Nerd Hip-Hop, Flowing Like Han Solo

My favorite nerd core hip hop star MC FontalotM was on National Public Radio yesterday.

He's going to rule the world one day.

I was.

Most of america dressed up last monday (the one before the one yesterday) for an event known to many as Halloween. I on the other hand was not aware of this event, but as it turns out it saved me from charges of impersonating a doctor.

Now that I think about it, my plan to get free tongue depressors was pretty thin as it was.

I missed the parade (work) but Rocketboom attended and it was great.

You have to love Diesel sweeties

Cookie Dough Records

The thing reminds me of stomp, I've seen that play like 5 times.

I sorta lost the link I wanted to share, I searched my history relentlessly but to no avail. So I'm going to describe it to you and use some things I did save from the site.

This guy put speech bubbles on advertising around new york. Blank ones, about 15,000 of them. And then people wrote things on them and this guy took pictures.

You can download a pdf of some speech bubbles and print them out, post them around maybe.

WOOOHOO! I found the link. …

I was writing an email to my mother about different backup methods (I kid you not) and I thought some of it was useful. And before anyone says hardlinks or rsync, I know, I know. It's just there isn't any really good way to do that on windows and I'll take incremental drive images over 100,000 file hardlinks and rsyncs. I swear I'm going to run out of innodes before I run out of hard drive space.

You probably didn't notice, but the old gallery links broke for a few days. If you were linking to a picture that stopped working recently i'd go update your links. Or not. I don't plan on breaking the old link redirects again anytime soon.

Ever see anyone fold a paper airplane really fast infront of you? Well now you can have a flash app do it. I haven't tried any of the folds yet but they look really cool.

I should probably tell you all about a neat little firefox extention I found called Stumble!. (It's where all these links are comming from.) But I won't. Now now anyway.

FLY GUY

This is how video games used to be, back in the day.

Ahh nastalgia.

Modern Living / Neurotica series

This one I found reminds me of The Manhole a game a played on an old obscure cd rom based video game system that my parents got me because they wouldn't let me play regular videogames. To be fair she probably got a good deal on them. I hear it was a mac game.

I upgraded Roborooter's Gallery, it should fix a few bugs with uploading images, and overall performance.

Enjoy.

So the other day I saw the release of the ipod nano and thought to myself. "Steve, that's really cool but you're lying to me." I was wrong.

But.. it make me think of this movie I found. It's actually by a New York sketch comedy group called The Whitest Kids they've got some funny stuff.

I had a fine dandy day the other day at a club called Beyond in Philadelphia. There I saw The Dandy Warhols (best viewed with a webbrowser and 3d glasses) and they were quite amazing.

You can even listen to the whole album on their web site.

And you can see photos from a show I thought was the one I went to on this flickr slideshow

;-)

(OLD POST REVIVAL WARNING - This post originally intended to air on May 3rd but was never published. I finished it from some notes I left for myself and here it is in all it's patch worked glory. I apologize in advance for the break in flow, but there was almost a month lost somewhere in the middle. - And now months later I'm posting it.)

This past weekend I finally got out of the house and got to have some fun. I've been working.. a lot.
