Lookin’ at a thing on a screen
I’ve heard a lot of hype about T3 and Pirates of the Caribbean*, but I think the big sleeper hit of the Summer might be Dangeresque 2. I saw a clip of it today and the stunt work is amazing!

Blog Within a Blog: My New Computer 3.4.1
Just like with the last NewEgg.com shipment, Fed Ex couldn’t deliver it since there was no one to sign for it. Therefore I missed out on getting my P4C 3.0GHz processor today—a day earlier than expected too.
I did get a consolation prize though, since my Homestar Runner figures showed up instead!

Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!
Thanks to BVTMattyC, a new Easter egg was uncovered at the Homestar Runner site. Look what’s “Coming Soon” to the H*R Store!

Thatched Roof Cottages!!!
Trogdor the Burninator was mentioned in tonight’s series finale of Buffy the Vampire Slayer!
I never watched the shows (and I don’t know why not), but this alone automatically makes it one of my favorite TV series!

A Little Too Crazy-Go-Nuts
This is old news, since it happened last Monday, but the more I think of it the more concerned I become. In this week’s Strong Bad e-mail, it looks like Strong Sad is either unconcious or, worse, dead! Does this mean his brother Strong Bad really put that hit on him? I’m getting worried. What has happened to Strong Sad!?
Until we find out, here is a list of links related to the world’s greatest website:

Everybody Loves Homestar Runner!
They love it to such an extent that the site has become too popular. Mondays are the worst, when Strong Bad’s latest e-mail is unveiled. Today was particularly bad, since traffic was so great the site has been knocked offline. The Message Bored is still up, but I haven’t seen the homepage for several hours.
In the interest of helping out those who might not have been able to see this week’s e-mail, I am mirroring it here. This is a blatant breach of copyright and is extremely naughty, but I do it with good intentions and will remove the link and the files once H*R is back up and running.

Rodney Dangerfield Time
(Warning: this entry has way too many links.)
Seriously. I don’t get no respect.
Besides my own message board and the insidious SEI board, my favorite hangout is over at the Strong Bad Message Bored over at Homestar Runner.com. It however is plagued by frequent “bonks” due to traffic overload. To insure our good times could continue unabated, I started up a Homestar section on my message board, way back on July 23, so we could hang out there while the Bored recovered from its latest bonk. The Bored patrons did not seem very interested. They visited, looked the place over, and said they still preferred the original.
Recently, Lymhoid (of the Sooper_Dooper_Flash page of Homestar secrets) opened up a
message board, since the Bored was still suffering from severe bonks every couple days. Wow, what a great idea! Wish I‘d thought of it. To be blunt, his message board (as of now) is ugly, with black text on a navy blue background and lots of pop-up ads. And yet he’s lauded as a hero for providing this alternative.
It just ain’t fair, I tells ya.
But Foo! on them, since I’ve got another message board I’d rather go to anyway. So there.
