A New Blogroll Link
Posted by The Gimcracker in Blogging on 14. Jun, 2007 | 7 Comments
Check out my coworker Brad’s blog. I’m hoping that somehow my wife will somehow accidentally stumble upon my blog, somehow come across this blog post somehow, somehow happen to click the link to Brad’s blog somehow, and somehow accidentally coincidentally scroll down and see the pictures of his beagle “Bella”, and then somehow want to [...]
My Brother Turned Into One of the Great Writers of Our Time
Posted by The Gimcracker in Blogging on 12. Jun, 2007 | 2 Comments
I have to admit, I was surprised by how well my bro logged his adventures with a window salesman. I know he speaks for all people, anywhere, ever, in the history of the world, who have ever dealt with any kind of salesman, ever created, when he describes the utter agony of dealing with this [...]
2007 Movie Picks (Thus Far)
Posted by The Gimcracker in Movies on 12. Jun, 2007 | 9 Comments
You shouldn’t write posts like this because they become completely dated in like a month. You’ve seen these brand new movies, heard these brand new songs, or found this awesome brand new technology, but you forget about when you discovered LaserDiscs and you wrote a post about it as if you had discovered gold (of [...]
My Blog Exploded Into A Billion Pieces
Posted by The Gimcracker in Blogging on 05. Jun, 2007 | 8 Comments
But don’t worry, it’s back up now – minus a few of my most recent posts (namely the one about the seatbelt checkpoints). What happened? I host my own blog, which means my database is separate from the WordPress blog sea. So, if I lose my database I’m SOL. Guess what – I lost my [...]
Finally, Bruce Willis Says It
Posted by The Gimcracker in Movies, News on 16. May, 2007 | 2 Comments
Bruce Willis Tells Hollywood to Shut Up. That’s right, you heard me correctly. I’m so tired of Hollywood telling people how they should live their lives, what’s right and wrong, and how much better they are than us. I mean, just read my brother’s post about Sheryl Crow’s stupidity. Bruce, keep rocking my socks off. [...]
Dr. George Bebawi Speaks
Posted by The Gimcracker in Theory & Philosophy on 16. May, 2007 | 5 Comments
Dr. George Bebawi came to my church last night and lectured on the differences between Christianity and Islam. I was pretty impressed with his ability to “bash” Islam without really bashing Islam. This skill comes from his tenure at Cambridge University, where he taught Christian and Islam students in a very politically correct environment. I [...]
It’s Official, Yot Becomes Main Toon

I remember back when my paladin was edging closer and closer to the coveted level 60 by questing in the highest level places like the Plaguelands and Silithist. Now he’s sitting in Shattrath City drinking ale with a bunch of drunken Scryers. I got him all the way to 70 and bought him a nice [...]

In other words, thanks for the good word Arthur. Since the shout-out, my Technorati rating has skyrocketed to 2,042,882, and my authority has been boosted to 2! YES! If you don’t already, you should read Life In The Shadows. The dude has an English degree. Enough said. Plus he’s funny and humble and posts on [...]
The return of THIEF IN THE NIGHT
Posted by The Gimcracker in Music, Stuff On The Internet on 10. May, 2007 | No Comments
‘s website. LOL n00bs, L2P. I was going through some old projects and came across this mock-up of a new Thief in the Night website I was working on, when, alas, they broke up. Obviously the domain is no longer there, but I have hosted it on my site for archival purposes. There’s not much [...]
Top Fiver #2: Most Re-watchable Movies
Posted by The Gimcracker in Movies, Top Fivers on 08. May, 2007 | 13 Comments
Gyaaaaarrrr! Time for another edition of Ye Old Top Fiver, ya land lubbers! I saw Spidey 3 on Saturday at a brand new IMAX theater with 12 thousand jigawatts of Dolby sound (I’ve never figured out what other kind of sound there is besides Dolby) which got me all worked up in a fit about [...]
