Do you turn up your nose at the thought of eating anything less than USDA Prime? Do you throw up in your mouth at the mere mention of USDA Select? Worry no more, you steakhouse whore! There is a technique you can use to simulate all the flavor, texture, and marbling you’d get from an…

Sorry, but it’s true. Bioshock had me on the edge of my seat for a few weeks and I couldn’t wait to get home and play it every day. Halo 3 is kind of boring, doesn’t look all that great, and I’m just not into the story. I haven’t gotten very far in the single…

I decided to not even try getting Halo 3 at midnight. Instead I got a full night’s sleep! That was probably better for me in the long run. It occurred to me that if I bought the game at midnight I’d have to play it right after I got it…otherwise why wouldn’t I just wait…

Still no word from DTV about the rumored return of Tivo to their DVRs, or of when their mega-rollout of HD channels might happen. Dish Network revealed a trojan horse!…

It’s a little sad that I recognize just about everyone in this video. They forgot to include Ronald Jenkees though. HELLO YOUTUBES!

With a baby coming in the next few months, excess discretionary income will soon be a thing of the past. This means I’ve had to fast-track my mid-life-crisis spending plan. I bought an HDTV. With my tech-savvy wife’s blessing. It has changed our lives for the better. I did it all as cheaply as I…

I’ve always gotten a lot of spam. I filter most of it with a one-two punch of SpamAssassin on the server side and Thunderbird‘s own filters on the client side. These help a little bit, but far too much spam still makes it through to my inbox and every Monday morning is a huge annoying…
