Mammon slept. And the beast reborn spread over the earth and its numbers grew legion. And they proclaimed the times and sacrificed crops unto the fire, with the cunning of foxes. And they built a new world in their own image as promised by the sacred words, and spoke of the beast with their children. Mammon awoke, and lo! it was naught but a follower.

Another passage from the Book of Mozilla
Cuz you don’t always die from tobacco.
Screw the stork! Don’t smoke, I don’t. Why waste the money? I love these anti-smoking ads. I really do.
Wheee ha hah!
Now that Firefox Download Day has come and gone, it’s time to bring back an old Firefox video:
Twitter Digest…
Since I have nothing to blog about, I might as well turn fourteen days of tweets to prose.
June 1st, I decide to take a new web design collaboration job while installing Adobe Air Alpha for Linux. Once installed, I tried twhurl and found it sucked, and that Air is not ready for Ubuntu. The next day, I participate in yet another phone party with Justine Ezarik and told her to turn off her iPhone after it violated my ears with the GSM noise. I can hear it now:
>> Cracked.com Jingle: It’s an iPhone etiquette tip from iJustine
>> Justine: Under any circumstance, Never, EVER tell me to turn off my iPhone. EVER.
>> Cracked.com Jingle: iJustiiineee.
Speaking of Justine, what came first, http://hellotxt.com/l/z6IC or http://www.whentwitterisdown.com/? Oh well. They both are wacky in their own ways. Prop 99 and 98 both suck, and so does Phoenity Aura on Firefox for Linux. Hopefully a GTK icon theme might reverse the suckage. After reading an assessment about a Wikipedia article, stating “if this article is to become Featured-class, it needs to be clear that we are tracking her career closely.” I ask myself “Why does it seem that you need to Net-stalk a notable person in order to get the info needed to earn a (G)A-class article on Wikipedia?” I seem to want to build biographical articles much less now. I’ll go back to tech and religion.
You suck at Photoshop is the most twisted collection of Photoshop tutorials ever, but they are useful as well. My friend shows me a pretty accurate pic of Tifa from Final Fantasy VII. She’s pretty hot if you tell me. Kinda like the new Guitar Hero for the DS. I’m definitely getting it when it drops. I’ve Joined the EverWars MMORPG: Play along at: http://hellotxt.com/l/KmsX. Hey, it’s Wii compatible. Life is boring, and nothing really interesting was mentioned on twitter, even tho my brother had a graduation party. Something I forgot to tweet.
I’ve tried twitterphone and I’ll need to learn to vocalize my words better. NKOTB really didn’t have to come back. The weather got crazy, and the weather people haven’t been good at predicting the temps. The blog battle between two people is sad but funny. Just because I use Linux as my primary OS, doesn’t mean I don’t like Microsoft. I find Ubuntu faster, and more organized than Windows. But I still have Windows if I need it.
It’s the return of… No wait, you’re kidding
The Bacud Blog has opened for a sneak peek of my new layout. What do you think. Oh and while on the subject, I too have joined Plurk. A social timeline which I refuse to call a Twitter clone.
No on Prop 98; No on Prop 99.
It’s that time again, to bring Proposition politics back to the table. And luckily the June election only has two similar ballot measures. Both have to do with the ability for the Govt. to force-buy your property. Look online for their explanations. In a nutshell, the creators of 98 royally messed up with the rent control. And prop 99 doesn’t do anything for the people which imminent domain matters to. And besides, they’re both trojan props. They both suck and they both should be voted to hell.
Finding Lulu
While strolling around Artists’ Alley at the 2008 FanimeCon, I saw this nice pic of Lulu being sold for 10 dollars. I tried to find a better deal. More Fanime bloggin coming soon.

Back again
It’s been a long week, most of it without my laptop, as my brother loves using it. However, I got it back with two horizontal lines of screwed up pixels. I’ll have to get it brought into repairs, which means I’ll be computer-less even more this summer.
Speaking of summer, I’m now down to about a day and a 1/2 until my final exam in my server side class. I hate to study, because I’m a sponge, and If I purposely try to soak it, I’ll wring out some other important stuff, so I’m taking what I already know and skimming some of the material that I may have forgotten. Hopefully I’ll pass well. I’ve done so well in that class, unlike my other ones, (other than my XML class, which was a B). My polsci class is epic fail, as I missed at least 12 class meetings, and my SQL class which I dropped, and everybody is planning to go low with.
We’ll do it live!
So this goes to show that Bill O’Reilly’s main reason for being employed by Fox news is that he’s a ranting nutcase who appears to know what he’s talking about, even when it’s mostly just crap.
