Reports are just starting to come together on this story. I am hoping for a Marv Albert situation. That would make me laugh.

Tritium Batteries

July 24, 2006 · Filed Under Technology · 3 Comments 

Here is my geekiness coming out. . .

Tritium has a half-life of 12.3 years, so after 12.3 years, its output is half its original charge. At 40 years, it has one-tenth its original charge.

An iPod or cell phone that will never need to be charged before you get tired of it and replace it with something else. The notebook PC implications of a battery like this are intense.

NCAA Football 2007 Xbox 360

This game is awesome. Usually the NCAA games don’t look as good or play quite as well as the Madden games. If that is the case with this year’s games, then we are in for one hell of a ride with Madden 2007 on X-Box 360.

Hope Those Ratings Were Worth It

With under a month until the Browns first pre-season game against the Philadelphia Eagles, the Browns have ended their relationship with WOIO 19 TV in Cleveland. Maybe the timing of the end of the deal is just coincidence, but I kind of doubt it.
The Browns notified the station of their intention on Thursday, three days after Channel 19 aired the 911 tape of Nancy Fisher, sister of Browns owner Randy Lerner, finding her 6-year-old daughter drowned in a creek on family property in Mantua.

Channel 19 was the only station to air the gruesome portion of Fisher’s emergency call.

I don’t know what the cost/benefit relationship is for the TV channel, but I hope they made enough money from running this unnecessarily gruesome and sensationalistic call on their news show to justify losing their relationship with the Browns for pre-season games.

Road Rage Silently

If you are running a few minutes late for work, make sure you know who is around you in traffic. You just might be driving behind very important people who won’t appreciate you honking at them and might actually be going to the same place for work. Thankfully, I stayed under control.

I can only enjoy physical comedy some of the time. This is some funny physical comedy. I especially like the girls.

To Zidane - “Son of a Terrorist Whore”

July 11, 2006 · Filed Under Sports · Comment 

According to an expert lip reader, this is what was said to Zidane of France’s World Cup team that resulted in him head butting the player in the chest and getting Red Carded.

“After an exhaustive study of the match video, and with the help of an Italian translator, Rees claimed Materazzi called Zidane ‘the son of a terrorist whore’ before adding ’so just f*** off’ for good measure,”

Wow… I think I would head butt someone in the chest for saying that too.

TV Commentary on Battlestar Galactica

July 6, 2006 · Filed Under Television · 1 Comment 

That said, the shows most discussed out here as being likely beneficiaries of the change are “Gilmore Girls” and “Battlestar Galactica,” gawdhelpus. I mean, after all, “Gilmore Girls” just wrapped one of its dimmer seasons, and “Battlestar Galactica” is, well, “Battlestar Galactica.”

I don’t know what I find more repugnant. Is it the use of “gawdhelpus?” BLECH! Or is it the fact that someone is panning Battlestar Galactica in an unsubstantiated fashion when all this show seems to do is surprise people and get good reviews as it breaks the mold of Sci-Fi television.

I don’t mean to come off like a fanboy, but this high falutent critic with her superiority complex and her dismissiveness can go to hell. I just want to remind her and everyone else out there that “Everybody” DOES NOT “Love Raymond.”
