Well, we now have two more reasons to love ze French:
Reason 1 and Reason 2 both of these come on ze heals of ze recent Head Scarf Ban
So based on zhis new information, I'm going to recommend zhis: Zat ze French start planting zheir grape vines in concentric circles, alternating between ze red and white grapes. It should look something like this: Huh huh huuuuh. And I don't want to hear any of the, "But I am Le Tired" excuses either.

Happy Birthday Katie (or K8E in the l33t circles)!! 

In other news, it brings me great sadness to report that K8E's fish passed away on her Birthday Eve. Well, to be honest, I have no clue when it died. Judging by the pungent odor emanating from the bowl, I'd say a few days (I really don't know because I'm not a coroner. However, I did stay at a Holiday Inn). For those of you who could not make it, we had a viewing and memorial service last night at the 1804 Upstairs Bathroom. We had a brief eulogy and a prayer followed by the singing of Amazing Grace. If you wish, you can stop by the 1804 Upstairs Bathroom to pay your last respects...or to use the facilities.

Today boys and girls is the first official day of Spring Break for FSU Students. w00t!! So what does that mean to me? It means that I'm stuck in Tally while my friends go home, to the beach, and on the CCF Mission Trip to Oklahoma. But that also means that my roommates and most of Tallahassee have cleared out as well. Most everyone that is, except for that 400 lbs chick that lives in the apartment above ours, whose room is right on top of mine. Speaking of apartments, you can now see what mine looks like here. Just be sure to read the disclaimer at the top.

Well, another Spring Break has come and gone. Where did it go? I always find it amusing that you need a vacation to recover from the vacation. Sadly, I don't have anything great to report from my hiatus. I do however have a few interesting tidbits for you...actually more like my table scraps.

Check out this exoskeleton that straps to your legs and makes a 100 lbs load feel like 5 lbs. You can read the official news story here and see pics here. As far as practical applications, you could take a 400 lbs chick to a chicken fight and it would only feel like you have 20 lbs on your shoulders. You would take everyone to school. And just in case you have never heard of chicken fighting, here is a random picture off the internet of a fight training school. You gotta start them out early.

Finally, for all the hardcore gamers, here is an article on how to over clock your Sega Genesis.

I realize that many of you may not be the devoted Star Wars fan that I am. But I need to rant about something. First, read this. Ok, General Grievious? What a gay name. Now, I would expect a name like that in a Marvel Comic Book. But holy molars Batman why General Grievious!! This is from the same man who brought us names like Darth Vader, Chewbacca, Boba Fett, Jabba the Hutt, etc... 

I mean, all Lucas did was take the word Grievous and slide another 'i' into it. George you tricky devil you. If it wasn't for my college education, I never would have caught that. Almost as brilliant as "Attack of the Clones", but not quite. You lost your touch a long time ago buddy. One would think that you have enough money to hire some decent writers. Oh wait, that's right. You pour all of it into CG shots. What was I thinking? Yo bro, how about you follow your own advice: "Do or do not. There is no try."

Well, my rant took most of energy today. I posted an Archive Page so you can look back at my insightful mumblings. Err...I mean News and Site Updates. That should keep the Home Page lookin' all nice and neat. Plus, I've gotta feed my OCD somehow. I did do to something really cool with the logo, but I could not get it to work just right and its gotta be perfect. For some reason, it leaves a tiny white strip at the bottom of the logo. I'm not talking about the kind that clean your teeth either. I worked on it for so long that I started to foam at the mouth. And by 'foam at the mouth' I really meant 'get a migraine'. So I'll just change it later.

Tonight is the big night, for Bainbridge GA that is. Casting Crowns is coming to the Decatur County Coliseum. Now I know what you might be thinking, "I know what happened the last time they put a bunch of Christians in a coliseum." But not to worry my friends. This one does not fill up with water and the most harmful animals in Bainbridge are tree rats, opossums and armadillos. Anyways, the doors open up at 6:00 PM and the concert kicks off at 7:00 PM.

Now, apparently I don't update the site enough anymore. So I bring you a bunch if weird, unusual, and somewhat cool crap that I have run across during my internet travels to atone for my slackness:

AOL Translator - Type in your message and it will translate it into what a 12 year old would say on AIM

Yeti Sports 3 - Part 3 of the Yeti/Penguin Sports. Its still not as fun as this one. You can get the complete history of the games here along with all the spin-offs.

I'm sure that most of you all are familiar with the Badger, badger, badger, mushroom, mushroom, Snaaaaaaaaak! thingie. Where here is the extremely gay live action version.

Finally a safety alert!!! Danger Will Robinson!!!! Bath and Body Works has issued a recall on votive candles because they, "can burn with high or irregular flames and pose a fire hazard." I don't know about ya'll, but I regularly use votive candles to freshen up that metallic smell where I store my fireworks, when I change the oil in my Mustang, or when I pump gas. I also think placing one near a huge stack of old newspapers or near curtains really adds a festive look. But then again, and I may be wrong, but don't all candle (votive or not) pose a fire hazard. That's like recalling cigarettes for posing a health hazard.

Well, that should keep you occupied for about 5 min. Bon appétit!!
