Jihad: The musical

Posted: Tuesday, July 31st, 2007 @ 10:25 pm in General | No Comments »

Seriously
Jihad the musical
http://www.jihad-the-musical.com/
with catchy numbers such as…
I wanna be like Osama
Turn and Ran (about the french of course)
I have no idea how to process that…I admit…I kind of want the soundtrack. It’s a small production for the Ediburgh fringe festival.

It’s changed, last time I took it, I had entertainer (ESFP), but the F/T split is apparently the least definite, so that makes sense.

WHen you are trying to save an image referring to an incorrect score gap analysis, don’t called bad_gap_anal.jpg
That just will give the QA department all kinds of wrong impressions about the bug you are trying to record.

I wonder if I save reading Harry Potter for Pennsic reading material (as in when I am going to sleep, bedtime material), will I manage not to get it ruined by spoilers until then?
Stayed home from work today. My headache of yesterday has lessened, but was still there. It’s certainly better now, not gone, but […]

sca camping this weekend was fun. The tent is good to go (though not rain tested this year….so here’s hoping). The event overall was quite well attended. They had more people staying the first night than attended at all last year. Many tents, ringing the field, many dogs and children, and most excellent fire pit […]

Here I go again hardly posting.
Life is trucking along adequately. Work is pleasantly busy, but not insane (in other words, just right). I am growing conscious of the fact that Pennsic is actually looming close. This weekend, I start my checklist…what do I need etc… I am largely ok. The tent will get tested in […]

I am just doing some research on cell phones, and damn if there are a LOT of choices out there. Last time I did this research, it was only for pay as you go models, and under a premise that it would be used just a few times a month…maybe. What qualifies as a good […]

Ratatouille

Brilliant.
I think this is Pixar’s best film yet. I have liked all of Pixar’s offerings, but some have been a bit more flat than others (I found Cars to be only … ok), but Ratatouille is funny, stylish, fun, good for kids, good for adults, long enough, not too long. Helen and I went to […]
