    Share on:

    Yesterday, while eating and drinking in North Beach SF, I stumbled upon an event put on byJon Brumit called "Bring Your Own Big Wheel." What a trip :-D Imagine adults, dressed up as super heros and other oddities, racing big wheels down a very steep, very windey road. There were a ton of wipe-outs and scrapes …

    Back on April 1st, 2004, I was dating a woman who was a fan of Showtime's new lesbo show, The L-Word. She subscribed to Showtime specifically for the show but missed it one night. Not having experienced the pleasures of TiVO, she asked me to download a copy from the Internet. She was usually a little too paranoid to …

    Tomorrow, the University I attend will be getting "The Internets." They'll have not just one Internet installed, but two!

    Mar 23, 2007 · 2 min read  ·
    Share on:

    I've got another final due tomorrow, is it obvious I'm procrastinating? But seriously, if your city has Zipcar and you don't have wheels, I highly recommend using their service. I chose them over CityCarShare and FlexCar and I've been really satisfied. Just last weekend, I rented a Volvo for 2 days and safely headed up …

  • Java: Is x a Power of 10?

    Mar 10, 2007 · 2 min read  ·
    Share on:

    Well, this took awhile to figure out. I wrote a Roman Numeral converter for my Java final and one of the requirements states: Subtract only powers of ten, such as I, X, or C. Writing VL for 45 is not allowed: write XLV instead. This means I had to see if the number I'm working with was a power of 10. Initially, I did …

    Share on:

    I've got two 10 page papers to write by Wednesday so I figure there's no better time to write a post about the things you can find in my Swiss Synergy backpack. This backpack is rather large but its size often comes in handy (grocery store trips and school finals come to mind). I used to value micro sized bags but …
