Everybody! Everybody!
One of the best flash cartoon sites on the web. Look for hidden easter eggs on the main pages, check out the "strong bad" e-mail, and enjoy the kid-friendly, yet riotously funny humor and voices.
This site was started by two guys who love programming in flash. They brought in another guy to do all the voices, and their parents help them by shipping out and silk-screening t-shirts. If you haven't been introduced to the homestar runner, now's your chance.
Good introductory ones are the "video games" strong bad e-mail, the "first time here" link on the main page, and the "for kids" strong bad e-mail, as well as any of the cartoon shorts.
Enjoy--let me know what you think!

Yikes . . . buried alive
So . . . there's really no excuse for not putting interesting tidbits of stuff on this blog, like how I got lost in China or Korea, or extracted some rare mineral from the lead of my pencil, or even how I managed to find solution to the Euthyphro problem. These tidbits of stuff may be interesting (at least they're interesting to me, but I confess it's late) but they're certainly not true.
The truth? Well, that's far more mundane. The truth is that I have been buried alive in the crush of work that has overwhelmed me, trapping me at the bottom of a Lake Baikal of paper. There may be interesting things there, but there's no way (and no time!) to get the word out to people. So, consider this my apology. Sorry for being so late and sporadic on updating this blog. I won't promise not to do it again--I think we all know the foolishness of that empty vow. No, I won't make any promises, simply offer my apologies.
Interested in what I'm up too? Take a second and go to www.parkview.com. Without getting too specific, know that I know almost every inch of that website. Also take into account the fact that I know that a lot of that content is out of date, aside from the website being pretty terribly designed and written. Putting fact 1 with fact 2 should yield an answer, but if you're still confused, post a comment and I'll supply you with an answer.
I've taken up the game of pool. The woman that I work for, who also happens to be the president of the company, used to be a Big Ten billiards champion. She likes to boast (though she has a penchant for exaggeration) that she put herself through school hustling pool. Even if that's not true, it is true that she is a very very strong player, and I've been learning a lot about pool. They say that 8-ball and 9-ball are similar to chess, mixed with golf. While this may be true to a certain extent, I'm hoping it's not entirely true, because I'm pretty poor at both of those sports. I'll keep you posted on my progress--we're having a tournament at work as I write this.
Megan has been sick--she sees the doctor tomorrow. Keep her in your prayers.
Coming up next--a short description of a trip to Boston. stay tuned in.
