One of the nerdy highlights for me in January is the Macworld Expo in San Francisco. It’s the traditional event for Apple to announce sweeping changes to their tech lineup. This year the buzz has been all about an iPhone, which didn’t really interest me at all. The irony is… Read more“Macworld Expo is Like Christmas for Nerds”
I realized that Comics! Games! Anthropology! still lacks a games article so here goes. While I’m vacationing in Poway I’m having a severe case of game withdrawl. At my parents house, the only machine capable of playing games is my mom’s G3 iBook. It’s so old it couldn’t run Warcraft… Read more“”
So, Why Did I Have to Shower with a Bunch of Naked Boys?
That title got you attention huh? I was thinking back to my youth and how weird it was, even though I just took it as normal at the time. In junior high, after PE class, us boys had to get naked and line up for group showering. What the hell… Read more“So, Why Did I Have to Shower with a Bunch of Naked Boys?”

Go #54!

Bob made the list for finding the oldest known site in the New World that was used for astronomical observations. These observations were important… Read more“Go #54!”
AdSense (or Add Cents?)
I spent the morning placing Google AdSense ads around my site. Most of the hub pages now have a banner or two. Untouched are the professional pages and the individual comic pages. They look unobtrusive enough, though I have to admit that I’ve never clicked on one before on another… Read more“AdSense (or Add Cents?)”
Blog-making is going nicely. I spent a while trying to get rid of the large gap in the sidebar between the category (ie. Links) and the bullets (ie. Google News). I settled on setting the top border of the list to a negative number, making it move up. If anyone… Read more“”
Like the Mighty Phoenix!
Hi! Welcome to my new blog! This would be my third one. I closed the second one a few months ago in October because I just didn’t feel like writing about myself any more. After some time, I grew to miss writing, and I heard from some people that they… Read more“Like the Mighty Phoenix!”
