Time to move into the laptop

I’m trying to move into my laptop. There is something exciting about a new computer. It’s clean, pristine and dare I say virginal. (sinner) But on the hand you’re faced with a bloated platform that can’t do a damn thing on its own and the idea of spending the next two weeks installing all the cool apps lacks a certain thrill. It’s sort of like going to see the Grand Canyon in a Pinto. But here we go, it’s time to upgrade the apparatus!! Bring on the Feedreader, the Digsby, the OneNote, the DisplayFusion, the Notepad++ and whatever the hell else I can get my hands on! I mean I’ve got a 100GB drive in this BIATCH, I can install whatever the hell I want! The sky’s the limit!

The Outback Aussie Ale

My Solo Beer Venture A few weeks back I decided to fly solo and make a beer on my own. This may not have been my best decision but I did it anyway. My attempt was the Outback Aussie Ale – an auspicious selection that turned out to be an ill-tempered child with behavioral problems. Well, it is Australian (so to speak) so of course it will be difficult and dangerous. It wasn’t hard to make but it didn’t settle in the Carbuoy. It was full of vim and vigor and soon blew through the airlock and was spewing all over the floor – much like a real Australian. I spent the next day constantly replacing the airlock with a clean one. I figured this probably contaminated it and tainted the goods. Theo was good enough to come over and bottle it with me and he thought it smelled a little off. I didn’t notice that but perhaps I was […]

Change Up – The Movie

After reading the less than flattering comments made by Roger Ebert I was anxious to see this one. I mean seriously, how many times does he get to use the scatological for a movie review? That alone is noteworth. So how was it? Did it lower itself to expectations and reveal what happened to Van Wilder after college? Yes indeed there was a lot of crude humor, random tit shots, pregnant chicks, potty humor, pissing, vulgarity and penis jokes, but honestly, I laughed a hell of a lot. I’d see that movie again. In fact I’m pretty sure I’ll be buying that one when it comes out on DVD. It just cracks me up to see Jason Bateman act like such a damn loon. He’s jumping around, playing with his balls (look freckles!, talking about oral sex and masturbation and even saying he should kiss his own dick (you have to see it to understand that one). It just seems […]
