I’m in love with ChrisitanTuner.com. After searching all over the internet for radio stations that aren’t blocked by our company firewall, ChristianTuner lists a host of Christian rock stations, most of which I can get at work. Now my only problem is choosing which station I want to listen to. I wish I could get one of these stations in my car.

Wolfpack Webcam
I just found out there are two live streaming webcams at NC State. This one in front of D.H. Hill Library covers a good part of the Brickyard, the center of student activity at NCSU. Looks like you’d be able to get a good view of Gary when he’s out sharing the good news.
This camera shows some pretty active construction around what I believe is “The Quad,” which at least used to consist of Becton, Berry, and Bagwell Residence Halls; a cafeteria, and a c-store. The c-store disappeared and became whatever that is in the center of the camera. Who doesn’t like big trucks, though?

Still not a morning person
I just spent 15 minutes looking for my keys. Then, I found them in my pocket.

New Photo Gallery
I’ve got a new photo gallery now. Go over and visit it. You can send e-cards to your friends, too. You want to do that.
New Cable Channels
I got a letter from my cable company last week. At the top are inch-high letters reading “EXCITING NEWS! NEW ADDITIONAL CHANNELS!”
Below it describes them: Jewelry TV, Tennis Channel, HorseRacingTV, and TV Games (another horse racing channel). It bothers me that the channels are actually broadcast.
Before adding these exciting new options, I only had about 400 channels that I never watch. Now make that 404. I called and had my cable service discontinued yesterday.

Make a Meatball
I was watching Oprah the other day, as she talked about some of her favorite foods. Among them was this Turkey Meatball from Trattoria Mollie. I used this recipe as inspiration for the pork sausage meatballs I made tonight. And since I didn’t really follow the recipe, I can’t speak for the Polpette alla Mollie exactly, but I can say these were good. So go make a meatball! This means you, too Kelly. I’ll be glad to try your recipe for a fabulous meatless ball if you have one.

Friday’s Thought
I think my favorite line from HomestarRunner.com is
“A modestly hot girl to get me through the hard times. You know the kind that are only sorta hot, so they don’t mess around with other guys.”
As a side note, the music on this one was written and performed by They Might Be Giants

Bruising Bugs
That’s the phrase for this weekend. Bruising bugs means you’re meddling through traffic not driving fast enough to kill any vermin, and not posing any real threat. As in “I’ve been sitting on 95 south for the past hour, just bruisin’ bugs.” This is a phenomenon that is most likely to occur on I-95, anyway, particularly around the DC metro area. Maybe you can guess how I spent 2 hours of my afternoon.

Maybe it’s the radiation
I now have three computers sitting in front of me (not counting the one over there — I haven’t tried it to see if it works or not), three monitors, not counting the one on my laptop, two keyboards and two mice.
Both keyboards and both mice are plugged into the one computer, which is also connected to two monitors, one of which is not turned on.
I think my life has gotten completely out of control.
