Well, crap. This is my own fault. I completely forgot to set up a post for today before I left. Nor did I write any “backup” posts to toss up here in cases like this. So, instead, here’s a picture of Dame Helen Mirren with a machine gun. More on this awesomeness tomorrow, possibly.

Recovery All Around
I’m still a little sore and feeling somewhat post-op after yesterday’s wisdom tooth extraction, but two side effects have emerged. One is the occasional nosebleed, but I haven’t had one since yesterday (or last night, I think) and the other is these fucking hiccups. Seriously, hiccups annoy me. It makes it difficult for me to… Continue reading Recovery All Around
There Are Not Enough Expletives.
So. Instead of recording the IT CAME FROM NETFLIX! slated for today at the office, I brought my USB headset home and tried plugging it into the desktop system here at home. Windows didn’t like it. I run XP on my desktop since there’s no way on God’s greenish-brown Earth I can afford a legit… Continue reading There Are Not Enough Expletives.
There Ain't No Such Thing As A Free Post
I know, I know, the original quote is “There ain’t no such thing as a free lunch.” I’m enough of a Heinlein buff to remember that. But I’m also aware of the fact that posting stuff on here requires an investment of time, and for most people, time is money. Just like money buys information,… Continue reading There Ain't No Such Thing As A Free Post
Spit 'n' Polish: GameX
So this thing happened to me over the weekend. Here are some of the highlights. Yes, that’s me with Yahtzee of Zero Punctuation and Paul & Graham of Unskippable over at The Escapist. If you think that Yahtzee is unapproachable or caustic because of his yellow-background minimalist Internet persona, you’re a moron. Paul & Graham… Continue reading Spit 'n' Polish: GameX
Works in Progress
I mentioned in my last LiveJournal entry that with everything going on, despite working weekends to try and make ends meet, I don’t feel stagnant and things are moving forward. GameX begins tomorrow and I’m very much looking forward to it. I’m still not settled on the format for the video supplements for my Netflix… Continue reading Works in Progress
Internet Explorer the 13th: Jason Browses the Web
According to the BBC, IE6 has become the Jason Vorhees of the Internet. Why Jason Vorhees, you ask? It terrifies you if you see it, it will take a machete to most websites and the occasional running process on your PC, and it WON’T JUST F—ING DIE. So we here at IQnection can expect calls… Continue reading Internet Explorer the 13th: Jason Browses the Web
Running a Bit Behind
The good thing about having a real job is keeping busy and feeling like a professional, from constructive meetings to wall-banging over client idiocy. The bad thing is less time to invest in things like writing and blogging. I’ve known what I wanted to blog about but haven’t had the time during the day to… Continue reading Running a Bit Behind
Blog Schedule
It’s been too long since I’ve updated this space, and for that I apologize. I think what I need to do is lay out a schedule for updates and stick to it. So, here’s my plan: Mondays – Movies & Events. Review of movies I’ve seen, news on upcoming features from various sources, discussion of… Continue reading Blog Schedule
