It’s a lot more exciting than it sounds: drunk kids throwing ping pong balls into cups, bouncing balls into cups at unlikely angles, and doing all manner of things that people will do when they have nothing but time on their hands.

I’ll be spending most of tomorrow working on Dethroner, continuing our design “refresh”—don’t worry; it’s not too different—and making some plans for the rest of the year. Nothing terribly interesting, I’m afraid. I do hope to be harvesting a lot of mushrooms this weekend, with one cluster of pearl oyster already about to explode and [...]

It’s a completely pointless exercise, it’s wasteful, it proves nothing worthwhile…but damn I’d have loved to have seen this in person. I think they’re pussies for not putting a driver in the cars. What the hell are roll cages and helmets for, [...]

To paraphrase Eddie Izzard, on behalf of all the executive transvestites, or in my case, even the associate transvestites, I humbly ask all the fucking weird ass transvestites to cut the shit out, please.
