I took 5-Hour Energy, and I feel great!
For anyone who isn’t in the industry, this is what computer programming really looks like.

Maybe that’s where they got the idea
Considering that the local Pizza Ranch caught fire earlier this year when their broiler malfunctioned, I found their latest advertising campaign (for the new Smokehouse Chicken Pizzas) amusing: Something’s Smokin’ at the New Prague Pizza Ranch!

At least it’s easy to remember…
My wife just used the “Forgot my password” form on the MNCPA’s website. The automated response was, how you say, not very helpful: This is definitely a candidate for WorseThanFailure.

Show it to the Navy.
Somebody e-mailed me this satirical article about Digg’s userbase revolting, which “quotes” me talking about Kevin Rose defacing my blog.
