Register One - I can't believe this title line was messed up for an entire year.

They Asked For a Break
Posted by on June 22, 2005 - self-pity a.m.

I believe everyone has been on one side of this conversation. So, as you may have noticed, these people are not part of the normal Register One crew. I'm giving them a break for a bit so I can spend time on other things. This may, counter-intuitively, result in more frequent updates, but we'll see. So stick around as we rip into the AIM conversations everyone has endured at some point (among other things).

I just wasted two days futzing around with my computer. It involved a missing windows XP CD, the bootloader being a jerk, BIOS death (a fun new experience for me), and far too much screwing and unscrewing. My XP CD is still out there somewhere...

Getting Dusty Down Here
Posted by on June 14, 2005 - borrow p.m.

I'm stealing this spot because Drew's busy with real life now that he's graduated, or at least I assume he is. You'd be surprised at how seldomly we talk. Anyway, we have this extra slot here, so would anyone like to ? The utilitarian side of me (i.e. all of me) says there could be some nifty uses. Maybe, maybe not, but it's not seeing too much action, so I figured I'd try to fill the spaces between rants. Consider it an experiment, one that will most likely fail miserably, but would be worth it if it produced at least one particle of interest. Anyway, I really have no idea what you might , maybe retail stories, pics, I don't know, be creative. And don't be offended if it doesn't get posted, I reserve the right to yadda yadda yadda. Also don't be surprised if nothing gets posted, I don't have extremely high hopes either.

Of course, if Drew feels the need to say anything, that will overwrite whatever's here, but eh. Okay, time to think about a massive site overhaul.

- Update - June 18, 2005

As it turns out, a friend of mine has some stuff he wants to talk about but needs to get in order first. It's kind of "out there", but if you don't have an open mind, what are you worth, right?

- Update - June 24, 2005

Said friend appears to have disappeared from the face of the planet. Hmm.

184. Video: Edith and I are up late ~~studying for midterms~~ watching crazy German music videos from the 90s. I'll miss college.

183. Video: Edith, the darling lass pictured above, will be performing this later this semester. I'm not sure what the protocol is when you find out your girlfriend is a zombie, but I guess I'm glad to have advanced warning that she'll be eating my brains at some point.

182. Video: Women in Western Art. Pretty niftay.

181. Comic: Copper is updating again! Glee!

180. Japanese Insanity Guitar Bear Pink Japan: WHAT?WHAT?WHAT?WHAT?WHAT?WHAT?WHAT?WHAT?WHAT?WHAT?WHAT?WHAT?WHAT?

179. Video: Pac Man invasion. Old, I guess, but still required viewing.

178. Comic: Piled Higher and Deeper: So awesome! Also makes me not want to go to gradschool. Though, it worked out for my dad anyway, so who knows.

177. Artist: JF Bruckner: Oh yeah, jfb is awesome too! Right, right, more artists and comics, I forget so easily...

176. Comic: Copper: Copper is my favorite webcomic. Every strip is inspiringly beautiful and bursting with imagination, but beyond that, they consistently resonate with profundity without screaming "Look at ME, aren't I profound!?" I tried to write a lot more corny praise, but just go read all of them instead, you won't be sorry. I was hoping to wait for Kazu Kibuishi to get back to it so I could scream about its return, but it's been quite a while already, so I'll just link it again once that happens.

175. Artist: Mitsui. Life must be hard when you're this awesome. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7

174. Comic: The Unfeasible Adventures of Beaver and Steve. I don't actually read this often, but the toaster knob makes me want to. That sentence will make no sense as soon as they update.

173. Humor: Kyle linked me to this, but I can't imagine why. P.S. Kyle sucks.

172. Comic: Socks. Okay, Socks is also amazing. I need to read through both these soon. Yargh.

171. Comic: Minus. Leo just linked me to minus, and it is aggggghjustgoreaditIcan'tthinkofwhattowriteitisamazing.

170. Flash Game: Fancy Pants. Fancy Pants!!! Made me want to drop everything and make an awesome speedy platformer with simple but incredibly smooth smooth animation with my roommates. Who knows what they'd do, but Kyle already agreed to it. Right Kyle? Study for your midterms to signify "yes."

169. Random: Revenge of Zoom Quilt.

168. Comic: Sinfest. How could you not know about Sinfest already? :|

167. Apps: doPdf. People keep asking how to write out pdfs. If you don't own Acrobat Pro, apparently this works.

166. Humor: Then Japan puts Berkeley to shame in the flash mob arena. But c'mon, it's Japan, it's probably weird when stuff like that doesn't happen.

165. Humor: Berkeley ninja flash mob battle royale round 1 fight.
