This is to everyone who thinks global warming is real. First, it's my birthday, so You can't argue with me until tomorrow - when I may have taken this post down already. Second, no where - and I mean NO WHERE, will you be able to conjure scientific evidence that global warming is real. Provable facts include ones such as our planet has had ...

A couple of Tuesdays ago, I was driving to work heading west on Madison's belt line. I made it just past South Town and had to pull over with an astonishing pain in my back/side. I couldn't believe I was doing it, but I reached for my phone to call 911. All the while I was thinking to myself... I'm sure I'm fine... I can't ...

I like nature... when I'm outside. I really do. I love a running stream, fall colors, an apple tree, and a walk through a snowy trail. But when I'm inside, I expect nature to stay out. Maybe that's wrong... to think it's ok to go out into nature, but not let it in... but whatever. Which brings me to my current dilemma - the ladybug. ...

I drive 40 miles to and from work now. I'm fine with it really - as long as I'm going TO work. It seems that every single frigging day, theres an accident on the way home - usually on the OTHER SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY... which for some reason is backing up traffic 15 miles. I have an idea: watch the god damn road in front of ...

I wrote a post a couple weeks ago about waiting for a phone call to find out when my Grandfather passes away. I use Google AdSense to automatically display advertisements on my pages that match the content of that page (Google does that automatically). Unfortunately, that particular post about waiting for death was accompanied by ads for party favors and joke-of-the-day websites. So I wrote ...

This has nothing to do with music, those are just the last words I heard on the TV before I turned it off. But while we're talking about songs, I've been singin' a lot of Jack Johnson lately - I sound pretty good after a long day of smoking to get my voice raspy. Did you know the World Cup is only played every 4 years? That's ...

I was reading an article /slash/ chart of "Web 2.0" sites done by Kat from SEOmoz. I didn't even realize it was Kat who put it together at first, but realized at the end. By the way, the article is great for anyone interested in the best of today's web applications. Kat has a blog at Numine.com that I stumbled onto a while back and make sure ...

Last week Friday, I took a half day so I could watch the Badgers get kicked around by an average Indiana team in the Big Ten Tournament. This week, I took a couple hours off so I could go home and watch Arizona wipe the floor with them. I thought, just maybe, that their piss-poor play over the previous 14 games might turn around for the NCAA tournament... ...

Why the hell would you have cake and not eat it? My birthday is coming up on Saturday, so I thought it would be a good time to break my 6-day silence here. I'm not sure why I haven't written... it's not like I'm not living every day... but I've decided to stop starting every post with why I haven't written. It's annoying. What ...

I promise to be as unbiased as possible... I'm not a hateful person, really... but this situation has to be addressed as it's affecting thousands of people throughout Wisconsin, and no one seems to be talking about it. Here's some background on the situation: First, Charter Communications is the main (if not only) cable provider in Madison, and a good portion of Wisconsin. Charter has an On-Demand service that ...
