I got home from Toronto just two days ago (Monday). For only two weeks with my life carried on a hard disk with me, it seems like an awful lot has changed. An annoying, but not critical, change has been the lack of my mac. All you mac haters, rejoice: there was one flaw in […]
Sorting Algorithm
I don’t usually blog like this, but I had a semi-moment of inspiration, only being semi- because it might be complete crap. Well, I was thinking about sorting when I thought about using math to quicken the process. This most obviously works with numbers, though I think it can be used for other stuff as […]
Around Home
(I don’t have the dedication right now to edit that last one. Whatever. But I did write this one in my main blog. I wasn’t careful with this one at all, just kind of spilling and watching it flow towards the valley in floor, but I like it. Opinions? Better or worse than when I […]
Around Home
Touring Toronto is strange. Even saying that is strange. You really can’t tour home, right? “Tour” suggests that I’m going to a far away land to see things I haven’t seen and take a first look at new sights. I should know all of this, and I do have vague memories of places, but not […]
Domus ex Machina
With computer in hand, it’s like I never left home.Leaving from Austin yesterday morning, my family’s been driving up to Toronto to visit family and see how things are going. In the past, I always remember the road trips being a serious drag. Little space, little to do, long hours staring out the window, bored […]
Third Times a Charm
(Brownie points if you know what I’m going to write about already, though it only gets second billing) First, thanks tons to everyone who came to the surprise birthday party for me, but Willie in particular. While not mind-blowingly surprising, it was still more than just the moobie I was expecting, and a lot of […]
Trip to Chinatown
My friend Willie organized a trip out to Chinatown last weekend for some of my friends and me. Eight of us packed into a van to a Chinese restaurant for lunch, milk tea, and a supermarket tour. A hill and tollway later, we were there. While driving several months ago, I remember listening to a […]
Like a bad CD player…
I think my heart skipped a beat when I found out that the Marine Band has recording you can download off of their site: http://www.marineband.usmc.mil/audio_resources/index.htmApparently I’m a bigger band nerd than I thought.
Harry Potter… again?
I guess I just kind of go with the flow. No, I haven’t read it yet, so you don’t have to worry about spoilers in here. Surprisingly, people seem to be incredible respectful about this last Harry Potter book. Perhaps my memory has inflated my memory of flagrant spoilers for previous ones and “Revenge of […]
Order of the Phoenix Review
I got the most unusual call from a little Indian boy yesterday asking if I wanted to go see Harry Potter at the midnight release. I’m not really a Potter fan; I got the books from the library and watched the movies, but never really got into it. And I’ve managed to forget most of […]
