First and foremost, Fantasia Barrino is NOT the best Idol contestant ever. I had written out a long, drawn out argument as to why this is so, but I realized I was attacking someone’s character that I don’t even know, which isn’t really fair. Let me just say that the way she carries herself is [...]
Twas a close call with lunch today. A combination of ground beef that was on sale and perhaps eating a little too much led to some not-so-good feelings right after, but I think the tidal waves of regurgitation have subsided … for now. It wasn’t my intention to gross you out so let me get [...]
Work, Dustin, work! I know, I know but last night I had this weird dream where I went to watch a movie, saw a preview for a live action Transformers movie, went to see the Transformers movie right after the movie I originally saw and the Transformers movie turned out to be a live-action (with [...]
Travis is at home still licking his wounds from a few weeks ago and Eric doesn’t really live here anymore. This has left me practically roommateless for the last week or so. That is, until she came along. First of all, the cons: she doesn’t cook or clean (in fact, she makes quite a mess [...]

Donate now by [...]
Is it a good idea for people to “inspire” me to work on my numerous web projects when it is absolutely imperative that I work on my thesis this summer? Well it’s not their fault I’m such a slacker. In any case, here’s a new column from Thunder available over at TheDustin Daily.
It appears Yahoo! sees Google’s wager and raises them … -900 ??? Well, honestly, I applaud Yahoo! for at least stepping up to the plate and takin a swing. For the purposes of not turning my back on the grand ideal of American excess, I’ll keep my Yahoo! Mail account. But only because I like [...]
I have to admit the last couple of days haven’t gone originally as planned. After finishing up exams and final projects on Tuesday, I had planned to get right to work yesterday on finishing a side project that’s been nagging me since October/November.
