Links N’ Junk 5

By Rey | Published: July 31, 2006
Apple: I’ve long said that Apple’s OS software and computer are woefully flawed. But I’ve also been preaching the gospel of the iPod. The iProducts is probably the most powerful contribution that Apple is offering to enter-tech. That being said, maybe the iPhone is more than a dream. Art: I love and hate great designers. [...]

Obnoxious Iconography

By Rey | Published: July 28, 2006
Not that kind, this kind: I hate myself for doing it but I keep seeing sites with these little icons like “Firefox Rules” or “I Am A Blogger” or “BlogLines4Ever” or “Pro-BLOG!” so I figured I’d jump in the action with some icon for me and the Geek Friends. Feel free to download them and [...]

The Smurf Movie: Dark Blue

By Rey | Published: July 28, 2006
The Greek mentioned in yesterday’s Smurf discussion an upcoming trilogy previously under the working title of Smurfs Return. I have managed to get an inside scoop via my deep connections in the industry. I don’t want to divulge any information about my secret source, but he’s definitely in the know. We’ll just refer to his [...]

Smurfs vs Hobbits

By Rey | Published: July 26, 2006
Recently MCF posited a scenario: Smurfs vs. Hobbits. After several submitted articles across a very small corner of the blogosphere, the results came in with most voting for Hobbits due to their size. Many would say “they can crush the smurf, forthwith.” MCF on the other hand stood with the Smurfs and pointed out that [...]

Match Point

By Rey | Published: July 23, 2006
Any reader of MCF’s site will immediately become aware of a passive paranoia and an actively nourished neuroticism. It makes his nick of the world wide web all the more entertaining and thus has us seeking for more. He’s great, he’s incredibly funny and always engaging—and it’s always great to see him turn red under [...]

I Would Rather Die…

By Rey | Published: July 19, 2006
Samurai (bushi), Ancient Japan’s military elite, would rather die in battle than get caught and bring dishonor to their master. In some cases, this death would come by their own sword by performing seppuku, a ritual suicide by means of cutting the abdomen not reserved for the Battlefield but not restricted from it either. The [...]

Rey’s Reviews: The Summer Season

By Rey | Published: July 16, 2006
I’m getting fat. After eating way too late and sitting down for an hour and a half of solid commentary reading, I wind up laying on the sofa looking at something. Sometimes Something is playing at the same time as Something Else so I wind up DVR’ing it adding to my increasing weight. Feeling the [...]

Links N’ Junk Again

By Rey | Published: July 15, 2006
What happens when you take all of your personal information and stuff it in an RFID chip? Epassport coming to a country near you. Wal-mart embraced RFID quicker than most. Plans to merge with Skynet Google have yet to be announced. Apple and Nike plan make huge strides in Ipod tech. Buying a car? Make [...]

Random Pix

By Rey | Published: July 14, 2006
The first is a shot I took a few nights back around midnight. I had the exposure sorta high so it might look like the sun. The second shot is my son’s artwork. Or cakes. He was baking (with sand) and set this up on the brick partition in the back of my house. It’s [...]

The Bugs Strike Back

By Rey | Published: July 11, 2006
I can’t believe it. After several failed attempts at my home (and my blog, curse them) the bugs have launched a soft-target campaign. I guess they realized that the bug spray I put down was a bit too hefty (although it hasn’t stopped them from breaching my air space). Instead they have unearthed a specialized [...]
