Who aduits the auditors of the auditors?
Declaring that “the auditors will be audited, the accountants will be held to account,” Bush warned CEOs that “no boardroom in America is above or beyond the law.”
Maybe GWB will do the math himself :P
Oh, and here’s my latest masterpeice ;)

Gang Wars
I have been spending the better part of the last 24 hours playing a very addicting online game called Gang-Wars. You can check it out at Gang-Wars.com. I even sent $10 by paypal so I could get extra turns and participate in a more fast-paced version called l33t-wars.
On one hand its something to keep me occupied but I am also worried I am becoming too obsessed with it ;) I even made a little...
I gave a preso to do with Windows to a Mac Club!
Well last night we had our second PUMUG meeting of the year and I think it went pretty well. It drug in a few of the recaps of the new stuff apple introduced: iCal, iSync, iWhatever ;). But overall it was good.
Jacqui talked about the new iPods, (one of which I might just get soon ;)) and I did a short presentation on Microsoft’s new Remote Desktop Client. The reason this is pretty cool is...
Happy Birthday Ashlie
Looks like you’re 20 today. Sorry I don’t know if i’ll be able to call you today, but I just wanted you to know that I remembered, and you’ll be getting your belated birthday present when I come back on the 2nd of August :) Have a good day!

Workin, Apple Ads, PHP
Well I have spent the better part of the past day engrossed in writing an XML database sort of thing for the new PUMUG website. I would like to think that I created it with some foresight in mind; but as we all know it doesn’t seem quite that way when everything is said and done ;)
Basically its a News Content Management system that I’ve adapted to operate on XML files rather than from a...
*brap*
I think my stomach is producing battery acid this morning :O. Remind me to never eat five peices of garlic bread after broccoli and cheese hamburger helper right before bed :).
Do you think that purdue will let me use this picture for Urban Entomology?

Its a frustrating day
Well it would appear that Will had a very productive night last night ;) Ever since he quit his job and got the gamecube he’s been staying up and playing all night.
Having been destroyed unmercifully on 3 occasions yesterday by Dr. Mario in Super Smash Bros. Melee, I charged Will with obtaining him for me :) So I checked the gamecube this morning and he got him! And not only Dr. Mario but...
To the dismay of Jacqui
Jacqui is a little irked by the fact that Ebay is purchasing Paypal. To the tune of $1.5B =-o. I guess I am too, but you can’t be too suprised with the symbiotic nature of the two.
Who knows what this will mean. Will the Internet’s first foray into a truely digital bank be squash before it ever had a real chance to mature? Reverted to a mere auction site’s red-headed stepchild? whatever,...
Had a great time in Indy!
Well I had a fun time at Buffalo Wild Wings in Indy hanging out with the people of ArsTechnica!
We ate food, drank, talked about Ars, life, technology sites, geeky shit, Tivos, Star Trek, and lots more. It was a really fun time by all. I took a lot of pictures and they are all available courtesy of Purdue’s webhosting :D
Indianapolis Ars Meet Gallery
Only 1.5 months left to go until the...
Impressive, eh?

Indy Ars Meet today!
Welp, today is the day. I am a little nervous about going and meeting people that I have only talked with online, but it should be ok ;) I used to do this back in the day when I was on Bulliten Boards. We would have GTG’s or get-to-gethers at a bar on sundays (they aren’t allowed to operate on sundays) so kids like me were allowed.
We’d play pool, talk, hang out and just have a good time. ...
Season 3
I’m a weak, weak man. Look what I bought.
I’ve already watched 2 episodes! <3 <3 <3

Independance Day
Did you know that Independance Day has only existed since 1941? Is it just me or did the first two world wars really screw america over?
I mean afterwards we have this huge inflated head. Boisterous, mean, pushy. Not without reason mind you, we just got a bit cocky :P
McCarthyism, Nationalism, many isms :P It just seems like the first two World Wars kinda scared us and we kneejerked into...
Minority Report, Webaphobia
Well we went and saw Minority Report yesterday afternoon. I can say that it kept ahold of me the entire time. The plot twists, no matter how cheesy, were interesting enough to keep the story going.
The special effects were great but maybe a bit too presumtuous for 2054 :). Overall a good movie, and I liked it.
Ok next topic. Who are these people who aren’t knowledgable about getting...
