Kind of inspiring So, it's Friday night, and as usual, we need some sort of entertainment. Tonight's theme: fitness. Here's what happens when a computer geek meets a Navy SEAL for PT. It's not pretty. But does he learn? Oh no.
For people who know of the ass mattress.... Funny site

MarcieAroy: Hey, I just read the coolest line from GQ, the equivalent of the now popular dismissive, "Whatever!" This writer wrote, "Such is it always with the cognoscenti." AWhig: ha AWhig: in order for that to work, you must consider yourself, not part of the cognoscenti AWhig: hey, I had a weird dream two nights ago... AWhig: probably the weirdest, totally laden with hidden messages dream I've ever had AWhig: can you analysis it? MarcieAroy: give it to me, baby. AWhig: can you read it at: http://awhigbraindump.blogspot.com MarcieAroy: oh, shit. what a vivid dream! MarcieAroy: Well, in my estimation... MarcieAroy: I suppose you could say that you have a fear of leasing your deeper emotions, particularly to women, and that if you are caught, what they would find would be freakish... MarcieAroy: and you would be banished to be with the other freak monkeys. AWhig: :-) AWhig: ha MarcieAroy: That being "found out" would be the worst thin...
This looks cool. Xoxide . It's an analog tachometer for your PC, that shows your CPU utilization...That whole PC mod scene is a trip. I do like the look of those see-thru machines though...
Okay, I'm not one to remember many dreams but last night was a total doozy. I'm hanging out with my friend Pierson and his girlfriend and decide to leave their apartment. I realize I'm just wearing underwear as I walk out the door. Instead of making a left to go straight to the parking lot, I make a right thinking I'll take a walk around the block on my way to the car. As I go around the block, the street doesn't quite go back to the parking lot and I wander into someone's house by accident. I'm wandering around the house when two women see me. They seem like they're hanging out watching tv with a glasses of wine. I apologize profusely and kind of back away, saying I'll let myself out. Of course I can't find my way out and end up in this room that is full of yellow monkeys. I'm totally tripping out at the sight and as I turn to leave the room, something pulls at my neck and somehow a collar has been put around me and it's tied down to som...
Well, I went ahead and bought a ticket for the Yo La Tengo/Film show at the Somerville. Hope it's good. I think I need to watch more experimental films filled with jellyfish....
This has got to be the most unintentionally funny site I've ever seen...
From Wired. Really weird, but I'm intrigued. No Pain, No Game Imagine a game where losing a point means getting an electric shock. That's Painstation, a tabletop creation by two guys who want to give the gaming biz a jolt. Dermot McGrath reports from Germany.
I'm debating if I should go check this out at the Somerville Theater. Music by Yo La Tengo, Films by Jean Painlevé

Had a heart felt conversation about humour with my good friend Marcie. Marcie (12:23:13 AM): speaking of Malcolm, the CEO just got back from Vegas. He wanted to see me tonight, but I have too much to do right now. He thinks I'm funny. He has his pick of models from Vegas but he wants to hang out w/me. AWhig (12:23:23 AM): i just spent the last 25 minutes reading about some random guys life I found on the web AWhig (12:23:26 AM): oh yeah? AWhig (12:23:30 AM): are you flattered? AWhig (12:23:37 AM): you are funny Marcie (12:23:54 AM): Yeah, but also I let him know that the clothes don't come off as easily in person as they do on the phone. I just had to make that clear. Marcie (12:24:01 AM): You think I'm funny? AWhig (12:24:09 AM): i got an email from the woman I went out with last Thursday, wondering what I'm doing this week... AWhig (12:24:11 AM): yes AWhig (12:24:15 AM): your are funny AWhig (12:24:19 AM): you're Marcie (12:24:26 AM): Like if...
Woke up a little groggy today. Going over to Jay's house to help him set up stuff after remodeling his computer room. That is all.
