Prep for the certification exam went so-so yesterday. Took the practice exam so I know where my weak spots are so I’ll be studying those more this week. I’m not sure if the hardest part is that I neverdo most of this crap in daily work, or that I really just don’t give a shit. I hate wasting my educational effort on ephemera. It’s just a program API and configuration, entirely specialized and utterly worthless in any other context. Not in a “but professor, when are we going to use co-sets or need to know isomorphisms to the Viergruppe?” sense, but really, really useless unless you’re doing this exact thing with this exact release of the software.
I always think man, the people on You-tube used to be so creative. Remember when it first started how amazing it was? Yeah…see this video? How exciting is THIS?!?!?! The first back flip on You-tube
The first video I ever sent to Merv.
I’d like to thank lauraw for introducing me to this work of art…I believe it is part of the reason Merv fell madly in love with me……….three years after I showed him the video, but really…who’s counting?
The first cat video on You-tube……and as we all know, the Internet was created for cat and dog videos…..I’m pretty sure all videos uploaded to You-tube in 2005 were filmed with a potato.
Cybergoon squad…….the very first “weird side of You-tube” video.
And last, but not least, the VERY first video uploaded to You-tube by one of the founders enjoying his time at the zoo….my guess is, this guy is probably a rich mofo.
Also, it’s entirely possible I sprained my finger picking categories. I might die. I’ll miss you all.
Well, Jimbro apparently is busy and he asked me yesterday if I could fill in today, and he SPECIFICALLY asked me to do a Tool post (I swear), and I figured … “What the heck? What do I have going on?” Then Pat ended up in the hospital. But I put my priorities in order, pulled up my big-cis-girl gender-conforming panties, and got to business.
What *is* Tool? I mean, besides an alt- prog-art-post metal band? This, according to Maynard:
“Tool is exactly what it sounds like: It’s a big dick. It’s a wrench. … we are … your tool; use us as a catalyst in your process of finding out whatever it is you need to find out, or whatever it is you’re trying to achieve.”
Although not their first album, their popularity started with this song:
Good morning, and welcome to another edition of Hunky Hump Day. I can’t decide between this and this for today’s Easter egg, so you get both.
Song of the day.
Everyone shut your smollet hole and pay attention for a second. Donald Trump is god’s gift to conservatives. You may quibble with his demeanor, his communication style, or his brash NY sensibilities. You may not quibble with his results. As George Washington once said of the great Civil War general Winston Churchill, ‘I can’t spare this man. He fights.’
Ladies and gentleman, I believe this is the difference between the GOP and Trump voters. The CC republicans can’t and won’t fight, whereas his base is begging for it. Brigadier General Jay-Z said it best when referring to the chickenheads of the Afrikorps on the eve of the battle of Saratoga…
Now once upon a time not too long ago A nigga like myself had to strong arm a ho (never trump) This is not a ho in the sense of having a pussy But a pussy having no goddamn sense try and push me I tried to ignore ’em, talk to the Lord Pray for ’em, cause some fools just love to perform You know the type, loud as a motorbike But wouldn’t bust a grape in a fruit fight
If that doesn’t perfectly describe Jonah Goldberg I don’t what does. Loud as a motorbike, but couldn’t bust a grape in a food fight. Dammit man, do a few burpees and have some self respect.
Today’s model is a gorgeous and slim bed duster. You’re welcome! Please put down your ski masks, white face, clothesline, and red hats and welcome Antonella Khallo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11
Since one of the more popular current theories is that Jesus (i.e. our Lord and Savior, the second person of the Blessed Trinity, Iēsus Nazarēnus, Rēx Iūdaeōrum) was actually the just a collective hallucination by some sort of Judean mushroom cult (aka “Jesus was a mushroom!”, a variation on the equally ludicrous “stoned ape” theory of the invention of symbolic thought), please join me for some Advent/Christmas Eve music. It’s thematic ‘n’ stuff.
