Great Wii Game

I’m absolutely serious about what I say here. If you have a Wii, you have to get Rapala Tournament Fishing. I know what you’re saying. That sounds stupid. And if you read reviews online, you might not think it is great. But you’d be wrong. It is amazing, and it is seriously the most involved [...]

Youtube is Amazing

Way back in 1998-2002 or so, I watched this show called “The Screen Savers” all the time. It was an hour long show about computers and tech and all things geeky. The best part was that it wasn’t watered down at all. It was the place to go to keep up on current tech news. [...]

I Still Have Diabetes

I haven’t really talked about it in a while. So some of you might have been under the impression that it had gone away. “Oh, he was miragically cured.” But nope, I just haven’t been talking about it, but there is one aspect that I felt like writing about. Most of the time I don’t [...]

Merry Christmas

Well it’s that time of year again. The annual Halley Christmas letter. I know that it is late coming out this year, but I’ve had a horrible skin disease that has made it so my fingers burned every time I would type and little bits of skin would get stuck to the keyboard, and I [...]

Happy Birthday

Today is my mom’s birthday. And she’s old. So happy birthday! It is probably downhill from here!

Boys Can Be Stupid

I don’t really want to go into it, but boys can be very stupid sometimes. Especially when kickboxing is involved.

Holiday Party

We’re having a holiday party at work on Thursday, and I am unreasonably stressed out about it. It is just a stupid party, but they really expect a lot out of us for this damn thing. For example: – Each group (I’m in programming) has to create a “centerpiece” that incorporates elements of our group [...]

Congratulations

So yesterday my sister got the letter. She got accepted into Wash U. Meaning that if she is able to graduate, all 5 members of my immediate family will be Wash U grads. I would heap more glowing praise on her for getting in, but hell, I got in, so it can’t be that damn [...]

Phone Insurance

I pay $5 a month for cell phone insurance. I’ve had my phone for 19 months. So I’ve spent $95 on phone insurance, that has so far gotten me nothing. Now, I realize that the point of insurance is just in case, and maybe next month I’ll drop my phone and need it. But the [...]

Cheap Chinese

My favorite Chinese place is “Chinese Express” by the Hi-Pointe. My family has been going there for at least 6 years. I think it is some of the best Chinese in St. Louis, and certainly the best anywhere near our house. But over a year ago it caught on fire and closed. I thought that [...]

Manhunt

I got to work this morning and their was an email that there was a manhunt going on on campus. Apparently someone had been mugged near campus and they were hunting down this person. Apparently there were helicopters flying around, but I didn’t notice them. This brings up two issues that I have. 1) Why [...]
