There aren’t many things that get me more excited and more motivated more quickly than a well-written book.

“Anything you want” by Derek Sivers is the latest such book, my brain is overflowing with ideas and energy right now.

I own Jaws at least 5 times on 4 different formats, but as soon as I see that it's streaming again I can't help but think "shit, I gotta watch that again!" as if it was my last chance.

I 100% did a double take on this drink name. Font choice is important, esp on a kids menu :/

More stores need to sell regular rhubarb pie and stop ruining it with strawberries.

Thankfully my wonderful wife knows what’s up and can bake like no one’s business.

Favorite multiplayer map? Top 3, at least.

So many sniper battles in UT99.

I think we took similar approaches then, except I used index math instead of recursion and a let var for counting matches instead of map-reduce.
