How much therapy is this kid going to be getting for the rest of his life? Dang.

I'm either lucky or smart tonight... I've known the answer to every Jeopardy question heading into the first commercial.
Of course, none of the contestants have missed any yet, so I guess they aren't very hard.

I remember my Commodore 64, hooked up to a little black and white TV. I used to play the Zork games, Chopper and the original Maniac Mansion. I used to try to use GeoWorks, but I couldn't ever get much to work on it. It was like Windows for Commodore. ...

I realize I'm probably the only one with a big enough OCD-cleaning complex to enjoy this, but this is a nice little cheat sheet.

I don't think I've read an article that "speaks" to me so well in a very long time.

So I watch Bionic Woman, pretty much - maybe completely - because the lead actress is hot. Tonight was a bonus because she's speaking with a British accent, which makes her hotter. I thought she was doing a pretty good job at it, too.
And now I'm an idiot, because it ...

Transformers is out on DVD, and I have yet to buy my copy. Looks like Wal-Mart has the best version, which is a DVD set with a prequel to the Transformers movie. I'm not sure what it's really like, since I'm sure it's not live-action or anything like the movie, ...

Why do microwave dinners or whatever that tell you "do not cover" always explode in the microwave, even before the minimum time that they are supposed to be in the microwave? It happens to me on a regular basis.
On a side-note, my canollies were not very good.

Not that I'm unhappy they didn't hit last night, but that seemed like a lot of hoopla for some storms that didn't materialize into anything.
And the Wings didn't suck too bad last night, either.
Guess I was wrong about everything!

Isn't October 18th a little late in the year for nasty storms? At least, ones that don't involve snow?
I felt like crap today and I think it's directly related to the rain going through last night. My head seems to get all wacky when we have a big low pressure ...

Today's Fortune:
Your principles mean more to you than money or success.
OK... first of all - still not a fortune! Seriously, when did fortune cookies become random-saying cookies? I eat fortune cookies first because I like the way they taste but second, because I like to see what wacky fortune I ...

I really wanted to try to write something for all of your amusement tonight, but I just can't come up with anything interesting. Not that what I write about is usually interesting, but at least it's something.
I finally got around to finishing the Halo 3 Campaign on Saturday afternoon. It ...

Oh, I could - and I got 100%.
Makes sense, though - when I took the ACT in 8th grade, I only missed one question in the science portion. In high school, I didn't miss any. I think a perfect score was 36, so we'll just say I had some issues ...
