UBC's Radio station CITR is having a DJ Competition (called That DJ Competition) on Tuesday October 2. I've been sick and I'm really behind on some work and I really don't have time for this, but it just looks like so much fun I couldn't help myself. You have to submit a demo and you can find mine here. I was talked into doing a disco mix, but if I do qualify I think I'll do a half cheezy 90's mix and half current club dance mix. I have no aspirations to win -- I'm not that kind of DJ: some crazy hip hop scratching kid will probably deserve it more, but it would be fun to qualify and perform.

OhMyGod, OhMyGod, OhMyGod, OhMyGod... just 10 days away:



If you don't know why it's called Blue Harvest, read up on it.

Zen Habits: 72 Ideas to Simplify Your Life. Sure, there's a lot of fluff, but with 72 of them, I'm sure you can use at least one of them.

I found today's xkcd surprisingly topical and will timed for me.



I'm fairly sure that most of my supergeek friends read www.xkcd.com regularly, because it is the geek comic on the internet, but just in case you don't I'm posting the link for ya. For those of you non-geeks or medium-geeks or geek-lites I highly suggest visiting, clicking on the RANDOM link and give it about 10 comics. If none of them make you burst out laughing then just count your blessings and move on.

P.S. Happy birthday Mommy (from your oldest geek)
