This morning I got up early and had a wonderful run in the park. We've had heavy lightning storms every day for the past several days, and the river was quite flooded. Thus, the normal course was under a good bit of water, over two feet in some places. Consequently running was a little slower, and I had to take higher routes a couple of times. It was fun, though, and I got very wet. I haven't run through deep water in a long time...
Work happened, it was long and beating on complex vectors and matrices has its limits of fun-ness. I survived. I was quite amused by the setup for a conference tomorrow, its the Information Systems conference for all of HCJB, so there were "technical missionaries" from here in Elkhart, HQ in Colorado, and Quito, Mexico, and other outposts. They all brought laptops and were struggling to get all the systems on the local LAN. I couldn't help but think of all our LAN parties. "Your authentification stinks!" "It doesn't like Linksys?" "But that is the DNS server!" It was very amusing.
For some reason when I got home I was very tired, and I decided to take a nap. I slept for six hours.
So now I'm trying to avoid messing up my sleep schedule. I've just played a good bit of the new Thief 3: Deadly Shadows demo. It's alright, but I keep wishing it was more free-form, like Deus Ex. Ahh yes, my favorite game of all time. If any game were capable of making all console gamers pack up and go home, it would be Deus.
But I digress.
So, in my wanderings, I have found for you all a page of great interest. I present The Page of MST3K Link Goodness. I think in this we may find all the links we need for permanent happiness. Enjoy.
Here are some excerpts from the link'ed goodness. (pronounced link-ed)
Regarding a FAQ:
Big ol' honkin' disclaimer: The maintainers of this FAQ make no warranty that the information contained herein is 100 percent accurate, but, after all these years, we're confident that it's pretty darned close. As always, your mileage may vary.
Regarding an MST3K convention:
Episodes were run in three different rooms 24 hours a day; showings of episode 424- "MANOS": The Hands of Fate were standing-room-only.
Regarding the nature of "MSTies" (MST3K-ers):
But MSTies are NOT all sweetness and light. They can be cynical, hyper-critical and impatient. They do not suffer fools easily, they tend to question authority and can be downright harsh when confronted with anyone or anything they deem mediocre, stupid and/or pompous. The flip side of their loyalty as friends is that they can be formidable enemies.
Sound familiar?
I leave you to peruse the goodness on your own.
