some things that sux donkey dix
I guess I'm not done venting...here are some more things that sux donkey dix:
- Those little labels on apples and pears that I often miss and subsequently eat. The same goes for the tissue between layers of sliced swiss sandwich bread.
- America On-Line (AOL).
- Web 2.0. Bitmaps of anything. Photoshop abuse. Poorly resized images. Feeble ISO settings on the digital camera.
- Winning the Amazing Race but spending all your prize money on carving up your face, even though you were hot before you got half your face removed.
- Fake blogs. Fake bloggers. Weekly unbelieveable fake blogger made-up drama. Those who believe them.
- Whoever ate all my Nilla Wafers.
- Raccoons in the city, but not Raccoon City.
- Heroes on Monday night, me without TiVo, with boring night class in the same time slot.
- Extreme narcissism, navel-gazing and self-absorbtion on Flickr:

Jimbo, you can watch reruns of Heroes at NBC.com for free, at an astounding 640 x 480 resolution, complete with banners ads! I guess that's NBC's alternative to actually selling it to customers via iTunes, to be watched full-screen.

Little known Homer factoid: those little stickers on fruit totally, utterly gross me out. If you want to want me feel nauseous, you can stick one of them on me.

Great blog, sorry about the wafers :-)To cheer you up: Go to youtube and search for "German Wedding Singer Microphone"

Can I add Comic Sans to that list?

We (well, I) don't care if you're narcissistic, navel-gazing, self-absorbed, and occasionally just a little cranky - no, wait, don't get p.o.'d at me, please, you know it's true and that's okay! - you are STILL one of the damned cutest and hottest guys I've ever seen. Work with what you've got, baby - and you've got a lot.

Your new Manhunt photo?
Email me your address and I'll send you some Nilla Wafers.

Hadn't realized you'd been arrested in the past, before I saw that pic.

Since all I seem to do on my blog is rant, I guess you are allowed a couple of posts to rant yourself.
What I hate more than the stickers on fruit -- the plastic bag they make you put a single piece of fruit inside on which to put the price sticker.

"...navel-gazing and self-absorbtion on Flickr"
Flickr - Photo sharing for paper towels who love oranges.

I will gladly Tivo Heros for you anytime you want, under one condition that you watch it at my place as I feed you Nilla Wafers and your drink of choice. :-)

Aren't some of those things already over and done with?
And that includes AOL, ya know.
Oh, yeah, Ivan's right. Just go to the heroes site (you might have to use IE). They post the streaming videos the next day - not too bad quality, either.

....oooo, who's the latest faker?

I'm recording Heroes with Media Center, so I can burn you a CD of any episode you miss. Ditto for Bionic Woman and Flash Gordon.

I had no idea navel-gazing goes on over at that Flickr place.

Very handsome Jimbo. :)

TSheehanDC- Flash Gordon????? I saw part of one episode and it was awful, tedious, and no eye candy.

The Whitman DC Condo Blog loves you Jimbo! Muah!
