Mark Warner Makes Campaign Stop in MMORPG

Here’s some MLP (Mindless Link Propogation) for you. Former governor Mark Warner and possible 2008 Presidential candidate made a campaign stop in Second Life, the MMORPG (massively-multiplayer-online-role-playing-game) which I know almost nothing about, but which always seems to have mildly famous people showing up in it. This kind of blew my mind – it may [...]

Reasons not to move to Delaware

We’re in … Delaware. When Wayne’s World came out (I’ve never seen Wayne’s World btw) I lived in Delaware. My friends thought that the producers of WW made a different version of the movie for each state: “We’re in … Michigan,” “We’re in … Texas”, etc. They didn’t realize that Delaware is a trash hole. [...]

I saw Saw.

I don’t know how you can resist a movie with a tagline like See Saw, I certainly couldn’t (at least I couldn’t resist it on Netflix). You have to have some major marketing cajones to go to press with such a succinctly punny tag. MY HAT IS OFF TO YOU LION’S GATE. Saw is intense, [...]

Macacagate.

Add another one to the list shitty things that bring press to Richmond. Thanks, thanks a lot for this one Senator. Feckin’ Daily Show even. While I think that the odds of the Senator even knowing “macaca” is a European racial slur are pretty low, the whole situation sure hasn’t done anything for public image [...]

RICHMOND: It is awesome.

Found over at Double Vision. And yes, I know, “if I love Pennsylvania so much, I can go back there.” But I can love Richmond, too. I love the women with the same blond helmet bob who wear twelve silver bracelets at once and have beribboned and monogrammed purses and never leave the house without [...]

CYCLING: It is awesome.

So this Sunday I rode fifty miles on a bicycle. Which I feel is pretty crazy because it makes me goal of cycling to Williamsburg seem realistic and doable. At the same time it made any thoughts I had of cycling to the beach pedal off into the sunset(ha!). Ah well. In addition to longer [...]

Vote on the Gay Marriage Amendment

Jim Bacon has a great post with some great comments on the proposed Gay Marriage Amendment to the Virginia Constitution. And OMG Jim is a republican and wants to “uphold the institution of marriage” but still finds the language of the amendment disturbing. So even if you don’t care about voting for your local and [...]

This is what I did today.

I beat Super Mario Brothers.

Taylor Behl: Fawley enters plea

Full story here. The interesting bits: The judge in Mathews County Circuit Court ordered him to serve 30 years. The judge also agreed to drop unrelated child pornography charges. Benjamin Fawley, 39, entered an Alford plea. That means he’s not admitting guilt but acknowledging that prosecutors had enough evidence to convict him in the slaying [...]
