 | I am:Philip José Farmer This prolific author brings surprising depths to he-man adventure tales, and broke science fiction's prudery barrier. |
Which science fiction writer are you?
I guess I should read this guy, and see how accurate this thing is. | | Friday, December 8th, 2006 | | 7:43 pm |
Back from the Void
Well, after six months travelling the entire country, I have been hired on with another company that will allow me to stay in the southeast, mostly. The real reason for the move is more home time. I will now be home at least one day every weekend, with a good chance of being home more than that every week! Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed that part of the job that allowed me to travel thru 41 of the 48 'continental' states(alaska is part of the continent, but I guess it doesn't count), but after a few times thru certain areas, you've seen everything the country has to offer. I have a greater appreciation for the country now, but am in no hurry to ever go back to New Mexico or Wyoming or Nebraska or Illinois (since I spent tremendous amounts of time in chicago). I was definitely burning out on the long trips and weeks away from the family and will gladly trade a little job-monotony for more quality time with them. I'll even be able to get online more than once a month. alright, I'll see y'all later. Current Mood:  excited | | Saturday, April 29th, 2006 | | 6:38 pm |
After you die...
Parallel Universe
After death, you will continue to exist as if nothing has ever happened. You will continue to be yourself, but because you are in a parallel universe, some things will be different. You may not have married the same person, you might live in a different spot, but you will be the same person underneath it all and you will continue your life unaware that you ever died.

Best Movies Addendum
It was brought to my attention that I completely forgot Serenity. Boy, do I feel dumb! That was a great movie. In fact, that was the Year's Best Sci-fi flick. Leaving Hitchhiker's Guide as the runner-up, and Episode 3 out in the cold...with the wookies. | | Tuesday, December 20th, 2005 | | 10:41 pm |
My First Ever Year-end Movie Awards List
As I am pretty sure that there are no further movie releases that are worth mentioning for this year, I feel safe in announcing this year's big winners. The Year's Best Movie: King Kong. Hands down. 'nuff said. The Year's Best Children's Book Adaptation: Chronicles of Narnia. The Year's Best Comic Adaptation: Sin City. The Year's Best Sci-fi Flick: Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. While Hitchhiker's and Brother's Grimm could be classified as comedies, they both fit better under other categories (Gilliam's films belong to their own category). As such, I didn't see any 'comedies' this year. I'm not really much of a slasher flick fan, so the only thing that could classify as horror I saw this year was Land of the Dead. I liked it, of course. I don't waste money on romance films, so I didn't see any of those this year. As of this writing, I haven't seen Aeon Flux, which is pretty much the only film left this year I have any desire to see, and it honesly isn't much of a desire. If I wasn't a fan of Peter Cheung I wouldn't even bother with it. That pretty much leaves us with the runners-up and honorable mentions. Runner-up for Best Movie: Sin City. Runner-up for C.B.A: Goblet of Fire. Runner-up for Comix movie: Batman Begins Runner-up for sci-fi flick: Episode 3, thank god it's over! Honorable Mention: Brother's Grimm. Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. | | Tuesday, November 15th, 2005 | | 4:57 pm |

Gainesville loves Wookies.
For those who didn't know, The family decided to make this year the Star Wars theme for Halloween costumes. Danielle was Darth Vader (she had the costume for months), Brynn was Princess Leia (the only way we could convince her to participate was to let her be a Princess), The lovely wife was a Jedi Padawan, and Carter and I were Chewbacca and little chewie. So the tradition for Jennifer and the girls is to go to Lakeshore Mall and then Granny's and Nana's. I have no family tradition, so was cool with whatever. So we get to the Mall, and get our costumes situated and head in. There were tons of kids and parents within. Many of them pointed us out. I couldn't believe how many people wanted to shake hands or take pictures with Chewbacca (a somewhat lame, thrown together from two different costumes Chewbacca at that). It was very gratifying to know that Chewie is such a beloved icon. We were the only Star Wars characters we saw, and I thought we'd see dozens of Darth Vader. We did see dozens of Spiderman, and a few Batman. One guy, who had a damn good Willie Wonka outfit, was the first to stop us, compliment us, and take a picture with us (all of us). I had at least three groups of people want pictures with me and Carter (but then, we was really cute, as always). The whole family got into at least two more pictures, one with some lady's little toddler. Danielle had a little Spiderman follow her around for a few minutes. We were celebrities, and it was fun. Of course, I was melting in that damn thing and couldn't see half the time, but it was worth it. We have decided that we should do themed costumes every year (at least until the kids get tired of it, I suppose). I have also decided that I will never agree to wear a wool ape-suit and a full-head mask ever again. We'll see how long that one lasts. Well, I hope everybody had a good 'ward off the evil spirits' day (maybe they're evil because they can't get no love). Current Mood:  exhausted | | Friday, October 28th, 2005 | | 4:34 pm |

| You Passed 8th Grade Math | 
Congratulations, you got 10/10 correct! |
Thank God! I'd hate to think that I'd already lost all the math skills I just picked up with College Algebra and Statistics. Now, if I can just get past Calculus. | | Saturday, October 15th, 2005 | | 4:02 pm |
First Anniversary
Jennifer and I made it to the first one easy enough; it seemed to go by pretty fast. january 14 will mark the second anniversary of our first date. apparently I'm a bad man for being able to guess what my anniversary present was (and my father's day gift, and my birthday gift...), and I think it's really starting to frustrate her, but I think it's cute the way she gets when I figure it out. Besides, it's not like I've ever been able to surprise her with gifts I've given her, though that has more to do with me being a man and a lousy shopper. We went to the Thrasher game for the 'special evening together' portion of our anniversary. They got their @$$ kicked nine ways to sunday (literally, it was a 9 to 1 win for Toronto). However, they came out for the third period (where it was still only 4 to 0 after two periods) with the intent to fight, and there were three of them in 10 minutes. It was great. | | 4:01 pm |

| You Are 60% Boyish and 40% Girlish |
You are pretty evenly split down the middle - a total eunuch.
Okay, kidding about the eunuch part. But you do get along with both sexes.
You reject traditional gender roles. However, you don't actively fight them.
You're just you. You don't try to be what people expect you to be. |

Okay, I know it's been a long time since I went to the dentist (for a reason)and America is the land of Greedy, but this guy wants to charge me 6500 dollars for dental work, and that's after finding out I didn't have insurance and so decided to 'cut me a break' from what was a 20,000 dollar 'work-order'!!!! Granted I allegedly have serious gum disease (if left unchecked I could start losing teeth in five years or so), but DAMN!!! I rather have 'em all fall out and go get some dentures. So...been looking at some dental insurance online and the info there seems to suggest that he is WAY OVERCHARGING! If anyone else has any feed-back they can provide, please do. On to other things. I just started playing World of Warcraft mmorpg, and that is very cool. I like it alot more than City of Heroes, and I'm a super-hero fan! I guess the genre has enough competition that any fantasy-based mmorpg has to be better designed to catch any market-share. My home-town favorites, Atlanta Falcons, won in a big game last night; Sweet! They have two more monday night games this year and are playing Detroit on their thanksgiving special and Tampa Bay on Christmas Eve, plus a sunday night game on ESPN. That's alot of national exposure for the dirty birds. I just hope they can continue to play well and not embarrass themselves too much. Also found out last night that they have NEVER had consecutive winning seasons...I knew it had been a long time (I can only remember back to the early '80s), but not once in 38 attempts (the team will be 40 next year, BTW)! That's major suckage! So, all I want out of this season is to break that string; let someone else lose the super bowl to the AFC. The last disc in the new Dr. Who season one should be here any day now; can't wait! EXTERMINATE!! | | Sunday, August 28th, 2005 | | 9:06 pm |

the Cutting Edge
(60% dark, 52% spontaneous, 33% vulgar) |
your humor style:
CLEAN | SPONTANEOUS | DARK
Your humor's mostly innocent and off-the-cuff, but somehow there's something slightly menacing about you. Part of your humor is making people a little uncomfortable, even if the things you say aren't in and of themselves confrontational. You probably have a very dry delivery, or are seriously over-the-top. Your type is the most likely to appreciate a good insult and/or broken bone and/or very very fat person dancing.
PEOPLE LIKE YOU: David Letterman - John Belushi |
 |
My test tracked 3 variables How you compared to other people your age and gender:
|

|
You scored higher than 72% on spontaneous |
|
You scored higher than 45% on vulgar |
