scottgalvin.com: greetings for the new year from the temple of snow and hiccups! bouncing and i are whoring it up here in telluride. Oh, and the "present day" feature is oh-so-very-very-BROKEN. (Like half of Ted's new temple)
2004-01-02 15:08:19
Bitscape: yeah, that's a side effect of the revised default article display. I should probably fix it at some point...

Jäger brings jaegerfesting back up, after thirty-six hours down

Yanthor: Here's a quote that made it into my personal quotes file:
2004-01-09 08:34:06
Yanthor: "...blogs [are] the electronic musings of those who can't bear to keep their thoughts to themselves."
-- a Wall Street Journal article on page D1, December 4, 2003.
2004-01-09 08:34:12
Yanthor: I kid you not, that was in the article body copy itself. That is not a quote by someone the WSJ author interviewed.
2004-01-09 08:34:50
Bitscape: lol
2004-01-09 15:12:01

Bitscape: Welcome to America. Please give us the finger. [sfgate.com]
2004-01-10 19:34:55
bouncing: The practice of sending prisoners abroad for torture has been around for a very long time. Nothing new, but it is a reminder of the need to crack down on the CIA. (Remember that the CIA trained and equipped Osama bin Laden)
2004-01-10 20:49:38
bouncing: Of course, when we capture the dictator or Iraq, we give him a free dental exam -- ironic that many Americans can't get that.
2004-01-10 20:52:54
bouncing: Reminds me of something that happened at the airport in Denver. I'll go blog it now.

Bitscape: I found something that works even better than Battle Priests against Rowsby Test. If you happen to be lucky enough to find the High Priest tech, they can totally pulverize a company of Void Beasts.
2004-01-11 15:30:02
Bitscape: High Priests are also quite effective against other types of elite units. Unfortunately, finding the tech for them is rather rare. :(

Yanthor: You need an option on your poll for "Huh?" I don't have a clue what those options mean.
2004-01-20 11:02:35
Linknoid: A quick google search (selecting all the words and right click "Web search for..." strongly suggests that the reference is a TV show called firefly which Bitscape tends to ramble about occasionally
2004-01-20 12:52:34
Linknoid: Although the research to find if any option would be desirable is more effort than it's worth
2004-01-20 12:53:12
Yanthor: Linknoid: uh...duh. I should have thought of google. I keep forgetting it can answer almost any question, especially relating trivia.
2004-01-20 13:43:58
Jäger: Firefly is simply excellent.
2004-01-20 18:23:02
Bitscape: I suppose I should have included a CowboyNeal type option, although Serenity sort of falls into that category. If you're not sure, then you must be a ship. ;)
2004-01-20 20:31:33
Bitscape: meterific, I know that a lot of people had a similar reaction to Dean's speech last night. I saw it as an optimistic way to rouse the troops to remind them that just because he didn't win Iowa, it's far from over. We'll see how he does in New Hampshire.
2004-01-20 20:39:11
Bitscape: Firefly is indeed an awesome show. It holds up will, even with repeat viewings (some episodes even get better on 2nd or third viewing). Highly recommended. I rambled at length about it here: [bitscape.org]
2004-01-21 01:21:17
Bitscape: Due to the exceptionally high dvd sales, it is likely to get big screen treatment soon. Then maybe some of those unresolved plot points can be addressed.

Chadwick: does anyone have a link to that funny teckno song with dean's 'yeah!' speach?
2004-01-22 07:37:42
bouncing: Bush pre-emptively invaded a soverign nation based on what he knew to be lies. And Dean's unstable because he makes angry "mannerisms"? I won't vote for anyone who's not angry about the status quo -- he should be angry.
2004-01-22 08:52:28
bouncing: BTW, Bitscape... I ordered a copy and viewed it. I can mail it to you if you want to take a look...[www.truthuncovered.com]
2004-01-22 08:54:19
Bitscape: Chadwick, I know there have been several remixes of Dean's speech floating around. I downloaded this one (this one is very short, it might not be what you're looking for) last night. Enjoy. [bitscape.org]

2004-01-25 23:58:44
bouncing: A madman indeed.
2004-01-26 10:46:47
Bitscape: Here is an example of substantive issues-based journalism. If they really want to raise doubt about Dean, why isn't the "real media" asking these types of questions? [news.com.com]

Bitscape: Joe Trippi resigns from the Dean campaign. That's a major shakeup. I still support Dean, but this doesn't bode well. [www.theleftcoaster.com]

bouncing: On the plus side, Bush's re-election numbers are in decline.
2004-01-29 10:05:50
Bitscape: Yes. That is a promising sign. Also, high voter turnout in Iowa and New Hampshire indicates more interest in the election. People are waking up to the Bush disaster, and want to turn it around.
2004-01-29 15:28:16
Bitscape: Politics is a dirty, dirty business. Stories like this make me wonder if Kerry would really be any better than Bush. [www.dailykos.com]

2004-01-29 21:20:01
bouncing: That story could be not entirely accurate. We'll see when it comes out, but the Dean campaign is open enough that a smaller organization could have done it without the Dean for America's support.
2004-01-29 21:20:41
bouncing: It was, BTW, Joe Trippi who urged Dean to open his campaign up to the grass roots. This might be one side-effect: there is growing evidence that Dean's Iowa organization was sometimes unprofessional, that it may have overwhelmed the public and grown out of control.
