Lucas goes postal
Tuesday, April 1st, 2008

Like a snowstorm on Hoth, the 30 year anniversary of Star Wars is quickly approaching. To commemorate this historic event the United States Post Office is releasing a new line of Star Wars stamps. These 41 cent stamps (why oh why couldn’t they be one penny more?!) will be available May 25th and feature water [...]

Amok ado about nothing.
Monday, March 31st, 2008

Yesterday I created a chiptune version of the classic theme to the Spock V/ Kirk fight to the death. You can hear my version here. Now I’m wondering what to do with it? I originally had my interest in the music, which originally appeared on the “Amok Time” episode of Star Trek, when my friend [...]

Gygax rap
Wednesday, March 5th, 2008

Here is a short song I put together regarding the passing of Gary Gygax (the co-creator of Dungeons and Dragons). I was inspired to make it when I opened my rss aggregator this morning and saw dozens of my friends writing about Mr. Gygax. As I surfed around, I kept seeing similarities in their personal [...]

TheSixtyOne, Scrabbel Video, and vote in the CDD
Saturday, January 12th, 2008

I have a new hobsession (obsession/hobby), it’s watching the Crate Digger Death-match votes as they come in. I tend to keep a tab open and check the current CDD poll status as I’m waiting for another page to load. It’s been exciting, Bomarr had an early lead, but D-Form has had a slow, but steady [...]

Z-20
Monday, December 31st, 2007

My friend, fellow nerdcore journalist, and co-organizer of the Crate Digger Death-match,  Z. from Hipster, Please!, got his first Boing Boing today! Can I get a w00t woot?!
Z.’s new found Boing status is in regards to his fantastic d20 tattoo he got yesterday.
Way to go Z.
It actually reminds me of a certain ex-girlfriend. She was [...]

The Crate Digger Death-match
Monday, December 31st, 2007

New year, new projects, it’s like “bam!”.
“Bam! Bam! Bam!”
