Ad Infinitum

Has anyone else noticed how many times Lunesta mentions their product in their incessant television commercial? From my hearing it goes a little something like this: 'This great night sleep brought to you by Lunesta. This great night sleep brought to you by Lunesta. This great night sleep brought to you by Lunesta. Lunesta should be taken with care after consulting your Lunesta about Lunesta. Lunesta has been shown to cause Lunesta. Some Lunesta include Lunesta, Lunesta, and Vomitting. Please don't drink Lunesta. Lunesta...
...
...Lunesta'

Code Rant

I'm about to throw my monitor threw my window. This is mostly due to my trying to rework my positioning for my page using only CSS, which I was able to get to work in Safari, Firefox, and Opera - but not IE7! Damn you Gates! It seems to format fine until Blogger inserts the posts and then it all goes awry. Maybe if I switch blogging programs...I set my main column using:

.mainCol { position: absolute; left:50%; right:50%; margin-left:-300px; margin-right:-300px; }

(with my main column being 600px in width)

Somehow, IE interprets this as 'Hey, I should put each element on its own line!'. Again...damn you Gates.

By George

Remember those tales from back in grade school about the time George Washington chopped down the cherry forest with his behemoth sword...*sigh* Good times.

The U is for Unsafe

I think I should stay away from the U-District. I've only been there a few times and one of those resulted in my viewing a brutal mugging. Well, I was studying at the library/cafes over there today and whilst waiting for my bus ride home, I was privileged to see a blue sports car plough into a street pole not 30 feet away from me and then try unsuccessfully to back up (I think the tires were blown.) I must transmit some sort of bad hoodoo when I'm around there.

The Beeping- It just won't go away!

It started again! The police officer and I pinned down the owner of the alarmed car last night, but to no use since she wasn't listed with our complex's directory. Thus, I had to sleep with that infernal noise bleating against my wall all night long. So you can imagine my enjoyment in hearing that pestering sound start up again in about 30 minutes ago. Honestly, what's the purpose of a car alarm if it goes off for five or so hours without you even noticing!

Hallelujah

Thanks for finally coming to your senses, Alma Mater. Probably a couple years too late, but hopefully the next coach won't continue our current trend of mediocrity. Though we were able to somehow beat the craphawks, hehe...

Starting Over

I got tired of staring at that hacked old banner, so I created this quite simplistic one as a replacement. I was also tired of noticing my never-used other pages on my site. I don't think anyone else paid attention to them either. Anyways, I'll be adding/updating this more frequently as I learn all the fun new stuff and when I have the free time. Until then, you're stuck with this.

Stop the Beeping!

Someone's annoying car alarm has been going off for the last 3 hours! I started hearing it around the time Letterman came on, but was able to drown it out with the TV. Then, after Conan, I was still hearing the pestering bleating, so I went outside to check and didn't hear anything. Which meant one thing- it was coming from the indoor parking facility behind my apartment! I just called the cops cause I can't seem to find the emergency late night landlord number. Hopefully they can put the stupid thing out of its misery.

Running Man

There's this guy that I always seem to run into when walking in the near vicinity of my apartment building. Or rather, he almost runs into me. He looks to be about my age or maybe a little older, in good shape, normally dressed, and is always wearing a backpack with the straps fastened tightly around his chest. His arms stay closely pinned to his body above the elbow and rigidly sway to-and-fro below that. The most fascinating part of this guy is his expression of absolute, unabashed, shear terror. The first couple times that I saw him approaching, I thought 'Surely this guy's gonna murder me.' Either he just firebombed a nearby cafe or he's running from a guy who did. One time, as I started from his pounding footsteps rounding the corner, I also heard him semi-shouting 'Oh God, Oh God, Oh God!' which didn't help quell my fears of his murderous intent. I haven't been lucky enough to have my camera on me when this frantic fellow darts by, but hopefully one day I'll be able to catch him in all his terrifying glory.
