Sorry there’s been a dearth of posts lately. The internet connection in my room has gotten dumpier, so I can really only surf when on campus. Problem is, when I’m on campus, I’m usually in class, so I don’t get very much personal stuff done. Also, surfing definitely takes precedence over posting. I have no … Continue reading

Props to Will for this one. Copy and pasted from Blabbermouth: ARSIS Completes Work On New Album – Oct. 19, 2007 Virginia’s ARSIS has completed work on its new album, “We Are The Nightmare”. Produced by Zeuss (AGNOSTIC FRONT, HATEBREED, MUNICIPAL WASTE) at Planet Z Studios in Massachussetts and mastered by Alan Douches (KATAKLYSM, UNEARTH, … Continue reading

I’m going to get real narrative in the next few posts. This was a pretty incredible weekend, a milestone of sorts in that I think it’s one of the only days ever when I wasn’t in contact with my computer to make a post. Yikes. I shall begin with the winetasting. I forget who heard … Continue reading

As planned, I got up very early this morning in order to get some work done. I’m not finished yet, but it’s going very well so far. I was in the kitchen around 7:30am, plodding through my eggs and toast, and Sascha, the resident German metalhead for our dorm, came in. We were both surprised … Continue reading

Took another sojourn to the electronics store today. Carl, one of the geeks here (and naturally a DAAD/SIP scholar), recently scooped up a router to use as an amplifier for the wireless signal broadcast from the university building next to our dorm. After he bought the router and flashed the firmware, he went from 30KB/s … Continue reading

Last night’s concert was probably the best I’ve ever been to in my life. I’d assumed doors were at 7pm and the show started at 8pm, but as I approached the venue around 7:30pm, I could hear there was a band on already. And it was very obviously Sonic Syndicate, as from a block away … Continue reading

I’m not big into candy, but I’m definitely going out and buying a Snickers tomorrow with the utmost haste. Entirely because of this commercial. Mad props to Will on this one. Oh, and anyone not currently listening to DJ Nite – Durance of Hate on Uberguilds Radio, TUNE IN IMMEDIATELY.

I’ll be honest. Halloween kind of sucks. I haven’t been able to sucker anyone into giving me candy for very many years, so that part of the holiday is out. Although I guess I could befriend small children and rob them of the night’s haul, but the fake friendship period would be unbearable, as I’d … Continue reading

There was a huge party tonight for the Tourism department at school. This is appealing, because pretty much every girl at this school majors in Tourism. There’s a separate campus for those classes, too, the same as my E-society class, which I maintain I am taking for defensibly academic reasons. Anyway. The party was 7€ … Continue reading

Dilbert’s always been a favorite comic strip of mine. I think that over the past several years, the quality of it has declined, as the author just doesn’t need to try anymore. It seems like he gets so many submissions for ideas from disgruntled office workers that the strip pretty much writes itself. Well, good … Continue reading
