Umm Moana?
Dude, Moana should have definitely won. I mean, definitely should have.
Sara, or Sarah (the woman he picked) is head over heels for the Doctor from Nashville, in comparison to Moana having a true connection that goes much deeper than the “barbie & ken” experience.
It’s just bullcrap, because Travis wasn’t up to the challenge to [...]

Dancing with Drew
Eliza and I agreed, if Jerry Rice won “Dancing with the Stars” we would have freaked.
Not that I don’t give “mad props” to Jerry for improving as much as he did, but in the end the competition was not based purely on skill nor improvement, but the number of fans you were able to gathering [...]

Small things change the overall experience
I’m writing this post, while sitting at my dining room (I use this term loosely) table, using Flock. No, not the built in blogging capabilities (they suck), but still using Flock for the second full day in a row. I’m also using my new bluetooth mouse.
Though these two things do not change what I’m accomplishing, [...]

One thousand per week
The way I figure it, I’m deleting about 1,000 emails per week. This includes approved blog comments, forum notifications, spam, and other stuff I no longer need.
How many emails are you deleting per week?

Tic-Tac
Usually when people offer you a Tic-Tac, its because your breath needs some attention. Abizer, of Stompy.org, offered to send me a bluetooth Apple mouse – which I’ve named Tic-Tac – without ever smelling my breath.
Thanks Abizer, this baby is going to get put to some very good use.

Jealousy
A short rant about jealousy and how it usually doesn't affect me but this time it did, just a little.
Soy Gringo
I’m going to learn Spanish. I fully realize that I’m probably not worthy, yet, to start writing blog posts in Spanish (which I plan on doing in the future), since (spanish slang to follow:) soy gringo. Loosely translated, it means I’m a dirty American. I love this language already!
I can’t wait to [...]

I love Paul Scrivens
Not in that Brokeback Mountain kinda way (not that there’s anything wrong with that), but in the way that you would if someone was willing to stand behind those that’d be willing to stand behind him.
Today was a rough day. But, when the smoke clears, the only one that will be standing there with [...]

Moana will definitely win the Bachelor
I called it before, and having not been able to watch Monday’s episode till tonight, I wasn’t sure if my prediction would hold water. Yet, after watching the latest episode of The Bachelor, I can say with relative confidence that Moana will win the Bachelor.

I lost some Flickr views
I’ve had a ton of photos (and screenshots) on Flickr that have gone well over 1000 views. A few of my screenshots are in the 5,000 range.
Recently, however, I had a photo that almost surpassed 1000 views in record time, and I was going to mention that fact – except that I lost some [...]

Hobby projects
I always like to have at least one or two hobby projects going. All work and no play makes Colin a dull boy you know. Sometimes I’m ready to start up brand new projects, stuff I haven’t done before or whatever. This time, however, I’m thinking about redoing something I’ve already done.
I’m [...]

Things I’d love to do, but will never be good at
I’d love to play piano, but no matter how hard I try – I suck. I simply can’t get it. Perhaps its my inability to “hear†music the way musicians do, or whatever, but its something I desire to do and just can’t. I’m considering taking real lessons, and if I do [...]

The RSS Advisory Board
I wish I was on The RSS Advisory Board. I think I could contribute a great-deal to that effort.

My clothes and dishes are enchanted
I’ve never been one to buy designer clothing. To be honest, I’ve never been able to afford really nice clothing, just your average ‘run-of-the-mall’ type stuff. Though I would never complain about this fact, I never considered my clothing special.
Likewise for my dishes. Eliza and I really like our dishes, our silverware [...]

Grizzly Man
Grizzly Man has been talked about a lot on the Internets recently (partially due to the fact that it was on TV for all to watch).
My opinion, to be as straight-forward and honest as I know how, is that Timothy Treadwell did everything wrong. As altruistic as he was in the beginning, his time [...]

Time to see some talent
I was glad that last night’s American Idol was the last episode of the horrible funny contestants. I was getting sick of it.
Now I’m ready to see some fresh talent.
