sad news

One of my favorite uncles passed away while I was on vacation. He’ll be missed. I have fond childhood memories of visiting their family when I was growing up. At Uncle Harry’s I had my first videogame experience with Pong. Their dog boots inspired me to get Chewy. He was always kind and in a […]

happy mardi gras

I’m sitting at the Riverwalk Internet Cafe in New Orleans, LA. There’s another internet place off Toulouse but they’re closed today. Mardi Gras is an official holiday here, so shops are either closed or will close at 6 P.M. Bizarro. I figured I’d catch you up on what the Super Genius has been up to […]

delay

I posted some photos I took in 2001 of Eastern State Penitentiary. I’m a little backed up as far as posting new content, you might say. Coming soon: My trip to Prague in the summer of 2003. —————————————————————– YOU HAVE BEEN OUTBID —————————————————————– Dear thesupergenius, You are no longer the high bidder on the following […]

rollback vs slidebed

I’m supposed to transport my DeLorean to Pigeon Forge, TN this June. I want to do it with a flatbed car carrier. In the UK these are known as slidebeds. In the states we call them rollbacks. I’d like to rent one but it’s impossible to find any decent information on the web. Tow truck […]

realize

Sitting in my Philly condo on Sunday. Sun is setting. Got a ton of goodies from Best Buy and Circuit City to install. Was in Talleyville, Delaware again. In previously blog entries I mistakenly said I was in Wilmington, Delaware. My bad. Circuit City let me down while I was there. Sorta. I was buying […]

sue, she is made of raw fish

Had a great weekend in Houston. Went to Texas Cattle Company with the roommate. Forgot the name last time I mentioned it. May I recommend the jalapeno pork chops. Went to Number’s with The Bease-Off™ and roommate. Saw some old friends including Cool Gui, his wife Corrie, CECE™ and ROXIE™. I hadn’t seen CECE and […]

pins

Miss my pinball machines. Had three of them: Gottlieb’s Charlie’s Angels, Sinbad, and Cleopatra. Two I sold back to the guy I bought them from. Another I sold to a coworker’s neighbor. This was back last year when I thought I was rolling off the project. The Charlie’s Angels machine I got for a shweet […]

greeting

Bedside alarm goes off. It’s 6 in the morning. Hit snooze. Cell phone alarm goes off. It’s 6:05 AM. Opening and closing silences it. Bedside alarm goes off again. It’s 6:09 A.M. Process repeats until I can’t stand it anymore. I get up. I greet my dog. I hop in the shower. I hop out […]

temporal displacement

I saw ”The Butterfly Effect” on Satuday while Chew had his monthly Top Dog stink cleansing at Petsmart. I loved it! The movie — not the stink cleansing. The reviews for ”Butterfly” have been mixed at best but I blame The Ashton Kutcher Factor given that he’s so well known for playing a doofus. Any […]
