My Addled Brain

Currently playing: John Mayer - Room for Squares

Life is a little sweeter this week. On friday, I replaced my ailing 17" monitor with a beautiful new 19" Samsung flatscreen. I love it. I can actually work on several things at once, and have a browser up to view my progress as I go, all without having to search for my window amidst the clutter. I’m acutally tearing up right now, just thinking about it.

Well, perhaps not tearing up. But I do feel a bit misty right now. It’s freaking GORGEOUS, people!

In fact, this new monitor has inspired an addition to the site: introducing My Addled Brain’s Text-O-Rama system! Peep this, yo: The two new buttons below the menu will allow you to resize the text on this, and every other page on the brain, thus allowing the visually impaired to see what they were missing out on. After all, 10px Verdana isn’t for everyone. Let me know how this works out for you; I might be encouraged to take this a step further. But remember: I am intrinsically lazy, so don’t bet the farm on it.

Robby is not quite as enamored with the monitor as I am. He feels I should be donating more money to his "project". Personally, I’m certain he’s raiding my coin cup for quarters every night. Not sure what he’s going to do with quarters, mind you…

* Look, I’ve already accepted the fact that you’re not a fan of my work. That’s fine. But I still need you to drive me to Chuck-E-Cheese! Only 4000 more tickets until the Blast-Matic 2000 Raygun is MINE! Then, all shall tremble before me! *

Oh, you mean the one that goes BLEEP-BLEEP-BLEEP?

* NO! Of course not! That would be the Zap-Rite XL. That’s a pop gun, for crying out loud! The Blast-Matic is an engineering marvel! And it only needs 2 AA batteries! Besides, it goes BEEYOO! BEEYOO! FEAR MY MIGHTY BEEYOO! BEEYOO! *

And you people were worried about him…

New movie review: Insomnia

Creepy thriller from
the man that made Memento.
Pacino rules all.

Oh, I would be a complete bastard if I didn’t mention this: our good friend Andy has created a nifty animated gif advertising my site. I’ve placed it above for your perusal. Turnabout is fair play, so here’s the ad for his site:

He made that one himself as well. What do I look like, some kind of artisté or something?
