Stochastic

is the big word I use over at the archives. Don't worry, no discussions on FFTs (fast fourier transforms) and the perils of converting accelerometer time domain data to the displacement frequency domain.

FFS

Evidently, 'crazy' might become taboo in the coming years. What do we call these people -- mentally challenged is taken. Perhaps mentally deficient. Mentally off-kilter. How bout Mental FUBARs. Too many idiots, not enough assholes. Make me President, and I'll castrate every son-of-a-bitch child molester and rapist out there -- none of this 3 strikes BS (sorry, side rant digression w/ a momentary delusion of grandeur).

Then I read this and everything was okay in the world. Reminded me of this video:
Which is probably the only PG song in the entire movie -- every time I see a montage in any movie, this song plays in my head. For those who aren't offended by crude language, behavior, etc, here's a nice little speech from the same movie that about sums idiocy up.

End this w/ a question. If there were nothing to protest, would there be hippies?

What's Your Song?

For previous pieces, I haven't had one. But for Kissing Dragons, it's definitely this (a perfect driving beat for the pacing I tend to want):

What about you? Got any songs that you could listen to again and again to really get you going?

(PS - you can loop a youtube video by adding the word 'repeat' to the url: e.g.: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6hI3YUOVg1w becomes http://www.youtuberepeat.com/watch/?v=6hI3YUOVg1w)

And having a British accent only makes him cooler:

What Does This Mean?

Last night, my wife shared something from the Twilight soundtrack w/ me. An alright melody, but could someone please explain the lyrics? Or, if that's not possible, take a guess at how many pounds of dope the singer smoked before composition.

Hook -- No Line or Sinker, though

Did you hear - Topeka, KS is changing its name to Google. Used to be something like this would get my jaw droppin' - today, I'm a bit quicker on the uptake. If you like pranks, get 'em out today, if you don't, feel free to slap the prankster (or upload a virus to their cloud computing network).
