The first game involves asking questions which play off of a famous person's last name. The questioner asks a question to which the obvious answer is "No - [person's name]! So if one asked "Did Collateral actor have a bumpy flight? The response would come "No - Tom Cruise! You get the idea. Here's a sample of some of the more entertaining queries:. Q: Is nuclear physicist for you? A: No - Enrico Fermi! Q: Did American inventor have his daughter for lunch? A: No - Thomas Edison! A: No - Pierre Trudeau!

And then I found ten dollars. Now that the awkward pause is successfully broken (props to Mickey. Whatever props are. Some kind of structural support? Why would Mickey need them? In fact, I have now not one, not two, but three distinctly-uninteresting-to-the-point-of- blogworthiness rants. Pretty swish, eh? All right - first off: Rain. Rain? Q: If you were a super villain, what would your super power be? Convince the DOL to give me a driver's license? A: I think I would want to instill a greater musical ...

On the subject of fish, fish, fish. I'm sitting in my room trying to come up with a good away message for use while I play a computer game. I put something trite up and am about to leave be when Michele IMs me and comments on the inadequacy of it all. Considering the challenge, I replace the offending prose with a nice and random little lyric concluding with the word fish. Song of the moment: "Dedication" by the O.C. Supertones (three stars).

Okay, okay. I've stooped to posting yet another web survey result. But trust me. This one is worth it. Observe, for instance, the many eerie similarities between me and Tesla. Fear of human contact. Death ray. It's all there. You are Nicola Tesla, inventor of the Tesla Coil! A small child came along and ate all the creatures alive. After which you never again touched another insect. You returned to New York, incidentally toying with the nascent idea of something eerily like today's internet. Although...

On a related but side note, I was reading through my old e-mails when I found a beautifully terrible piece of real-world writing, which I thought was worth sharing:. From Great Britain's 1989 National minimum wage regulations). The hours of non-hours work worked by a worker in a pay reference period shall be the total of the number of hours spent by him during the pay reference period in carrying out the duties required of him under his contract to do non-hours work.".

Haven't you always wanted. Your own theme music? I think it started when I watched that VeggieTales movie with Tina. You know, the one where little guys do big things, too? Christine = Bill Withers - "Ain't No Sunshine When She's Gone". Mia = The O.C. Supertones - "Away From You". Ssonia = Five Iron Frenzy - "O Canada! Karina = The Company - "International". Jenny = The Pale - "Common Sense". Tina = VeggieTales - "Little People Can Do Big Things, Too". Lisa = Curious Fools - "Angel". Know a better song?

In case you're interested. I learned how to make pretty hyperlinks just for this. Please contribute; you know you can do better than me. If a lot of people jump on I might add new threads. Maybe rhyming couplets. Music of the moment:. Soul-Junk. Lo-fi Christian indie hop. Not much else like it out there. I like that they mention Havalina Rail Co. in their liner notes. Also impressive is their list of scripture references for each song. Posted by Rob at 3:35 PM. Posted by Rob at 11:31 PM. Boy on a Stick a...

I want to be a cult. I hate performance artists. And their art. It's sort of a general rule of mine, sprouting from years of modern-art cynicism and a steady diet of Doonesbury. But despite my strong bias, I have to admit that every once and a while a group of performance artists grab my attention with something particularly awesome. 'Project Brav New World' is just such a work. To answer this question, they have taken to (what else? Oh - here's a link. Posted by Rob at 3:18 PM. Who's Your Inner European?

What voice part are you? What is your favorite voice part? If I could have anyone's voice, I would choose. Steven Delopoulos (of Burlap to Cashmere). What year are you? Would you rather people mistook you for someone significantly older or younger? What is your major or intended area of study? What major would you definitely not pursue? Anything having to do with art, foreign language. Used to be Electrical Engineering. Hmm. What is your ideal job? What is your favorite class at Stanford so far? Isaiah 3...
