Robo 6000, Capsella Memoirs
Posted in Uncategorized on November 28, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
I remember the days of innocence and having times to play Zelda, Mario Kart, Final Fantasy, and other intrinsic games. I remember having time to read 10,000 minutes in the matter of two or three weeks. I remember itching to play with the only remote control car I ever got over my brief childhood, having [...]
Those Dang Frogs

Here’s that essay. It could be slightly entertaining. I was literally grasping at straws (I can grasp exactly 276 straws in one hand). Enjoy the .docx-translated-to-HTML.

For the past several hundred years, the French have been looked down upon by many for various reasons; many of them quite silly, and [...]
A Need to Write
Posted in Uncategorized on November 24, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
My fingers are itching, and no amount of scratching will soothe them. I conclude, therefore, that I must write something intelligeble and possibly thought-provoking in order to curb my hunger and thirst for words and expression before my fingers rip themselves off and begin poking everyone’s eyes out– except for yours and mine, of course.

The Ten Commandments About Forwards
Posted in Uncategorized on November 21, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
1. If it’s about a virus, don’t forward it.
2. If it’s about Hotmail, Yahoo, MSN, or even Gmail costing money, don’t forward it.
3. If it mentions Microsoft or some other large corporation tracking emails and giving out free money for forward it, don’t forward it.
4. If it tells the tear-jerking sob story of Mary Lou [...]
Ophcrack for Vista!
Posted in Uncategorized on November 20, 2008 | 2 Comments »
I have one disk for XP.
Now I have another for Vista!
I also have other software that does similar functions on Mac, Linux, supposedly e-mail accounts, web pages, etcetera and etcetera. We’ll see.
Oooh and here’s one for my Pocket PC. It doesn’t perform any ophcrack functions, but it will still be useful in a networking sort [...]
I Am Root; Disparagement On Security
Posted in Uncategorized on November 20, 2008 | 2 Comments »
You’re not supposed to be able to log in a “root” on any Unix system, supposedly, as it’s a “major security risk” (first, who hacks Linux and Mac users who aren’t a. organized crime lords, b. politicians, c. CEOs d. other hackers? Second, who hacks Linux and Mac users, period? Nobody owns them) but I [...]
Ubuntu 8.04 (8.10, rather)
Posted in Uncategorized on November 20, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
A foreword: For all intensive purposes, when I mention 8.04, it’s more of 8.10, seeing as how I’ve gotten 299 (and then some) updates since 8.04 was released, putting me up there with the 8.10 folks, and not needing to download and install another copy of Ubuntu. I love it when the Internet works.
Remember my [...]
Five Years
Posted in Uncategorized on November 19, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
Where will you be in five years from this exact moment. Go on, think about it. I dare you.
…
No, seriously. Really think about it.
I’ll still be here when you’re done…
…
…
…
Ready?
So where will you be?
Right now I’m sitting at Caeruleus in a mediocrally clean room (probably dirtier than I’d like to admit) drinking hot chocolate and [...]
Top O’ the List
Posted in Uncategorized on November 18, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
I recently spoke to a good man named Adams. He works for– well, at least two companies, one of them being his own, I believe: OSnews. It’s a news website with a focus on operating systems, and especially operating systems that don’t hit the press quite as much as Windows and Mac and even the [...]
It’s Be-Ginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas
Posted in Uncategorized on November 18, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
I sing this all of the time to myself, and if my amazing Madrigal partner is around, I’ll pat her back (as is par in the song), and then we’ll sing “Eh-v’ry-where you go,” and she’ll spin around and pat my chest (as is par), and we share a brief and wonderful moment of silent [...]
The First Major Operating System Development Since 1984
Posted in Uncategorized on November 14, 2008 | 2 Comments »
The system looks shiny, pretty, and pretty usless as it is right now, but I bet this’ll become a pretty common interface one day. Will it displace the mouse and keyboard? Mmm maybe not. Especially the keyboard, even if it’s a virtual one (like this). I doubt that we’ll come up with anything soon that [...]
Growing Up
Posted in Uncategorized on November 14, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
This post is for me… which is quite oxymoronic seeing as how it mentions not being selfish anymore. But perhaps it’ll help more than just me. Me. Enough of me.
Gone through many identity changes in this short existence.
In first through third grade, was mainly Spencer. Even though the name on the roll was Jordan, everyone [...]
I’m Getting More Advanced At This
Posted in Uncategorized on November 13, 2008 | 2 Comments »
I have already beaten the level four computer (twice). Of course, I probably still wouldn’t be able to beat a human of this caliber because I sometimes make a stupid mistake that I realize only right after I drop the piece, and so I use the undo function. Even still. I feel accomplished.
Being a Jerk Stinks
Posted in Uncategorized on November 12, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
Today one of my good friends who is in charge of yearbook with a teacher who I didn’t exactly like in tenth grade informed me that this particular teacher searched her name online. She found this very blog and some posts I had written that included her name a while back, and they weren’t exactly [...]
A Mysterious Red Button
Posted in Uncategorized on November 11, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
I awoke several days ago to find a strange red button on my floor. I picked it up, examined it, and examined my surroundings to see if I might figure where it came from. To this I achieved no avail.
To this day I still know not where the button came from. It sits upon [...]
Checkmate! (PS: Twilight– the Preface, At Any Rate– Is Astoundingly Hilarious)
Posted in Uncategorized on November 11, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
HA!
I beat Caeruleus! For the… fourth time in history, I believe!
Now it’s on to level four… phooey.
Tomorrow I feel is going to be a good day. Perhaps a fateful day, too. Perhaps my fate was decided in this one game. This… fateful game. Please note that fateful doesn’t always mean horrid. Fateful means it [...]
Checkmate
Posted in Uncategorized on November 10, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
This is ridiculous. I was check-mated within the first three minutes of the game. Caeruleus isn’t supposed to learn from my strategy– but I swear he is. I used to be able to nearly beat him by moving all of my pawns up and alternating them so that one was two spaces forward, one one [...]
Tactful Attention-Grabbers
Posted in Uncategorized on November 10, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
I remembered just last night that I, too, can pop out one of my shoulder blades just as Trevor can. What makes us different, aside from he being able to do both, is that I long ago decided on more tactful ways to get attention.
I told this to Kyle today while writing for the newspaper, [...]
Utterly Unintelligent
Posted in Uncategorized on November 7, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
Some people really excel at saying the wrong things at exactly the perfect time to turn a happy day into a horribly stinky one. Then they stupidly laugh and walk away as if it didn’t mean anything. Yet it means quite a bit, and will lead to just more lameness.
However, I have a feeling what [...]
National Novel Writing Month

Funny that November should be National Novel Writing Month… the month I was born. It simply must be in my blood and soul to write.

Google Chrome: The Other Half of the Review
Posted in Uncategorized on November 5, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
The first half was published in the latest Jag Wire, and is rather watered down due to the low population of nerds who read it. However, the second half of my review– which is more of an article all by itself– was not yet published simply because we didn’t have enough room. It’s basically opinion, [...]
If Writing Were My Living…
Posted in Uncategorized on November 5, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
If only writing could be my living right now. Then I could be amazing and not feel like I waste time in fruitless ventures to be so.
My options are limited:
Finish a book and send it to a publisher. There’s the possibility that it would get published, and if by some small chance it did, it’d [...]
Go Ye Now In Peace
Posted in Uncategorized on November 5, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
Go ye now in peace,
and know that the love of God will guide you.
Feel his presence here beside you
showing you the way.
In your time of trouble
When hurt and despair are there to grieve you,
Know that the Lord will never leave you;
He will bring you courage.
Know that the God who sent his son to die that [...]
