My Thoughts…
Are more important than I think so I need to post more on this thing!
Also, I added the “ask me anything” feature, so ask away?

So this is a picture of the Google Map of where the 3rd Street spaghetti place is, but it reminded me of how one time at Pan Pacific park when I was like 9 someone accidentally hit my forehead with a baseball bat (really hard might I add) while we were playing baseball and I was the catcher. STORY OF MY LIFE. I’m fine now.
This story explains so much.

Google is rolling out 1 Gigabit fiber networks across the US (100 times faster than the national average). This is very good news. Nominate your community to be a part of the experiment!

Imagine a world powered by vegetable oil! Badass
Considering vegetable oils (corn oil, soybean oil, etc.) are predominantly extracted using hexane, a petroleum solvent, the world would be much better if vegetable oils were used for fuel and not for food. Sadly, most people think vegetable oil is “healthy,” the opposite couldn’t be more true. So sad.
Edit: Stick to cold pressed olive oil or sesame oil, which are simply pressed to extract the oil. Chances are, if you need a petroleum solvent to extract the oil from something, it wasn’t put on this earth for our consumption.

Introvert
Today as I was leaving the house to get groceries for dinner, I realized that I hadn’t left the house since Saturday. That’s FIVE days in a row. Can’t say anything to make that right. Life, I’m sorry I’ve neglected you.

Geocities' Time Has Expired :(
This is truly a sad day for me. I don’t remember the exact cities I belonged to, but I’m pretty sure one of my sites was in ‘Silicon Valley’. I vividly remember a conversation I had with a friend in 6th or 7th grade in the library where we discussed our geocities communities and why we chose them (I’m pretty sure we were aiming for succinctness).
I still have the fat HTML books my dad bought me in 6th grade at my request, I used the knowledge to build The Legend of Zelda fan sites, complete with my own custom “banners” (created in PrintShop, of course), frames, metatags to help myself get indexed, cheesy gifs, guestbook, visitor counters, and overall bad ass design. Kids nowadays have it so easy with Tumblr, Wordpress, Blogger, Facebook, etc… it’s just too easy to put yourself on the internet.
So, from the bottom of my heart, RIP Geocities. The late nineties were a happier time. It is now my mission to find the floppy disks containing the aforementioned HTML goodness and publish them for memory’s sake.
