TV shows are something that I haven’t really been concerned about much lately, but there is still a great number of shows out there that are very good, ad some surprising shows from the new season which are very good. I’m sad that much of this good work may be negated in the coming [...]
Life is pretty hectic around here with multiple jobs and consulting gigs, as well as personal research to do. I find it’s pretty much a requirement to have something to go home to and relax and take some time off. In the past I’ve used lots of different games in order to accomplish [...]
It’s meme Friday, which I’m bringing back from.. never doing it. And it isn’t Friday.
You scored as Hoban ‘Wash’ Washburne, The Pilot. You are a leaf on the wind, see how you soar. You have a good job, and a stunning wife who loves you (and can kill people). Life is [...]

We were actually hoping to see Stardust when we went to the movie theater. It was about 2 hours after we showed up, so we decided to see Hairspray instead. I think we still would have rather seen Stardust. Hairspray is a classic musical movie, similar to Grease [...]
For the last few weeks, I’ve been trying to participate in Project 365. For those that don’t know about it, it is the idea of taking one picture a day in order to accomplish.. something. I’m mainly just doing it for fun, and in order to improve my picture-taking skills with my camera [...]

When I first saw the trailer for this movie, with it’s boasting of being based on a short story by Stephen King, I was skeptical about having a good time. It was, although, quite a coup-de-force for John Cusack, with good acting and some twists and turns that were hard to [...]
The actual conference was not too difficult to get to - I ended up waiting for the bus much longer than I should have, sitting about 30 minutes. That was kind of annoying, but more annoying was the issue that I had to make a connecting bus, but it wouldn’t show up for another [...]
Waking up in Kos was altogether pleasant, especially because I put the very effective air conditioner on in order to alleviate the high humidity. The room was nice and dehumidified, although I feel bad about using the air conditionar as a glorified dehumidifier. I suppose it is better than using it as a [...]
Getting to the Athens airport was easy as pie. Well, easy as buying pie. A short walk to Victoria station and then buy a ticket at the counter for 6€. It is more than a normal ticket, but it’s way cheaper than the 30€ or so that you pay by taxi. The [...]
