I drive a 2002 Jetta, which has this super cool flippy key that has the power to unite all races under one banner.

This, however, cannot be complete without a key ring. The chrome bar that comes attached really doesn’t do the job, and mine broke a while back. The folks at VWvortex forums were quick to provide a DIY fix, which I’ve done my best to chronicle.

No pun intended, sickos.

Get your mind out of the gutter.

Seriously.

Today I tried to get on Google docs and WHAM! I’m hit smack in the face with this two by four of awesomeness.

I wonder who translates for them, or if they do it in house. I don’t even know what most of these languages are!

No matter which angle they show, Santonio is still in bounds, destroying the hearts and souls of Cardinal fans everywhere.

This is awesome. Definitely what the web was created for.

A while back my roommates and I decided to put together our own Entourage poster. I called up an amazing photographer I know, Amy Tronolone, and she helped us out.

On the left is the original, and the right is us. I’m the one in the middle (yes, I did have hair at one point in my life).

A great friend of mine by the name of Reid Wellock just moved back to Pittsburgh, from the music mecca that is Austin. He’s joined up with an awesome band called The Long Time Darlings. Here are a few tunes for your listening pleasure:

Rock Until You Die

Goodbye, Good Luck

If you wanna see these guys play, hit them up on facebook.

Salam, stinogle!

Yes, that multilingual greeting is back. The creators of the original Scrabulous have brought this facebook classic back in all its glory as Lexulous, and I for one am eternally grateful.

I found some old family photos the other day, and felt the urge to get some of them down on paper. Yes, the kid in the lower left with glasses that could see Jupiter is me with my bro. The top pic is my mother (left) and grandmother. And last is my grandfather. Some of these may find their way into some finished pieces of mine, we’ll see…

Ok, so I recently decided I wanted to sew my wild oats and install Linux. When I came to this blithering idiot of a conclusion, I neglected to take into account how my home-brew PC with its dinosaur of a wireless card would handle the situation.

I went with Ubuntu 8.10, Intrepid Ibex. When I initially booted up, I was greeted immediately with a working wireless connection. Oh yeah, I rock. This connection, however proceeded to last for a period of about 15 nanoseconds before it started to violently fluctuate for ten minutes, culminating in a permanent disconnection.

I researched the problem (on my windows machine, as Ubuntu was currently stabbing me in the face with anti-internet forks) and stumbled across a package called ndiswrapper. My first real Linux test was about to begin.
