Difficult Listening Hour 2020.08.01

by

Week twenty-three of my unplanned, unrehearsed, seat-of-the-pants goofing around. As a way of getting back into practice and doing something regularly, I’ve started doing regular Twitch broadcasts, now on Saturday mid-mornings. These are the results. Anything goes.

My nieces’ grandparents (on their dad’s side) found an old park bench for their family, and my nieces decorated it. I think this is wonderful, and am sharing with permission from their mom.

    • On This Day: Aug 2 Recognizing 20 years of blogging, here are my past posts from August 2 ➡
  • 2018
    • Do you like the color purple? Turns out you can thank rancid mollusc butt mucus! “This is a colour that pretends to transcend the vulgar vagaries of this world, all the while remaining mired in its muck.” ➡
  • 2016
    • Used #Pixelmator to combine two #Prisma effects (Heisenberg and Mosaic). On a miniature computer I carry in my pocket and only semi-accurately call a “phone” (as that’s one of its least used functions). Even with all the crap in the world today, living in the future is cool. (215/366) ➡
    • We voted! ➡
    • For one brief, odd moment, I was sure there was some sort of robotic snake on the road outside our house. ➡
  • 2014
    • An afternoon visiting The circus planet. #RollWorld Image @RollWorldApp, #TinyPlanet #PhotoSphere #StereoGraphic ➡
    • At the circus! Yesterday we noticed that the Wenatchee Youth Circus was in town for the weekend, so here we are, watching them prep for the show! ➡
  • 2006
    • Vegas Vacation It's vacation time -- a full five days off from work. Tomorrow morning, at some horrendous hour, Prairie's sister is driving us to the airport where we'll board a plane to fly down to Las Vegas for three days with Xebeth! ➡
  • 2004
    • Meme Propagation Test This posting is a community experiment started by Minding the Planet to see how a meme represented by a blog posting spreads across blogspace, physical space and time. It will help to show how ideas travel across blogs in space and time and how blogs are connected. ➡
    • Seeing Cheney requires signing ‘loyalty oath’ Kirsten sent this my way earlier today, and then I ran across it again on Len's site, and both times it just made my skin crawl: Obtaining Cheney Rally Ticket Requires Signing Bush Endorsement. ➡
    • iTunes and Jazz: More about Metadata Regular readers of this mess I call a website will occasionally have seen me rant about metadata, especially where the iTunes Music Store is concerned. In short, it's woefully incomplete, and at times, flat-out inaccurate. It was quite heartening for me to run across Jazz in 2500?, a jazz-lovers look at the disservice done to music when only the least possible information is preserved when purchasing music online. ➡
    • Ballard Locks Photo Workshop So yesterday was the big photo gathering at the Locks. Prairie and I picked up her sister Hope and then headed out, eventually getting there about an hour into the event. As I'd never been to the Locks before, I wasn't entirely sure where to go at first, so we just started following the paths and wandering around. It wasn't long before we stumbled across a fairly large group with a higher-than-average ratio of cameras… ➡
  • 2003
    • Overpriced? Oh, come on. Why in the world, then, would I want to pay $15/month (not counting any discounts I get for being a TypePad beta tester) to sign up with TypePad? Quite a few reasons, actually. ➡

  • 2019
    • Book forty-three of 2019: Maus, Vol. II, by Art Spiegelman. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The second half of the story, from Auschwitz to America. This really is a powerful piece of work. I really don’t understand how we as a nation are coming so close to letting this happen again. ➡
  • 2018
    • Things that amuse me: sitting at an outdoor concert, wearing a My Life With the Thrill Kill Kult t-shirt and my Mercury hoodie…singing along to all the songs the Abba cover band is playing. 🎶🎵😆 ➡
  • 2016
    • All in all, I’m just another brick in the wall. (214/366) ➡
  • 2014
    • Just a quiet Friday evening at home. ➡
    • Giant bugs! Spotted this moth and beetle on our front porch tonight. More creepy cool critters! Got some great macro shots with my “real” camera, too! ➡
    • I got Prairie an iPad Mini as a post-anniversary, pre-birthday present. She’s quite happy with her new toy! ➡
  • 2007
    • Seattle Outtakes Pipe In theory, if I've done this correctly, this pipe should be a Seattle Outtakes RSS feed. ➡
    • True Blood Anna Paquin, vampires, and Utilikilts in the same show? Sounds to me like it'll at least be worth checking out an episode or three. ➡
  • 2006
  • 2005
    • Quick Black and White viewing in OS X A quick Mac OS X tip for photographers that I've found to be really handy in instances where you'd like to get an idea of how those color shots from your digital camera would look like when converted to black and white. ➡
  • 2004
    • Ballard Locks photo workshop today Just a reminder — today is the day of the Ballard Locks Photo Workshop organized in response to Ian Spiers' experiences while photographing the Locks. ➡
  • 2003
    • Ten blocks downhill… Gunfire marked our first night in Seattle. Street warfare broke out when rival gangs spotted each other following an annual torchlight parade. Three teenagers were shot and a fourth was stabbed before police could penetrate the thick, panicky crowds to prevent further mayhem. ➡
    • Open for business! It's official, folks -- TypePad is open for business! ➡
    • But weren't you the drummer? And then we had the drumbeat to war. Remember on our TV screens -- I'm not suggesting which network did this -- but it said, 'March to War,' every day from last summer until the spring -- 'March to War, March to War.' That's not a very conducive environment for people to take risk, when they hear, "March to War" all the time ➡
    • Blood on his hands Have you got blood on your hands, Prime Minister? Are you going to resign over this? ➡
    • Communion on the moon? It was the first time liquid -- wine, representing Christ's blood -- was ever poured on the moon. The specially blessed bread Aldrin consumed -- representing Christ's body -- was the first meal eaten by humans on another celestial body. ➡
    • Too Americanized? Pentagon officials says Americanizing Iraq is difficult because Iraqi%u2019s have had little to no reliable information for the past 35 years, and have lived on a diet of innuendo, rumor, conspiracy theories, fear, and propaganda. Sounds like the problem is they%u2019re too Americanized. ➡
  • 2002
    • Geek mode on! Since this last Monday, I've been neck-deep in HTML, CSS, and XML, working on helping to code the pages for a web-based job submission tool being built by Xerox for use within Microsoft for sending jobs to the Xerox print shops. ➡

  • 2019
    • Book forty-two of 2019: Maus, Vol. I, by Art Spiegelman. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The first part of a graphic novel memoir of one man’s relationship with his father, and his father’s experiences as a Polish Jew during WWII. So many of the early events are sadly topical right now. ➡
  • 2018
    • Seattle judge blocks release of blueprints for ‘computer generated’ 3D printed guns: Good. Hopefully this temporary block becomes permanent. ➡
  • 2016
    • Apparently I needed a nap this afternoon. There are definitely worse places to snooze than on a comfy couch surrounded by books. (213/366) ➡
    • Chucks of the day (48/48): grey low tops with matching laces and red and black trim around the ankle. #chucks #converse ➡
  • 2015
    • Paid to use the closer lot this morning. This is what happens to thermal paper in a car on a day that’s 106° outside. ➡
  • 2014
    • For #throwbackthursday: Out for a bike ride with mom, probably around 1974 or 75. ➡
  • 2010
  • 2008
    • The New Apartment In happier news: first photos of the new apartment! ➡
    • We’re Back! _Finally_ -- after far too much sturm und drang -- we're back up and running! Well, mostly. The most important parts, at least. ➡
  • 2007
  • 2004
    • What’s the profit margin on this troll hunt? Okay, yes, diff'rent streaks for diff'rent freaks and all that, but -- without meaning any offense -- I've got to admit that an all-economists Dungeons and Dragons game just might rank fairly high in my personal descriptions of hell. ;) ➡
  • 2003
    • Flyers from Gig's Music Theatre, 1997-1998 I've just uploaded a new gallery here — a collection of old flyers from when I was DJ'ing at Gig's Music Theatre in Anchorage, Alaska. I'm no graphic designer, as will be made painfully obvious if you go through them, but some are decent. Besides, it's a fun little bit of nostalgia for me. :) ➡
    • Beautiful design I really, really like the design of sunset dawning. Minimalist and gorgeous. ➡
    • Help wanted: Apache/PHP I'm planning on sticking with TypePad as my weblog host, however, this poses a bit of a problem with broken links. Can any Apache/PHP gurus help me? ➡
    • Revisionist Historians I just noticed that Lane has titled his political blogroll 'Revisionist Historians.' That's wonderful! ➡
    • BlogStop It's really simple — each new comment must form an acronym of the last word of the previous comment. Care to see what we can come up with? Anyone? ➡
  • 2002
    • Strait or Gay? This is an e-mail that Karl just sent me...for me, voting in the Republican primary election for my district (Turnagin District 26 in Anchorage), l have to choose between Strait and Gay. This is ABSOLUTELY TRUE...no kidding! ➡

  • 2024
    • Lost to Eternity by Greg Cox 📚: ⭐️⭐️⭐️: Almost four stars…but not quite. There are three connected storylines, only one of which really worked for me, but it worked really well. Also, this reaches my goal of 52 books read this year, nice and early! ➡
  • 2023
  • 2022
  • 2020
  • 2019
    • Book forty-one of 2019: White Trash Zombie Unchained, by Diana Rowland. ⭐️⭐️⭐️ Finished off the WTZ series in fine form, wrapping up various plot threads, dealing with villains, and even introducing psychic zombie alligators into the mix. All in all, a very fun series. ➡
  • 2018
    • The Maps That Show That City vs. Country Is Not Our Political Fault Line: “The key difference is among regional cultures tracing back to the nation’s colonization.” Interesting look at how historical regions may have affected recent (and, potentially, upcoming) elections. ➡
    • Linkdump for July 16th through July 30th An automatically generated list of links that caught my eye between July 16th and July 30th. ➡
    • Another move away from Facebook Rethinking my posting strategies in the wake of Facebook cutting off API access to post to personal profits. ➡
  • 2016
    • Had a very pleasant summer dinner out on the back patio this evening. ➡
    • More proof that I am actually somewhere around 12, rather than 43. After gathering up all the loose change from around the house, we decided that I could use whatever it added up to for #Lego sets. The result? Almost $163, and that’s after Coinstar’s 10% fee. Not bad! So, yeah, more #Legos to build ... Read more ➡
    • Fresh picked goodies from our garden! Cucumbers, apricots, tomatoes, Italian prunes, and a green pepper – rosemary and dill also came from the garden, but aren’t pictured. ➡
    • Chucks of the day (47/48): green camouflage low tops. My feet are invisible! ;) #chucks #converse ➡
  • 2014
    • Saw the @trekmovie #trekselfie tag today. Here’s a gem I found this weekend at an antique store! ➡
    • Continuing to get scruffier after going clean shaven last week. Almost at the point where I’ll need to start shaping the beard. Considering trying an actual beard (kept short and trimmed, though, not hipster mountain man bushy) rather than the goatee. Amused by the amount of grey coming in, though! ➡

    • Dance Off Photoshoot I'm in the rather interesting position of being the _only_ person in Seattle who's gotten at least a hint as to what each of the different teams are doing, and let me tell you...this year's Dance Off is going to be _awesome_. ➡
  • 2006
    • Visitor at Work We noticed this (not so) lil' guy crawling along the counter at work today. Having a mild case of arachnophobia and being a camera buff, my reaction was pretty predictable: 'Ugh! Eww! (cringe) ... Where's the macro lens?' ➡
  • 2004
    • Batman Begins While I knew that Waner Brothers was working on bringing the Batman franchise back from the neon grave that Joel Schumacher buried it in, I had no idea that the project was this far along: the teaser trailer has just been posted. ➡
  • 2003
    • 50 ways to leave your lover… Newt Gingrich, former speaker of US House of Representatives, big on family values, who visited his wife in hospital the day after she underwent surgery for cancer, to discuss the terms of their divorce. ➡
    • Help search engines index your site Tips and tricks to help search engines index your site more intelligently. Written for, but not specific to, TypePad Advanced accounts. ➡
    • Our friend, the humble 'title' attribute Earlier this evening, I got an e-mail from Pops asking me how I created the little tooltip-style comment text that appears when you hover over links in my posts. I figured that it was information worth posting here, on the off chance it might help someone else out. ➡
    • BuyMusic ripping off artists BuyMusic.com (which I will refer to as BM) got their "vast" music library of 300,000 plus songs from a company called the Orchard. So, without the express consent of what is likely lots of the Orchards catalog, BM has put it up for sale at the bargain price of $.79 a song. ➡
    • Pet Peeves Can we please please please stop using the target='new' attribute in links? I don't want a new window. If I do want a new window, then I'll right-click and use the 'Open link in new window' command. But I don't want you deciding that I must want a new window, just because you don't want me taking the oh-so-horrid step of actually (gasp) leaving your site! ➡
  • 2001
    • I’m employed! Rock on -- when I started typing this update out, I was under the impression that I'd have another round of interviews to go through on the job I've been trying to get...but I just got a call, and I'm hired! ➡

    • “There is a phrase in vulcan for ‘the particular moment you understand what the word ‘fuck’ is for’.” This thread about the ridiculousness of humans in the Star Trek universe (“…to everyone else in the galaxy, all humans are basically Doc Brown.”) always makes me laugh. 🖖 ➡

    • July Seattle Flickrites Meetup Had a very pleasant time at the inaugural Seattle Flickr Meetup tonight. I showed up just a bit after 7pm and hung out until the last of us left just a bit before 10pm. Not a bad turnout for a first gig, either. ➡
  • 2004
    • Kerry’s DNC speech Thanks to C-Span's video archive, I just sat back and watched Kerry's speech to the 2004 Democratic National Convention. I must say, I'm more impressed than I thought I was going to be, not having been overly impressed by what little I've seen of Kerry in the past. A good, well-written speech, and he delivered it quite well. ➡
  • 2003
    • The constitutionality of fuck, 'fucker' and 'fucking fag' Faced with what he thought was a speech crime, Eric Vanatta, the teen's public defender, drafted the below motion to dismiss the misdemeanor charge. The District Court document is an amusing and profane look at the world's favorite four-letter word, from its origins in 1500 to today's frequent use of the term by Eminem, Chris Rock, and Lenny Kravitz. ➡
    • 911survivor: Game? Art? This morning, Kirsten left a comment letting me know that while at Siggraph, she had met one of the creators of the 911survivor mod. ➡
    • Snacktime Nothing like a little health food to get you through the day. ➡
    • Construction is fun! I just can't seem to escape construction these days. If it's not my apartment building, it's my job. What fun! ➡
    • Lazy I don't wanna go to work today. Just whining a little bit. ;) ➡
  • 2001
    • Books and movies I did hit Blockbuster video and picked up three movies I hadn't seen before. I went with Scary Movie , Cherry Falls, and The Contender. Of the three, the only one really worth watching was The Contender. ➡

    • Newest Recruit I guess I'll need to expand my wardrobe a bit now...supplement my primarily black color scheme with a browncoat... ➡
  • 2004
    • Tattoo number two: Ouroboros For some time now, I've been pondering what to get as a second tattoo. I didn't want to get something merely because it 'looked cool' or struck my fancy for a passing moment. Rather, I wanted to get something to both complement and balance the tattoo I already had. ➡
    • Ash to Ash, Dust to Dust August 18, 1992. I was living in Anchorage in an apartment off of Muldoon Road, and working slinging popcorn at the Fireweed Theaters. It was a rather muggy, hot day, and I was quite happy to be getting off of work at 6pm that evening. One of the girls I worked with offered me a ride home, and on our way across town, we turned on the radio, anxious to hear about the day's news — the sudden eruption of Mt. Spurr, a volcano just across Cook Inlet from Anchorage. ➡
    • Pay attention to the road, you idiots Years ago, while driving around Anchorage, I glanced to my right and saw a couple guys driving around with a portable DVD player sitting on the dashboard of their car, quite happily watching a movie as they motored around town. Well, the inevitable has finally happened: two people in Alaska were killed by a driver watching a movie on a dash-mounted DVD player. ➡

  • 2002
    • Parable of the Talents The story of Lauren Olamina, a woman with a mission to spread the word of Earthseed, a religion with the destiny of bringing mankind to the stars in a post-apocalyptic (though not nuclear) near-future America. ➡
    • Tongue tied Grrrrr...at 29 years of age, I really should be able to deal with talking to someone of the opposite sex without getting entirely tongue tied, shouldn't I? ➡

    • My niece, after seeing my new tattoo on my calf: “People with arm tattoos are bad!” Me: “You mean, like this?” As I pull up my sleeve to show her my first tattoo. Niece, eyes wide: “…unless they’re family. Then they’re okay.” ➡
    • YATP (Yet Another Test Post): Facebook has apparently changed their API, so direct micro.blog > Facebook cross-posting isn’t working. This is to see if an IFTTT > Facebook applet still works (after the micro.blog > WordPress step). ➡

    • Deacon John Hanscom Many congratulations to my dad, who was ordained to the Sacred Order of Deacons at Holy Spirit Episcopal Church this last Wednesday evening! ➡
  • 2006
    • One man’s porn… 'Are these _real_?' I asked myself as I scrolled down the row of pictures on the webpage. Prairie started giggling. 'That's the kind of thing most guys would say while they're looking at porn.' I laughed. 'I _am_!' ➡
  • 2005
    • LiveJournal Syndication Update Allrighty then...it wasn't the solution that I was hoping for, but I think I've managed to fumble my way through _a_ solution for my issues with the woody_eclectic LiveJournal feed. ➡
    • We Are the Web There is only one time in the history of each planet when its inhabitants first wire up its innumerable parts to make one large Machine. Later that Machine may run faster, but there is only one time when it is born. You and I are alive at this moment. ➡
    • Phobic I've mentioned my fear of flying in the past. Earlier today, Steven Frank wrote about his battle with the same phobia -- and from the sound of it, he was hit by it far harder than I was. If you're phobic or know someone who is, this is well worth reading. ➡
    • LiveJournal readers: help! Okay, here's the situation. Right now, there's 29 of you reading my stuff (or at least skimming it occasionally) through the LJ syndication account woody_eclectic, which I think is great. There's just one little issue, though...and it's one that I can't (easily) fix on my own. ➡
    • A long, long time ago… ...no far away galaxy, though. Last night I got an e-mail from Kathleen, who'd stumbled across my Gigs photoset while looking for an old friend of hers. She was kind enough to send me an old photo from Gigs and said I could go ahead and post it along with the rest of my pictures from the club. ➡
  • 2003
    • Bush/Cheney vs. Dean This is what it's all about. Not $2000 a head dinners so the fat cats can buy their "special interests" by keeping the status quo, but by people all across the country giving what they can, because they believe in a candidate, and because they want to make a change for the better. ➡
    • Siggraph fun Did I mention that I'm jealous? What fun shiny toys they must have there! ➡
    • Koosay, Eebay, and Ooday You’ve probably noticed that there are many different spellings of Arabic names depending on which news source you are reading. The truth is that there is no consensus how to write Arabic words in English. If we are going to investigate Arabic names we must therefore use phonetic spellings. ➡
    • Metabetablog I mention this because my last post got incorporated into the latest creation. Made me laugh. ➡
    • I'm such a music whore Newest additions to the ever-growing collection, thanks to The Vogue, Jonas, John, and the fine folks at musicwerks: ➡
    • Importing MT archives: month by month I'm starting work on importing my archives from The Long Letter into Eclecticism. I wanted to see if I could figure out how to import one month's worth of posts at a time, instead of the whole kit and kaboodle. Here's what I ended up with. ➡
  • 2002
    • Eight Legged Freaks A silly premise, scientific accuracy thrown out the window, sterotypical characters, and cheezy lines, all add up (in my world, at least) to a very enjoyable couple hours at the movies. ➡
  • 2001
    • Job details, more books, and monkeys Anyway...went out to see Tim Burton's Planet of the Apes, one of the big films I'd been waiting to see this summer. So how was it? Horrid -- the end result was it's a matinee at best...quite possibly only a rental. ➡

📚 thirty of 2020: Die Standing by John Jackson Miller ⭐️⭐️⭐️ #startrek #dis

A thoroughly entertaining romp with Emperor Georgiou between seasons one and two of DIS, as she adjusts to her new universe and gets recruited by Section 31. Plus ties to TOS and DS9. Fun! 🖖
