Science... and crap

In which the chaff is separated from the not-quite-so-chaffy chaff.

All right, you finally got me you Firefox jerkstores...

I was still holding out. I was using Avant Browser and enjoying my tabbed browsing just fine, thank you very much. Then you rat bastards over at Firefox let me know that there was a bookmark that tells you when you have new gmail, and, all of a sudden, I'm hooked.

Dman.

So, over at the Swass Report, el Johnny has been asking us about our moustache mentors. I was hesitant to give mine up at first, but I realized that the good of the moustache wearing nation far outweighs the needs of the few. Presenting... the Cos-tache. Posted by Hello

Every NES game...

Online in Java form. Check them out.

poplockin

I guess this kind of qualifies as a daily game. Except the last time I posted games was months ago. Get to poppin' and lockin', yo.

Consider my Valentines' Day planning done...

The Thought Project

This is good, good stuff. Simon Hoegsberg stops people on the street and finds out what they are thinking at that exact moment.

eXeem

eXeem is a new peer-to-peer. If anyone has used it, please let me know what you think.

Protest Warrior HQ

For every crazy lefty, there's another nutty right-winger to match.

Dumb name, promising station

Minnesota public radio is debuing a brand-spanking new radio station on Monday. It is a little behind schedule, as they were hoping to be out by the first of the year, but it looks like it could be good. I am looking forward to having a place on the FM dial to call home.

Unusual Museums of the Internet Web Ring

Cause them internets be full of wacky stuff.

Samples... use 'em or lose 'em

The most frequently used samples used in hip-hop, house and all the other fine e-lectronic music areas.

isoHunt

If you don't already have bittorrent, you probably smell funny or something.

Aww buuudddy! We got us some snow.

Four inches and counting. I had trouble pulling into the garage tonight because the snow was so heavy. Oh, yeah.

We finally made the news!

That's the inclusive "we". My favorite part of this story... when asked where he will go now that he can't stay in the school the man replied "Oh, I'll probably go crash with some friends."

Things aren't looking good for our hero...

Hey,

So your friendly neighborhood author has come down with a bit of what the kids are calling bronchitis. It's been a pretty rough last five days or so. That being said, though, great things are still in the works here on the crap. The cd swap has been set up over at swap-o-mania and further information will be put there. I am shooting for fifteen or so people on this one, so there should be tunes aplenty. The site re-design has not been forgotten, and I have a ton of pictures of ninjas on bikes rarin' to go. Huzzah to a new year!

Remember, you dirrty bastads (note the "double r" in dirrty)... if you're in on the swap, get to letting me know sooner rather than later.

Vacuuming the Lungs

For those of you who need a step-by-step on how to vacuum your own lungs. I use a Dyson.

Online mag of the moment. Not too bad.

Finger-board or die man!

Poppin' Fresh Muthas...

Goldie Lookin' Chain... "far too sweary and laden with unclearable samples"

Because you know exactly what Hesh wants...

MC Chris... replete with jet backpack and live journal rocking scarf (and Q and A)...

Better than booyah...

Q: What is better than my buddies old band "booyah"?

A: Anything. Especially this swass tool to convert the first 10k digits of pi into musical notes. Because everything is music!?!

Siberian Photos

So I found out, right before the big Christmas break, that the guy in the cube next to me is from Siberia. Maybe he can tell me some back story on all of these photos.

Plus Magazine

A magazine for the budding mathemagician in all of us. (Mathemagic... that's what all the cool kids are calling it these days).

Yarrgh... I be a poor home-owning jerkstore...

The good news is that I can now serve as a relaible resource for all of those in need of a good plumber, gas-line repairman or vent cleaner in the metro area.

Mountains... meet Mr. Football.

Hey Napolean... give me some tots.

Finally, the complete package for the hairy guy on the go...

Hey Stew! This one's for you buddy.

Damn you Hammel...

An open letter to Hammel, host of Totally Scrabble Tuesday on Minneapolis community television...

Hammel,

You should get a switchboard or something. That way the city of Minneapolis won't have such terrible scores all of the time. Otherwise, I commend you on an excellent show. Also, please put some of this stuff online so I can play from Chaska.

Hugs and Kisses,
cj

P.S. We know you eat your own farts.

You think they are nothing but bucketfulls of cute and cuddly, then BAM! they clack their jaws at you and bite off your freaking spine.

What kind of creature gets its nutrition from its own farts Urr?

They do.

That's absolutely correct.

If anyone wondering (which they aren't)

that commercial on the tv for the C2 by coke? It's terrible.

Oh, and r.i.p., Snoop's once glorious hair line.

Total number of times I have flooded the kitchen in our new place?

1 and a half. I rule at home-owning.

Science or crap?

You decide. Mr. Singh believes he has conquered the internal combustion engine.

Relax...

Matisyahu: Hasidic Reggae Superstar

Yep. You heard me correctly.

Oh, by the way, I'm back...

I have been bumping up over my bandwidth limit earlier and earlier each month. I am thinking of solving this problem one of two ways:

1. Stop posting so much crap early in the month
2. Strip down the site.

I think the latter would work better, because it gives me an excuse to kick around some css.

It's the new years...

Looking to throw a post-new years party that is more offensive than your pre-new years party with Sir Gropes-a-lot? Well just get yourself some big fun in a small package.

i heard an interesting rumor today!

while studying italian architecture of the 16th century today*, i began
talking to myself and while most of what i said was pretty boring, it
was the last statement that got my attention. "CJ is getting another
swap together," i announced with the sure knowledge that it was the
truth.

so, i thought i would pass this rumor on to the rest of you lovers of
science...and crap...and music. also, since cj may or may not read
his own blog, if anyone talks to him on the phone in the coming days
please let him know that he is organizing the swap again.

More details in the near future after cj figures them out, but if you
are 'in' verizon style, or 'all in' texas holdem style(or just
stickin your toe in to test the temp) post a comment to let cj know.
It would also be swass to get some new blood involved. word on the
streets is that all the cool kids will be swapping...except
Christopher Wren. he is not in the swap.

cfn kids


*note to you lovers of crap...this post was first attempted the week
before christmas, but technical difficulties(likely cj's fault)
prevented it from appearing.
