“To exist in this vast universe for a speck of time is the great gift of life. Our tiny sliver of time is our gift of life. It is our only life. The universe will go on, indifferent to our brief existence, but while we are here we touch not just part of that vastness, but also the lives around us. Life is the gift each of us has been given. Each life is our own and no one else’s. It is precious beyond all counting. It is the greatest value we can have. Cherish it for what it truly is… Your life is yours alone. Rise up and live it.”

That’s right folks. I grabbed my first parcel of internet turf back in 1998. For years I was tempted to snag more domains. There was a time when registrars were killing each other offering dirt cheap domain registration. For a time you could get 1 year of .com hosting for $5/domain. I think the going rate now is about $10/year.

I’ve got 20 domains listed for sale on eBay and here’s the list:

Browse My Current Offering

www.bankheists.com — I’m imagine this site full of stories about bank robberies, reviews of popular bank heist books and movies and lots of advertising.
www.cssfu.com — your custom style sheets are no match for my hidden dragon technique!
www.edcoo.com
www.fixedcostads.com — awesome name for flat fees on advertising. Who wants to bid?
www.noocu.com
www.nookza.com — this one just sounds fun.
www.oorge.com — Great name for an energy drink.
www.qwiva.com — this one gives me goosebumps. I might actually keep this one

www.sufsu.com
www.sypee.com
www.zwazu.com — Someone tell me why I’m envisioning a toucan as the mascot for Zwazu?

Hey there,

As some of you may know, I have a lot of hobbies. One of those hobbies is understanding the universe. What better way to do that then by dabbling in theoretical physics? With my computer science background though, I take a different approach than other scientists in the field.

What I am currently working on is using grid computing to calculate how much wood a woodchuck could chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood. Since woodchucks have not evolved to the point where they are able to chuck wood themselves, this is all theoretical of course. This means there’s lots of math and simulations needing to be performed in order to find that answer.

If you’re not already familiar with grid computing, you could google it or check wikipedia for a long-winded definition. The short version is basically you have a group of users who are willing to share their computers in order to help solve whatever problem the grid is working on. Most grids with volunteer members give up only a small portion of their computer’s unused CPU speeds so that they are able to use their PCs without feeling hampered by helping. A few years ago I did protein folding calculations for the Human Genome Project and it was really cool. SETI uses a grid to help sort through it’s collected data.

If you’re interested in helping me with “Project Woodchuck.” That’s great! No need to fill out a form or e-mail me. I’ll contact you! Together we’ll find out the answer. I am also in contact with various departments in the government to set up a grid for two operations in the future: The IRS is curious just how many seashells “she” sells by the seashore and I’m pretty sure we’ll all curious to know how many pickled peppers Peter Piper picks on a yearly basis.

Stay tuned for more details.

So I’m browsing eBay looking for some Farscape Toys and I notice that there’s a seller selling items from Gigi Edgley’s personal collection.  If you don’t know who that is, she played Chiana on the ubercool SciFi show Farscape.  You can see the current list of items for sale here: Gigi Edgley Collectibles and you can browse through the sold items here: Sold Gigi Edgley Collectibles.  There was a cool South Park Scorpius shirt that sold for $41.  I had no idea they were even made.

The seller seems legit as Gigi is pictured holding the items.  It should also be noted:

“BONUS #1-Gigi will personally sign it, anywhere with whatever the winning bidder wants (no signature, only signature, signature with a name or note, etc.). She’ll even take a photo with the signed item before shipping it out as proof that it is her signature!

BONUS #2-She’s also willing to write a small note (on the back of a Chiana fan card picture) describing the item, stating it was from her personal collection and any other details you’d like. She’ll take a photo with the note as well as the item, and you will receive the pictures via email while it’s being shipped!”

I thought that was pretty cool and worth checking out.  I’ll be watching again soon since they ship worldwide.

So I was watching season 3 of “The Guild,” a very enjoyable Youtube TV show about people from a MMORPG and their lives in and out of the game. It’s a really great show. In one of the episodes, they made a reference to www.finnsmulders.com and it turns out they have made the web page in real life as well. I love when TV shows and movies do that. Browsing the site I went ahead and peeked at the source code and found some cool messages as well as a link to Axis of Anarchy the fictional guild run by Wil Wheaton’s character. This is the second time I’ve seen him playing an antagonistic character and he’s done really well (the other show being Big Bang Theory). I look forward to seeing him in more things.

The other cool thing about finnsmulders.com was the music. I googled some of the lyrics but couldn’t find the song. I found some sites for The Guild with people inquiring about the name of the musician with no luck. Well I continued digging. The name of the song is H2CO3 and the singer is NRAN. You can checkout NRAN’s MySpace page and you’ll find H2CO3 as well as other songs available to download for free. I’m getting the rest of the album as I write this. If anyone was looking for the song from finnsmulders.com then check out that MySpace page and enjoy!

Starcraft II beta testing begins this month and although Blizzard hopes for a “mid 2010″ release, I am guessing it won’t be out before October. It wouldn’t be a Blizzard game if there were not multiple delays.

You can expect the value of the already scarce Starcraft collectibles to jump in value once the new game is released. Snag a few now before the prices rise:

I recently googled the word “pitspoes” hoping for some clarification of the word. Since I’m not a die hard racing fan, I would have no clue. A more informed friend says that pitspoes refers to the girls who go gaga over race car drivers when they win. Pitspoes a Dutch (or Flemmish) word.

Hope that helps anyone confused!

I have only seen about a dozen Korean movies. Until two days ago I was not impressed. I am not one to give up on a country though just because of a few bad movies. The U.S. has thousands of bad movies.

The Legend of the Shadowless Sword (2005) is the first of the two movies that I really enjoyed. The second movie was The Restless (2006). The Restless was my favorite of the two. The Netflix synopsis reads:

After his beloved fiancé is killed by demons, Yi Gwak (Woo-sung Jung) joins the royal demon-hunting squad and distinguishes himself as a great hero. And though Yi eventually falls in battle, his adventures are just beginning.

That’s really just the back story. Yi Gwak ends up in a place called Midheaven which is a realm between worlds where spirits go for 49 days before they are reincarnated. Yi Gwak, however, is not a spirit but a living human. An evil rebellion is afoot and Yi Gwak must stop it.

The special effects were special for sure. I watch a lot of foreign movies and good special effects are rare. I would not say the movie out did Zu Warriors, but it was a respectable challenger. If you are looking for a good sword fighting movie with an interesting story then I definitely recommend “The Restless.”

As of writing this post, I now have 324 wall scrolls listed on eBay. My most recent additions include:

Ikki Tousen aka Battle Vixens
Katekyo Hitman Reborn
Final Fantasy

I’ve been getting some really awesome wall scrolls. The bad thing for me is that I live in a small apartment and I want all of these hanging up but I don’t have the room. Someday I’ll have the wall space for a bunch of these though.

I was able to get the new Final Fantasy Necklaces listed as well.
