I don't like Mondays

I hate the start of a new week.

Nothing exciting to report.

Me Getting into Trouble at the Aquarium

Leave us kids alone...

Check out this article.

All I have to say is, where is Maury gonna send those kids now?? Where Maury?? WHERE???

The LO's

The LO's!!! The LO's!!! Where are the LO's? They are like undeniable genius... you know what I mean???!!!

what I do at work ...

xcharlesbronsonx: Do only me, Heidi and you read the blog? Where are the LO’s!!!!!!!! Man, so many people let me down.

Little_thingies: ok ok, but i'm waiting for things to pick up on the blog. I think we need more inflammatory material on there...then it'll be interesting.

xcharlesbronsonx: Well I don’t want to get kicked out of the country for saying shit. The last thing I need is to be put on the U.S. no-fly list. Another idea is if we get a cousins message board. That would be righteous.

Little_thingies: ok ok, i'll start brainstorming some shit up. as long as you sign off each post with "Jesus is great" i'm sure you'll be ok.

xcharlesbronsonx: Why isn’t Jeff on here?

Little_thingies: i've sent him the link, but no response. He must be busy with trying to make his dataset match whatever results he gets...haha

xcharlesbronsonx: That is pretty funny. It is like some sort of inverse operation.

Little_thingies: not an inverse operation. I think he must be trying to brute force the correct data set seeing as how he stays at the office so late.

"does this work? .....nope"
"does this work? .....nope"
"does this work? .....nope"
"does this work? .....nope"
"does this work? .....nope"
"does this work? .....nope"

xcharlesbronsonx: Hmm …I see he is traversing the entire problem space. How does this method minimize time spent in local minimas and maximas?

Little_thingies: he doesn't because he didn’t realize his div/0 ERRORS are a result of mistakenly labeling his local maxima as the global maxima.
xcharlesbronsonx: Jeff is going to beat you up. When was the last time Jeff laid a beat down on you? Anyways, I am going home now. I am going to get a slurpee on the way home.

Little_thingies: if you didnt' forward, i would've forwarded it myself because this is another winning conversation.

xcharlesbronsonx: I can’t believe Jeff still has not responded. He must be using all his super powers to contain his rage. I spose the rage will come later at home.

Little_thingies: he's either at lunch or he's focusing his primordial rage at pushing feces out.

xcharlesbronsonx: he did not even sniff at the bait. that is some self-control.

Jeff: you guys are sooooooooooooooooooooooo funny. I'll give dan a serious beating later.

hey summer, where you been?

It has been a nice week with Heidi visiting. The dog is totally enjoying her visit. She is so starved for attention (the dog I mean, not Heidi). Anyways, pretty easy day today. Dropped off Heidi at the spa, picked her up, ate a righteous japanese lunch, 20 degrees and sunny, wicked sunset, had a nice home cooked meal (seafood stew), Jen took her shopping. All in all, I would say it's been a good week. Tomorrow Minna will take her shopping in the morning. Then I'll drop her off at the beach. Tomorrow night will be some tequila madness. Saturday will be the zoo. Then it is off to the airport. Such a short visit, she needs to come back this summer. Maybe Coach Dan will come too.

P.S. Listen to Bob Dylan.

man pig

I just wanted to say that word.

Tomorrow I am taking Heidi to Old Town SD. Maybe I can recreate the Mexico trip with Coach Dan. Nahhhh.. I just got a new car. No puke in the car please!

California, Caliiiiiiiifoooooooornia

I can't get the OC theme out of my head these days. Del Mar rocks like a cool asian nerd in figuring out pi to the 100th decimal point. Hmm....that was a really bad analogy.
Can anybody help me out come up with a better one?

xcharlesbronsonx, Jen and Lex are really cool and a wholte lotta fun. If this whole law school thing doesn't work out I'm going to move to Del Mar to become a beach bum and to open a Starbucks. Yes, I know being a beach bum and opening a Starbucks go against each other's philosophies, but who says I can't be a yuppie, corporate beach bum?

A sad day ...

Canada losing to Russia.

hey dude! hey! Keep the spirit of rock alive!!!

So Heidi and I went to the beach this morning to hang out. Now we are going to breakfest at a restaurant on the water. Life is so tough on the mean streets of the D.M.

Keeping it real yo!

I want my dvd's

Check out this article.

Right on the money. These content owners have taken it too far. I'm a legitimate consumer and I don't know how many times I've been fucked over by these assholes. I buy a laptop in Canada, bring it to HK, suddenly my dvd player can't watch movies I buy over here because of different region encoding. Same story for my PS2. So what am I to do? Of course buy pirated stuff that's free of any encoding.

I buy a new HDTV, if I'm unable to watch movies at the full resolution I paid for because of their retarded digital caps, I'll be plenty pissed off.

Look what they've done to the PS3, they've totally killed it before it even got its chance because they just can't agree on blu-ray content-protection standards.

Luckily I'm in HK, I have no incentive to play by their rules. I have the money to pay for their shit, but I'm the one being punished for it. Too bad, wan chai is just a bus ride away. Buying like 5 games/movies for less than $20 doesn't hurt my bottom line. All the bandwidth in the world means I can get the goods delivered to my computer if I'm too lazy to take a ride.

hmmmm ....

I am not sure why Bush is so enthusiastic about the port deal with the UAE. Just last year his administration blocked a Chinese company from buying a U.S. oil company.

Shape of my Heart

I'd like to take some time out of a busy Sunday to say happy birthday to Heidi from everyone in HK. Well actually, it's just me and Joanne saying happy bday.

Here's a long overdue pic from xmas.

Well if I'm so busy, what am i doing at home blogging? Blogging and listening to Backstreet Boys!!! It's 2:30 pm, time to start drinking.

Reading week has started, reading week has started...

My three roommates have left me all alone in the house since I'm not leaving town till tomorrow morning and they couldn't want to get the hell out of here.

I sort of feel like walking around the house in my underwear and singing Kelly Clarkson songs as loudly as possible.

Does this make me a loser? What if I chose to sing Gwen Stefani songs?

Cranked up really high

My old roomate convinced me to enter a 1o K race against the marines at the local base. It is over tires, obstacles, ropes, hills, mud etc .... This is June 10th. I need to start training. This could be catastrophic at so many levels. 10 K is my upper limit, the other shit is going to break me in half.

Lions and monkeys, in harmony

Little Thingies' pictures reminded me that I have this one picture that I need to share with the world at large.


Where did this stuffed-animal pornography come from? My friend went to a open house and wandered around the bedrooms. She came across the lion and the monkey and quickly got an idea in her head and snapped a quick picture. Then my other friend came into the room and got aghast and made her un-pose the animals.

Free all the monkeys ....

Remember this?

Just a quickie

I just thought I'd add some color to this blog by adding my whiteness. This is the TV me and Joanne bought before taking off for xmas vacation. I've only tested it, but it hasn't been set up yet.

Gotta wait till after renovations are done, then I'll have a system that blows clothes off women. You gotta see the home theater that I have lined up and waiting to be hooked in. See this dial here? It goes up to 11.

Finally hanging with the cool kids

I wonder if I'm just getting more crusty as I get older. I'm older than a couple of the kids that I hang out with school and sometimes I cannot take their endless yammering about things that you would find the kids on The OC arguing about. Or maybe I just need to chill out more?

xcharlesbronsonx, you'repretty chill, what's your secret? Especially since you're constantly surrounded by younger students that must yammer on all the time. How do you keep from snapping? Do I need to start drinking at 9 in the morning so that I have a sufficient buzz to last me throughout the day?

fucked up but looking good!

So the guy showed up today. Nothing happened. He seemed like a high functioning schizophrenic. My boss totally wigged out for nothing. My respect for the boss has dropped by a magnitude of a hundred. Such a pussy. In the end, I felt bad for the guy. He seemed like a nice guy. A little kooky, but nice nonetheless. Now I feel bad.

Also, I got called out by some old cyclist today. He was checking out my bike (Santa Cruz Roadster, only the toughest road bike ever made). I said hi to him and he ignored me. He was decked out in his fruity cycling clothes. I would understand wanting to wear that stuff if he was sponsored, but I am sure he wasn't. And why would you want to rep Trek of all companies. Trek=squishy old dude bike. At the green light I tore out of there. He caught up in no time and said "It the pants, you got to lose the pants." I was wearing my GI Joe camo shorts. Oh well. I ended up drafting behind him. Homeslice couldn't lose me that easily. Just more evidence that road cyclists are wankers.

We're gonna need to go ahead and move you downstairs into storage B...

I took the afternoon off and got a Hep B shot. I normally don't mind needles but this one hurt. I still have a hole in my arm and it's all sore.

So we're interviewing for the position of "Disgruntled Goat" for this blog. We already have a candidate in mind.

And I figured that I shouldn't be posting from work in case I have anything abusive I wanna say.

Much hilarity ensues ...

We have a special visitor in the lab tomorrow. The boss at work wants all of us there at work tomorrow in case anything bad happens. That makes no sense at all, I am going to hang out at the student union building instead and chat with the ladies. No sense in experiencing first hand what it is like to be shot at. The visitor left the lab years ago and has stopped taking his meds. He is a paranoid schizophrenic. He told the lab head he would be dropping by the lab at 3 pm for a chat. Yeah fucking right!

Last I heard he lives in a shipping container on the driveway of his house. Something about the steel walls blocking the mind reading waves from the "K-people."

Should be interesting.

Anyone else waiting for the Palm Sunday Integrity release? Dwid is for realz.

Everything must go...

Saturday night got off to a raging start (large Japanese beers, sake, Stella, Red Headed Sluts). Then it ended with a whimper at some crappy frat party. The two kegs were tapped out, the music was crappy and the people were shitty. I don't understand how some people think dressing like Bart Simpson is cool. What is up with the shitty spiky hair gel thing??? Do they know they look brokeback? Shitty shit shit party. Now I know I did not miss anything in college by avoiding the asshat frat boys.

I came home defeated and cried into my pillow.

TESTING: The whole world must know...it's a boring day at the office.
