I really don’t care to spend the next few weeks arguing whether or not McCain is lying about his Christ/Cross/guard moment
- The Genius John Cole
Within one post, and it’s an open thread post (open threads are for your clamorous morons who have very little else to do but post comments), there’s this by a (the?) co-blogger
The other possibility is that McCain really thinks this happened to him, and can’t differentiate between something he read and something he actually experienced. I’m pretty convinced that he experienced no such thing.
- The other Genius Michael D.
Two posts away from that, Acclaimed Scholar Cole proclaims: Known Fact: Ouzo makes your head hurt.
As a fellow drunkard, I can appreciate the confusion. Thank God I don’t have a co-blogger to muck things up even further. One thing you can count on from Cole is a seemingly-endless series of posts about the cross in the sand clambake. The religious component never fails to set him off. But maybe he’s tidied up his psyche some…or his readership.
Thanks, Memeorandum!

I just burned up not one, but two, single-board computers by plugging them into the 48v power supply instead of the 12v power supply. The wisp of smoke and smell of burning plastic wasn’t a big enough clue from the first one that I’d effed up, so I did it to the second one, too. Those were my last two, and we’re officially “4-6 weeks” from delivery of new ones. The GBP thinks he can probably save them by replacing a resistor or a capacitor or some other funky little squiggly-looking thingy. Christ, I hope so…I’ve got not just alpha testing to finish, not just other producty stuff on the drawing board, not just super-interested beta testers, but real live cash-in-hand customers I’m going to have to placate somehow. I hate electricity.
I’m now going to get drunk, and then shoot somebody/something/myself. Maybe I’ll just go eat a chicken fried steak or something equally heinous, but then I’d have to shower since it’s about 100% humidity today, and I’ve been working in the garage lab. Crap. Now I’ll have to work on the dumb websites and make brochures and other marketing stuff that I’m completely horrible at. I don’t market, I sell. I wish I could market…those guys seem pretty cool.
