Friday stuff

Today should be the day that I finish the Great Cube Move! Yay!

Thanks to crystalrowan, I now know that there's a CD of Yo-Yo Ma playing Ennio Morricone! Naturally, I need this, although I'm disappointed to see that my favorite Morricone score isn't on the CD.

Hey, look! nihilistic_kid has been slashdotted!

Yesterday, I came home to find that I'd won the monthly contest at asontv.com, and I now own a mini 6-in-1 Kitchen Wonder Grater! Yes, it slices and makes julienne fries. It does not, however, dice. Ah well.

Broken toe update: Still hurts, but it's not something I notice most of the time. Swelling and discoloration is gone, and I'm going non-buddy-taped today. The only major problem is that I have a habit of cracking my toes that's almost subconscious, and if I even flex the toe, it tends to hurt. That's not as much of a problem during the day, though, given that policy of wearing shoes at work.

Emory announced their Senior Day speaker (the idea behind Senior Day was to allow for a popular speaker to balance the important/educational graduation speakers, as a way to get both sides to stop bitching about the other), and it's Peyton Manning.

Finally, it looks like Michael Mann's first draft of his new Miami Vice script has been leaked, and Filmforce gives it a review over here.

So, even though you won the contest, it was still no dice?

Argh, I've broken both my pinky toes in much the same way you did yours. I found that wearing shoes with lots of support (a DM-type oxford, for example) helped. My comfortable moccasins weren't. ;-P

And I was left with a fairly accurate weather-predicting device. (Only one of them does it.)

*nod* I'm wearing shoes that keep it pretty solidly in place, and don't let it bend. And when I slipped and dropped a book today, I wisely dropped it on the other foot. Smart of me. :-)

it's Peyton Manning

Be sure to mock him for me on behalf of all of Patriots nation. Uh, what's left of it, that is.

Troy Brown!! Troy Brown!!!! *whimper*

Heh. I want to ask him about all those quotes by James about how dysfunctional they are.

Its a good thing that it doesn't dice. With such a fancy machine it probably would have rolled a 20 each time.
