I think a lamp that was shaped like an ampersand (&) would be pretty great. In fact, a whole range of keyboard-oriented lighting products would be nice — somebody should get right on that. And give me money, of course, but that goes without saying. (Give me money.)
Anyway, ShinyPlasticBag has become the top site in the Canadian category on Blog Hot or Not. Fan-bloody-tastic. I think it’s weird that there aren’t more blogs in the Canadian category — at least, I’m assuming there aren’t many, if I’m at the top. Wacky stuff, and an interesting idea. Once people got sick of rating pictures, move to blogs — ingenious. Of course, one can’t really judge a web site fairly in, like, five seconds, but what can you do?
In other news, I got my political science paper (on Pierre Trudeau) back, and I got an A. Score on that — I’m happy. I was concerned for a while, because I’m so bad at writing essays. I’m in computer science for a reason (no other marketable skills). The midterm was today as well, and I think I did alright. Unfortunately, I didn’t feel like I had enough time, but my answers were reasonably decent and I was suitably prepared. Regardless, I can’t wait until I’m out of school for the year. It’s been a long winter and I’m ready for some “chillaxing” — plus, thanks to the miracle of my blog archives, I can figure out what sucks and doesn’t suck when it comes to random amusements. Ten more days until this blog turns a year old, but it’s not like I can celebrate a great opening moment or anything, but some of the stuff from back there was interesting. I’ll have to find something decent from roughly a year ago to link to on the officially one year mark.
Well, I’m going to stop blogging now. I’ve got to drive out to Bedford in a few minutes. Before I go, however, I’d like to point out that 69: A Love Story is pretty funny. I think it’s the squeaking sound effects that do it, methinks.
Update: Check out the hardcore pingu! It kicks ass.

I tried to read that. I really did. I think my attention span is getting shorter =/

Stuff I meant to include in this entry:
The official "world’s worst/most offensive pick-up line": Bitch, this dick won’t suck itself. This is from Pugs.
And interesting quote from Castro, when asked if he would rather have sex with a donkey or a pig: "The pig, because it would probably be like having sex with a fat chick."
My god, we’re all going to hell.

Mark, do you still have a copy of that puzzle game you made last year? I just remembered it and I’d like to play it again.
Mark@Floor
Dude that was like two years ago. Anyway, of course I still have it. Email me and I’ll send it to you.
Steve
I belive you can file that pickup line under things Pugs will never say to anyone he doesn’t already know hehe.
Apollo
Two years? That long ago? Damn, I certainly feel old. It seems like only yesterday…
Pugs
I got a worse one mark.
"Nice Legs, When They Open"
Pugs
Also I am just getting home from work.
Pugs
And what was that msn message you left me about anyways mark?. E-mail and let me know would ya.
Mark@Floor
"This dick won’t suck itself" is much worse than "Nice legs, when do they open".
Pugs
"Keep Cool Bitch I Got A Knife"
KEddy@home
"Nice shoes… wanna fuck?" is still my favorite.
Keddy all concerned
DUDE linkpool is bein spamed!
Mark@Floor
That’s true. Don’t worry, I’ve fixed it. Of course, now there are only seven links in the newest pool (I thought I had fixed this problem — I made a modification ages ago that kept at least twice as many links in the newest pool as were actually displayed, in case of a massive spam attack).
Oh, and I got a wicked video that’s Alizee performing J’en ai Marre live (that’s the original version of I’m Fed Up). It was recorded off of HDTV and it’s like 720×480. Great quality. And she’s hot.

I have been enjoying Top Down since you sent it on over. You really should share your various coding projects with the public. Top Down and Spindex were quality.
