Random

So I was drving home from work last night, heading North on La Brea in Hollywood. As I was waiting to make a right turn onto Sunset, I watched the pedestrian traffic. People watching is one of my hobbies and I have found that the people walking around Hollywood after dark tend to be rather interesting.

So as I was waiting, I suddenly recognized one of the faces that was crossing the street.

It was Dean Haglund from the X-Files. Some of you might recall my previous encounter with him in a bar in Vegas.

Unfortunately I don't have automatic windows in my car, otherwise I might have been able to embarass myself further by calling out to him.

Hmmm... maybe that was a good thing.

Anyway. That was my random encounter.

Ahoy!

Arrrgh maties. 'Tis that time o' year 'gain.

My pirate name is:
Red Anne Rackham
Passion is a big part of your life, which makes sense for a pirate. You have the good fortune of having a good name, since Rackham (pronounced RACKem, not rack-ham) is one of the coolest sounding surnames for a pirate. Arr!

Insomnia

I can't sleep and I start my new job tomorrow... actually, that would be later on this morning now.

For those of you who haven't heard, I got a job as a Technical Support Engineer at fonality.com.

They seem to be good people.

Now for some funny, courtesy of xkcd:
