I’m Not Ignoring You

Friday, April 3rd, 2009

too_many_booksI’m just really busy trying to make things happen.

The hardest part is keeping my mind in focus on the tasks at hand. There’s so much really interesting shit I want to rant and babble about. I’ve been bothering my friend Bryan via email – knowing he’s busy himself and will just start bouncing off the walls when I send him more and more intellectual detritus gleaned from my ADD net wanderings.

True to form he’s been leaving big head shaped dents in the drywall of his house. I get to giggle and then carry on with my own attempts at creation.

Soon soon soon. So close. Almost. Very soon.

Cheers.

P. S. And, for no reason at all, here’s a picture of Henry Kissinger picking his nose and eating it.

Yummy!

The Bloggess – Derek Has A Problem

Tuesday, March 31st, 2009

One of the great things about Twitter is the amazing people you meet without ever having met them at all. One of these stellar individuals is Jenny Lawson aka The Bloggess.

Lawson co-writes Good Mom / Bad Mom for the Houston Chronicle but needs an “uncensored space to say the f-word and talk about ninjas”. That’s where the Bloggess comes in.

Her Bloggess posts are the most insanely hilarious things I’ve been reading – they never fail to make me snerd cheese with laughter – it is just pure, demented, jaw-droppingly funny genius.

Her post today was no exception – she discovered Xtranormal.com, a site where you can type in your script and it gets automagically animated – and this is her resulting oeuvre:

Be sure to read the remainder of her post because it’s a good indicator of the kind of spiraling stream of consciousness brain farts that just make me laugh out loud enough so the neighbours dog starts barking.

Cheers.

Probing For Old Posts

Thursday, February 26th, 2009

Slowly but surely I’m worming my way into the archives on the net and finding more of my old blog posts.

I may even have an older database file I can use to resurrect most of what was lost.

I’m very appreciative of the comments and other messages I’ve been getting from folks expressing their dismay at the loss of what used to be here and their suggestions for how to remedy the situation.

I think what I’ll do is create a separate archive area for the blog that used to be which can be visited from here. It’s a drag because it’ll fuck with my traffic stats but it’s not like I was racking up huge numbers to begin with. I average about 45,000 page hits a month – it rides in a steady sine wave between 30K and 60K – which is respectable but certainly not the basis for any sort of advertising based financial security.

For now, the other web site gets my full attention and when it’s ready to launch I’ll be sure to holler here and elsewhere. In the meantime, check out this cool ABC Nightline coverage about Twitter.

Cheers.

P. S. Thanks to Fred for sending me that photo. You can find more like that over at Digdads.

UPDATE: Just checked my web stats – cuz that’ what I always do when there are obviously more important things attempting to command my attention – and my web traffic literally doubled after I completely screwed everything. I should fuck up more often!
