Text POst

So, I'm testing out a text based browser, for something I'm doing at work, and I decided to test it out on my blog...
Pretty nifty, no?

The Daily Show: September 7, 2005

Tonight's episode starts off with coverage on crisis management in a new segment called "Meet the F**kers" (go ahead and guess what that word is supposed to be).



The first F**ker is Michael Brown, director of FEMA. He was elected for this position in 2003 and is expected to start his job any day now... any day now.

Wish we didnt get these episodes like, 1 month late...

Hack your Netgear

This site is dedicated to the Netgear DG834(G) switch/firewall/modem/router series and its hacking.
Although the DG834(G) seems to be a great product, the quality and stability as well as the options and functions provided by the official Netgear firmwares appear to be insufficient for a good part of its users.


Therefore, these guys decided to have a look into the box, trying to put enough information together to be able to correct some of those issues. (Cheaply...)

What music do I like?

People always ask me this...

And my answer is always the same:

I like anything but RAP.

It's one C away from being CRAP:


Da Arijinal Vershin: "Befo’ I came up in the game these hoes didn’t show no loveThey see me in the club and used to treat me like a scrubThey wouldn’t holla cause my dollars wasn’t swoll enoughI bet they change they mind when them 80 4’s come rollin up"

The Translated version: "Before I became a star in the music industry women weren’t really that interested in me. They would see me in nightclubs and treat me like a loser. They wouldn’t talk to me because I didn’t make enough money. I bet they’ll change their minds when they see me driving around town in my car with expensive, fancy rims."

There Arno cartoonists like Arno anymore

Peter Arno (1904-1968) was a single panel cartoonist. Some of these cartoons are... not of this era..
