A New Endeavor

July 30th, 2005 @ 0218 hours (General Crap)
by Doc Syn

If I’ve been a little light on the writing here the last couple days, it’s been for good reason — trust me. I’ve been wanting to complain about work in general and Patty even more, but even he’s taken a back-seat to my new project.

My Feelings on Hillary

July 26th, 2005 @ 1119 hours (Politics, Rants)
by Doc Syn

I was ashamed when the majority of my fellow New Yorkers voted for Hillary Clinton. This feeling goes beyond my dislike of Clinton, and has nothing to do with my feelings regarding her husband.

About this morning…

Remember when I was all paranoid about the lights going out?

I just stepped out for a cigarette. They were back on.

I am such a knucklehead.

The Raging Grannies of Tucson

I spotted this over at MysticWicks:

And I Quote…
Elderly members of a US anti-war group called the “raging grannies of Tucson” are due in court following a protest at an Arizona military recruitment centre.

They have been accused of trespassing after entering the centre earlier this month, saying they wanted to enlist.

[…]

“We went in saying we were here to enlist, but they didn’t believe us,” Pat Birnie, a spokeswoman for the group, told the BBC News website. “We read a statement, sang songs, and then we left.”

[…]

“We would like to replace our young who are in the firing line,” Ms Birnie said.

Sunrise, Sheets Rise

July 24th, 2005 @ 1836 hours (Relationships, Puppet Show)

Well, in the wee hours of this morning, I might’ve gone to bed, but I was tweaking some technical details on this here blog and I didn’t. I was too interested to go to sleep. Then I hit my second wind, and I couldn’t go to sleep. I stayed up and tweaked and tweaked and tweaked. Then I got painfully bored. Then, around 0645 I made myself head off to bed.

The sun was coming up right around then. As I lay on my side, spooning with my sleeping wife and gazing out the window right next to our bed, the sun was up, but low in the sky. There was a breeze rustling the leaves on the trees between my view and the sun, so that every so often the sun winked at me for so brief a time that I could look right at it without hurting because of it. It was absolutely beautiful.

Certifiably Paranoid

Just for the record:

  • I am not insane.
  • I am not afraid of the dark.
  • I am probably a little paranoid.

With that in mind…

Deep Boy WHAT?!

July 24th, 2005 @ 0144 hours (The Internet)
by Doc Syn

I was giving my site logs a quick scan the other day, just to see if I had any visitors from exotic places. Consequently, I did see that I got six hits from Seychelles, which according to the CIA is “group of islands in the Indian Ocean, northeast of Madagascar.”

Anyway, as I flipped through the logs for anything interesting or unusual, I came across a table that listed search results that people had used to find my blog.

Only one search was shown, with only one occurance. This either means my logs are incomplete, or this is a record of the very first time someone ever found my blog in a search engine. The search term used was…

“deep boy asshole”

I am not joking.

I am, however, about to vomit. Excuse me.

I have the power!

No readers! Yes! I have outlasted you all! HA HA HA!

Well, okay, maybe that’s a little premature. I subscribed to a service that tells me how many people subscribe to me, but since I just started it nobody’s watching The Dr. Synonymous Variety Show and Celebrity Roast.

If you would like to subscribe, I guess you can check out the neato image on the top of my sidebar. Just “feed” the RSS feed it links to into your RSS feed reader and off you go.

Personally I’d love it if that counter stayed right at zero, with a capital ZERO.

0 Readers = 0 Complaints of Boredom = TOTAL FREEDOM!
