A quick clip from IRC:
[19:37] * jay dislikes ffmpeg installs
[19:37] |jay| silly youtube clones
[19:37] * Andrick is now known as ffmpeg
[19:37] |ffmpeg| I don’t like you either
[19:37] |Jay| lol
[19:37] * ffmpeg is now known as Andrick
Sometimes sarcasm is difficult to get across in text…
After a long second shift at work tonight, while Jen was getting down with some Final Fantasy XII, I decided to catch up on my RSS feed reading.
The Wharton Center announced their lineup for the next year, and it is shorter than normal because they want to leave room for tour acts that always come around mid-season.
That’s the good news.
To be honest, the only thing that really piqued my interest at all was Richard Dreyfuss on February 4th 2008.
That’s right, Richard Dreyfuss. About the only thing that can make this any better is if Treat Williams shows up and they sing a duet together.
UPDATE: 6/03/07 I saw a commercial tonight with more of the recently added performances and Monty Python’s Spamalot will be playing on December 4 - 9 2007. Definitely an improvement.
Update June 16 2008:
The developer of QuickProxy was nice enough to leave a comment on this post informing me that the firefox add-on is alive again! I just installed it in my copy of Firefox 3 RC 3 (Mac) and can’t wait to start using it, as it is definitely the best proxy switch add-on I’ve used.
Awesome!

Update April 13 2008:
I’ve been running the Firefox 3 beta for a while, and unfortunately it appears quickproxy is no longer being updated. Check out ProxySwitch, which does the same thing.

A couple months ago I posted about using a SOCKS proxy to secure your traffic when using an open wireless network (or any time you need to redirect traffic in a VPN-like fashion). Ever since then I’ve been using this tip a lot, but it has led to an annoying amount of opening and closing Firefox’s network preferences to check the proxy status.
QuickProxy to the rescue! I just found this today and it is perfect for what I need. It adds a simple icon to Firefox’s status bar which is green when the proxy is in use. Click on it and it turns gray, disabling the proxy.
Continuing the video sharing, this one’s for Whitney. Some unreal beats getting boxed. On the Metro. In Paris.

I was brought to the attention recently of what can only be described as one of the more original, and funny, alibis for a crime ever.
“I didnt bring in a two by four and try to rob that store! It was my [I'm not making this up] evil twin brother!”
Jebus riding a bicycle! If only I had thought of that before several of my numerous run ins with incarceration….

So I guess we’re using the site for glorified messaging now 
Which is actually pretty cool.
Anyway, Whitney brought this video to my attention. More specifically she brought it to my attention to bring to Tyler’s attention.

If George Lucas hasn’t already hired these guys he probably should before someone else does.
