I'm currently trying the “buy good coffee and add flavored syrups to get a better cup of flavored coffee” approach. However, what I find is that I'm getting a sweet cup of coffee (I take mine with milk and no sugar). Does anyone have any suggestions on less-sweet flavor syrups? I'm currently using Dolce syrups, [...]

Liz just informed me that if you google for “seven moons” RI (the seven moons must be in quotes), on the second page is a link to my LJ. I feel special.

Just when I thought that The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen was the worst move ever, I rented Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow. Nice CG, no plot.

One of the side effects of working from home and having a TiVo is that you see a lot of commercials (because you tend to just let it run while you're working). Of course, when watching this much TV (mostly SciFi, History Channel, and SpikeTV), you realize that every third commercial is the

What are folks doing today? I ordered some coffee and flavored syrups from CoffeeAM. I'm watching silly movies of Lizzy's choosing (Win a date with Tad Hamilton, 13 going on 30, etc.), and am going to work on some models and stuff (back to putting together my Tau army).
Oh, and I'm authoring a set [...]

Okay, so the Mac Mini (aka headless Mac) is out and I have to say that Apple is toying with my emotions. On the one hand, kudos to them. Looks like a solid machine, at a price point that most folks can handle (at $500, you might even get into the senior citizens market). That [...]

For all you folks who played XCOM: UFO Defense and XCOM: Terror From The Deep, check out UFO: Aftermath. It has no affiliation with XCOM, but is kind of the same sort of deal (Aliens are coming and you have to save the world). It's a “real time turn based” tactical game (if that makes [...]

Sorry I've been gone for so long. Blame the holidays, video games, and nothing much to say. However, I've found something to talk about:
When walking to the Wakefield mall Staples from the parking lot, I saw a wonderful poster in the bus shelter that lead one to believe that merely getting caught with alcohol under [...]
