I have resolved to watch at least a quarter of every bowl game this year. I highly doubt that I will be able to meet that resolution, given that I intend to go visit people at some point in the next two weeks rather than spending all of my time on the couch, but I will do my best.

This post will be updated with impressions of each game.

Spider/Centipede Log

Keeping score.

• 2010-12-15: 2 spiders.
• 2010-12-16: 1 spider.
• 2010-12-17: 2 spiders.
• 2010-12-28: 1 silverfish (a new challenger approaches).
• 2011-01-01: 1 spider so big that I thought it was a small centipede when I first saw it.
• 2011-01-05: 1 spider.
• 2011-01-06: 1 centipede.
• 2011-01-09: 1 spider. The really frustrating thing is that I have no idea what they're eating, so I can't control them by cutting off their food supply. It seems like I just have more centipedes and spiders.
• 2011-01-11: 2 spiders.
• 2011-01-12: 4 spiders. I got a call from the producers of some show on A&E, asking if I wanted to do a guest spot.
• 2011-01-13: 2 spiders. Have you ever used the toilet and gotten up to discover that there was a spider sitting on the underside of the lid? I have now. They look like they could be fiddlebacks, too...
• 2011-01-18: 2 spiders.
• 2011-01-20: 1 spider.
• 2011-01-22: 1 silverfish.

Holiday Fear

Let's get to the point.

I sometimes use tvguide.com to see what's on TV.

What the hell is that?

Giving up; moving on

I just saw a commercial for pistachios where a Keyboard Cat doppelganger cracked a pistachio open while playing the keyboard.

I'm gonna go invent a new subculture that hasn't been ruined yet.
