It’s a little late (though not terribly so), but I decided I’d post a few X-Mas pictures… (continued)

iPod, uPod, we allPod for iPod

I got an iPod last night… (continued)

City of Heroes Site

I’ve now sunken to that special level of hell reserved for those who make a website devoted to a game they play. (continued)

Webcam musings

I’ve started using a webcam to keep in touch with my girlfriend (no, not like that, you sickos), since we’re located far away from each other right now. It’s really nice in some ways, but also frustrating in others. (continued)
