Halloween



Last night, Bobbee helped me make my first Jack O Lantern... kewl ain't it!

Thinking of all the cool creatures I will meet on this night
Ghosts & Goblins & Witches roaming the street in moonlight
Bowls of candy and goodies delicious and waiting in store
The sound of cute little footsteps as they approach my front door

Letting the children inside to drink beers
Razor blades hidden in Three Musketeers
Screams from the basement of kids begging to be set free
That's what Halloween means to me

Let's Go Coyo


- Gas to drive from Tucson to Phoenix:    $20
- Dinner with your girlfriend & her friend: $30
- Two tickets to a Hockey game:          $50
- Watching a crappy hockey team beat your local crappy hockey team... priceless

There are some things money can't buy, for a night full of embarrassment, there is Phoenix Coyotes.

Klingon Programmers

It's old but still pretty funny...


Top 10 things likely to be overheard from a Klingon Programmer:

10. Specifications are for the weak and timid!
9. You question the worthiness of my code? I should kill you where you stand!
8. Indentation?! - I will show you how to indent when I indent your skull!
7. What is this talk of 'release'? Klingons do not make software 'releases'. Our software 'escapes' leaving a bloody trail of designers and quality assurance people in its wake.
6. Klingon function calls do not have 'parameters' - they have 'arguments' - and they ALWAYS WIN THEM.
5. Debugging? Klingons do not debug. Our software does not coddle the weak.
4. A TRUE Klingon Warrior does not comment on his code!
3. Klingon software does NOT have BUGS. It has FEATURES, and those features are too sophisticated for a Romulan pig like you to understand.
2. You cannot truly appreciate Dilbert unless you've read it in the original Klingon.
1. Our users will know fear and cower before our software! Ship it! Ship it and let them flee like the dogs they are!

Here is where...

Lately, I've been unable to think of new things to post to my blog. Not because nothing is going on in my life, on the contrary, the past few months have been very exciting and eventful, but I'd rather not divulge publically, most of the things I've been doing... *wink* *wink* So anyways, I've come up with a new section where every once in a while, I will post an image from Google Earth of a place of some significance in my life. Here comes the first one... click on the picture to enlarge.


Location : Goldwater Engineering Building. Arizona State University. Tempe, AZ.
Significance: When all of my other, non-engineering major friends were out having fun (or sleeping) on weekends, here is where I spent countless hours, sitting in a tiny, cramped and stinkin' computer lab, desperately trying to finish my projects. Why did the lab stunk you ask? Lad, I have 3 words for you.... "Indian Grad Students". Those of you who have dealt with Indian Grad Students, you probably already know what I am talking about. Those of you who haven't, consider yourself VERY VERY LUCKY.

Top of the Muffin, To You!!!



Can you imagine filing the insurance claim for that car... the phone conversation might go somewhat like this...

Car Owner: Hello, I would like to file a claim, my car has been totaled...

Insurance Agent: I am sorry to hear that, were you in an accident.

Car Owner: No, my car was crushed by a giant muffin..... Hello? Hello?

Only in Tucson



This guy tried to rob a bank by taping his mouth shut and claiming that he has a bomb inside his mouth... genius!
