Life Update with a little Nudity in Hawaii

Hawaii BeachWell, Matt Kelley is back in town, which means bars, putt-putt, and computers for me. I like to tell myself that he’s here to visit me, but I’m sure that his lovely girlfriend, Erin, has something to do with it. Speaking of girlfriends, I would like to send out a warm happy b-day to my lovely significant other, who just turned 23 last Saturday.

It’s been a pretty awesome week with lots of good food and good friends. Friday was the beginning of Rach’s celebration with dinner at TGIFs and a little Silverton Café afterwards. For the record, I believe Silverton is the coolest bar in Cincinnati. Not only do they do non-credit carded tabs, they have ski-ball bowling, mini-shuffle board, an old-school ice cream machine that uses a suction pump, kwazy karaoke, and a juke box you have to hit to make it work. Best yet, during the week, they lock the front door at 11pm. This way, only the regulars who know where the side entrance is are allowed in.

Saturday held more good birthday food at Cancun and was followed by amazing desserts at Prima Vista, an amazing restaurant that sits upon a hill overlooking all of Cincinnati. The rest of the week has led Matt, Erin, and me to other great Cinci places including Nothing But Noodles, PRC, Western Hills Putt-Putt, and a second trip to Silverton.

Good luck to all those starting classes, whether you’re taking ‘em or teaching ‘em!

Well, I gotta lot of cool new gadgets to post about, but before I do, here is a little something for you from John Lavelle. He sent this to me in an email entitled ‘WTF……seriously, WTF.’ All I’ll give you are the title and the links.

Naked Woman Jumps Onto Car to Stop Thief: I’d watch the video and then read the article.

MIC: Missing in Cincinnati

Sorry that I haven’t updated anything recently. Between trips to Duff’s, yummy Chinese dinners, and that work thang, I’ve been unable to fill your computer screen with ridiculous things. But, now that I’m back from running through life, I believe this to be fit:

Californians On Edge

Apparently, California is more dangerous than I thought. Shortly after 5:00am on August 9th in Antelope Valley, CA, two different sheriffs offices received calls from dozens of people reporting a shooting. Apparently, they all awoke to a loud bang that they assumed was a gun.

In reality, they experienced the earth shaking double sonic boom caused by Discovery’s landing. One boom woke the townsfolk from sleep and the other frightened the hell out of them. Now, Californians have to worry about gang wars and shuttle landings.

The ‘Beast’ Game Out There

Yesterday, while doing research at XU, I received this from Mr. John Lavelle. I feel like I should post it.

Okay,
I know that game at this link is horribly sexist and it supports Miller products (you’ll see), but it is probably the most clever concept for an online game that I have ever seen (possibly not safe for work).
Juicio, I expect this on your website post-haste Monday morning (or whenever the hell you crawl out of bed).

If you’re name is Szkot Buzza, you might have a particularly difficult learning curve for this game…..

John, you assume I sleep.

Ogling!

Remote Controlled Girlfriend?

Remote Controlled WomanHave you ever wished you had a remote control to guide your boyfriend or girlfriend? Well, now you can. Nippon Telegraph and Telephone labs have created a headpiece and remote control that can be used to control the movement of another person. The video is hilarious! I wonder where I can get one of these for Christmas?

Wall-Art

Banksy barrier artBanksy is at it again! Banksy, the ‘guerilla artist,’ is well known for his stunt art. He made the news last year for secretly planting a fake cave painting in the Bristish Museum that depicts a man pushing a supermarket trolley. It went unnoticed for three days.

Banksy’s latest target: Israel’s West Bank barrier. Just recently, he put nine paintings on the Palestinian side of the barrier. The images include a hole in the wall showing a beach paradise, two chairs by a window overlooking a mountain landscape, and a ladder going over the wall.

The controversial wall is supposed to protect the country from ‘suicide bombers.’ The construction has been declared illegal by the International Court of Justice and continues to flame problems in the Middle East.

Novak Nuances

Bob Novak on CNNEveryone knows Bob Novak as the reporter who wrote the story leaking Valerie Plame’s identity in the Rovegate scandal. In light of recent events, he has been trying very hard to shape his public image. On a discussion on CNN, James Carville jokingly calls him out on it. Novak’s response was not really that… mature. OneGoodMove.org is hosting the Daily Show clip of the event.

Update: For a longer video of the interview, check out MediaMatters.org.

Update [08/05/05 – 9:10pm]: Due to his actions, Mr. Novak has been ordered “to take some time off” by CNN. Mr. Novak has been seen constantly on CNN since 1980. You can read the full article at Reuters.

Is Cheesecake Atkins Friendly?

Fatkins SquirrelHey Everybody! (Hey Dr. Nick!)
I’m sorry that I’ve been MIA for a bit. Between work, Mr. Matt Kelley visiting, birthdays, and homemade cheesecakes, my time has been occupied. But I’m back now!

Here are a cool flash game and a movie sent to me by Miss Rachel Rumely:

1) For those of you tired of the Fatkins diet, here is a squirrel’s take on it.

2) And for you girls out there angry at boys (like Rachel’s roommate), here is a great game to relieve your stress.

Big Beer Ad

Carlton DraughtThis has to be the coolest beer ad I have seen since Bud’s singing lizards. It takes a bit to load, but it’s worth it.

Service Scholarships

Shannon sent this to me. I think many of us from Xavier will understand.
