Here’s an audio sample of my favorite moment in Celebrity Jeopardy. Enjoy.

Should it be that when I turn on the vacuum that the lights in my room dim?
Are you considering that the Priess Company built this apartment?

Looks like I just fried my cheap little D-Link router trying to download Fedora Core 2.

Why haven’t I heard this on the news? Polish Troops Discover Iraq Bio-WeaponsChemical Munitions Found by Polish Soldiers Were Being Pursued by Terrorists, Military Says.
And here’s another one. Sarin, Mustard Gas Discovered Separately in Iraq

I’ve been absent from my blog for a few days now, because I’ve been doing some other web development. Well, the meat of that is done now.
So please go visit my new The Waiting Fan page.
And if you’re one of those serious groupie fans that I know you are, join the forum and chat it up.

George W. Bush is psychic!!

They pressure washed our building today. It looks a lot better. So, uh…maybe I should clean my room.

Shall we then say “Goodnight and mean “Goodbye”?
Or perchance,
When the last little star has left the sky,
Shall we still be together
With our arms around each other
And shall you be my new romance?
On the clear understanding
That this kind of thing can happen,
Shall we dance?

After something like a year, maybe more than that, I’m finally done with Les Miserables. And you might notice it’s not moving to my recommended list.
There were lots of good parts. But in a book that size, there were also lots of really bad parts. That’s why it took so long for me to read it. For about nine months there I just fell into a section of the book that didn’t hold my interest for more than about a paragraph.
It doesn’t have a happy ending, either. I like happy endings.

I got some nice chicken breasts at Food Lion yesterday. They’re yummy and they were an MVP buy. So I cooked one up on the George Foreman yesterday and made some rice and squash to go with it. Well, that was pretty yummy.
But today when I wanted some lunch and all I have is chicken breasts, I thought I’d do something different. There’s a show on TLC — or, no I guess it’s on the Food Network — called Food 911, where they go into somebody’s house and make delicious meals with basically whatever they have lying around. Of course these people always happen to have several kinds of fresh meat, a variety of wines and gourmet cheeses lying around. I should host that show.
Well, scanning the area for useful ingredients, I proceeded in such a manner:
From this tasty chicken breast I first discarded the marbling of fat along some of the edges. I then sliced it open, butterflied if you will so I could access the interior of this cut. Along the inside of the chicken breast, now spread open upon my wooden cutting board, I scattered some fresh oregano along with grated parmesan and mozzarella cheeses which were in the refrigerator. I added to the mixture lemon juice, coarse ground black pepper, and a blend of italian seasoning. Then folding the chicken back over so that the toppings became a stuffing as it were, I seasoned the outside with a mixture of the same italian seasoning and more pepper. This parmesan-stuffed chicken, flavored and put back together I laid on the now hot George Foreman grill and closed the lid. Following, I put my leftover rice and squash in the nuker for a brief. Thence in a period of time that Rachael Ray would be unable to beat, I found myself dining on this delicious meal.
Such was my morning.
