Shorts

I thought of the third thing from yesterday!

I finally got around to downloading the new Weezer album. After one listen at work with the sound way down and one listen at home with the sound up, I’m rather disappointed. Maybe it’ll grow on me. Maybe I was expecting too much.

Ken Griffey’s been traded to the White Sox. I’m so disappointed in Griffey. I liked him. Now I must root against him.

Reuters reports on the world’s oldest jokes today. This one’s my favorite, from 1600 BC:

How do you entertain a bored pharaoh? You sail a boatload of young women dressed only in fishing nets down the Nile and urge the pharaoh to go catch a fish.

  1. Yes, the new Weezer is hit and miss, but the hits are true gems. I'm sure you've already played the shit out of the first three tracks, so pay another visit to "Thought I Knew" and "Dreamin'."

In 1789, the governor of Australia granted land and some animals to James Ruse in an experiment to see how long it would take him to support himself. Within 15 months he had become self sufficient. The area is still known as Experiment Farm. This is my Experiment Farm to see how long it will take me to support myself by writing.
