Finally broke down and ate at our new IHOP. To make it back to the truck, I may need a wagon. Or a bucket.

Anyone know this? Not easy to google so far. FW: "my router is asking me if I want to add a WAS Client? Any idea what that is?"

Sat down to spn dinner, turned on U7.org’s Very Best of Art Bell station just as an old Ghost to Ghost show started 🙂

Art Bell is an actor playing the part of Art Bell. A guy doing an X-Files kinda show. If he ever found "the truth" he wouldn’t have a show.

I always get that feeling. RT @vasquesso: I love the feeling I get when I pull into albuquerque

I only watch movies – my brother makes them. http://youtube.com/JWCornelius Not that I’m jealous or anything. Sigh. Anyone want coffee?

And that last was a segue to post http://youtube.com/lvfilmclub – the efforts of my brother and his crew. Their latest is easily my fave.

Every time I watch The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou I vow I will begin a serious exploration of David Bowie music and never have.

Lately, I am convinced that The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou is (bold)The Perfect Wes Anderson Film(/bold). All his best qualities in one.

Come for Owen Wilson actually playing a part, not just being himself and stay for the truly stunning but under-used boat cutaway set.

181.fm changed some stream urls again, so until I re-add The Point, I’m on Chill, being reminded why it’s usually an evening choice for us.

I guess the 181.fm Chill music is called downtempo electronic? Think Bjork, Moby, most of Garden State soundtrack (Frou Frou, Zero7, etc.)

RT @vanillaweiss2: @ChickFila come open up a place in Alamogordo, NM. PLEASE!!

Saw a headline in the kmart checkout, said "KIDS IN NACHOS!", blinked, now it more reasonably said, "KIDS IN CHAOS!".

@MicheleSims1 But… New Ben & Jerry’s. If that isn’t a "need to", I don’t know what is.

Just woke up the swamp cooler. Last year, it was april 12 when i did it but i noted it would have been nice to have done it a week earlier.

I use expletives in to-do lists in pathetic protest. "Wash the -bleeping- dishes" "Fix the -bleeping- window on the -bleepbleeped- truck"

Yikes. Netflix IW has added 1981’s Heartbeeps. In HD no less. Gonna’ have to spn that one post haste.

Overheard, the other day, something about a church organist "minding his keys and pews".

SWEEEET!!! Hi-def even!! @vudufans: 99 Cent Movie of the Day for 3/14 is "Pi" http://fb.me/S9crXGLq

Wait, what? RT @feedfliks: Toy Story 3 http://feedfliks.com/movie/toy-story-3/102613 is coming to #netflix #streaming on 04th April

A big guy in a dress, in a gulley (IW&WSB), looking around suspiciously, throwing something under the road. Maybe this town isn’t so boring.

And, it was more of a mumu. He was then running to a car waiting for him on that little side road there, I forget the name.

But wait, there’s a new business being built! And a Coming Soon sign! It says Tractor Supply Company?? I take it back, this town is boring.

Tried again what I’m calling the japanese pro vacpot method. Temp stability seems unachievable to me, so I’m not sure what to think.

I figured out how to stream the shows from DrDemento.com to the PSP so we are listening to the first current show I’ve heard in 13 years.

Btw, the DrDemento.com archive goes back to the 70s, they’re $2 or $4, m3u stream only. We vow to only listen to the latest every week.

Though, we’ve been loving the two Art Bell net radio stations (she’s a long-time X-Files fan) so no shortage of great spn listening choices.

Terra chose Hellraiser for tonight’s spn. The little I remember, I think it’ll be a great choice.

Everytime I see a cenobite in this movie, I think "mmmm, Cinna-Bites…"

I keep thinking about homemade ginger ale, root beer, etc. – this doesn’t look so tough… Homemade Ginger Ale — http://bit.ly/BRgMk

What do you mean I never play children’s music for Wesley? The radio is on all day! Have you *heard* current pop music??

But seriously, you should hear Wesley’s crooning warble (or is it a warbling croon?) on "Jar of Hearts". I’ll have to video it.

My constant dilemma – I’m in a mood to experiment with my vacpot, but not in a mood to drink coffee. This is why I need constant guests 😛

I go through phases but in general I don’t actually drink much coffee. My real passion is for making it – the science and art.

E.g., haven’t had coffee today, doubt I will; made it for spn last night, none before; etc.. Don’t even drink much caffeinated soft drinks.

Though, it might be what I’ve learned from coffee – don’t like the side-effects. Like insomnia. I’m not the best sleeper to begin with.

And I have to be desperate to use coffee as a stimulant. Usually low energy is because I’m not properly hydrated/fed – coffee makes it worse

And hey, speaking of coffee, I’ve noticed that both Lowe’s (grocery store) and Walmart no longer carry the local Olive Branch coffee.

Don’t know if I even care anymore, but here it is. RT @PSLifeStyle: New blog post: Free Realms Gets a Release Date http://bit.ly/eMeqas

RT @DaveMustaine: My prayers are with the people of Japan. A tsunami is scheduled to hit La Jolla, Hawaii at 8:41 a.m. If you pray, good …

Waking up and seeing a msg from the EmergencyEmailNetwork is very rare, always unsettling. But it is invaluable. http://emergencyemail.org

Checking in on http://hermosawave.net/webcam – it points at a spot I used to waste time on Hermosa Beach, CA, the apt was just up the strand

This place is starting to remind me of the Genesis planet. Could proto-matter be the explanation?

According to @kcbs_morning Crescent City, CA, "35 boats crushed in harbor and all docks in harbor swept away" – more on their twitter stream

Gotta say, of all the streaming world news network options I’ve tried on the PS3, Al Jazeera English is the best.
