A man flies on jet-powered wings. That is simply awesome. Time to start saving up for that down payment.
I seem to be on this strange 4-day cycle, as in lately, the gaps between updates have been 4-days long. This week was tiresome; got sick early in the week and missed two days of work. My head felt like someone was jabbing an icepick in my temple and then slowly making its way back. The rundown feeling and the sore throat didn’t help by far. Spent two days sleeping, taking antibiotics, and generally being “meh.”
Hopefully, that’s all behind me…
I found a pleasant surprise yesterday at my local comic shop: The Death of Captain America, volume 2: The Burden of Dreams hardcover. The latest volume of my new favorite comic was listed as due for release in late May, so I had to snatch this up. There were two covers to choose from; below is the one I picked up.
Saturday was busy, with having friends over for dinner and hanging out, so I’ll be reading this later today.
Just finished a late work session with a co-worker on upgrading our BlackBerry server. Always a bit nerve-racking, considering it affects several hundred users. Everything looks to have gone well, but I need to sort of unwind a bit before going to sleep (despite the fact that I am pretty tired). So here I am, babbling.
This has been out for a while, but I never saw the video before. I discovered El-P within the last year and he’s become one of my favorite hip-hop artists, falling into the “alternative” side of the genre. Here he works with Trent Reznor on the track. His mix of hip-hop, industrial, alternative, and more makes for a refreshing blend, as opposed to the tiresome gangster crap that prevails in the genre. Check it out.
