Half Binary: Striking a busy balance
http://aarbit.blogspot.com/2009/08/striking-busy-balance.html
Tuesday, August 11, 2009. Striking a busy balance. For a long time, I've wanted to have a schedule that was filled with fun things to do. I always envied people who seemed to know all these exciting people, and had exciting events to go to. Until, like the mighty bamboo, things start overgrowing the boundaries of my calendar. Suddenly, I've got a friend's birthday, and a trip, and an event, and it's all at the same time. And being able to plan a weekend? I'm booked for months. I call upon the blagonet.

Half Binary: April 2009
http://aarbit.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Sunday, April 19, 2009. Food photography is hard, hand-held food photography is impossible. During a very delicious dinner recently, I decided to try my hand at food photography. I'd heard it is very difficult to do, especially as a professional with hot lights. It seems that once you get a pleasing looking composition, then your food is reflecting light in an unpleasing way. Despite this challenge, I decided to do it anyhow, because practice is always good, right? Saturday, April 11, 2009. It's almost e...

Half Binary: December 2008
http://aarbit.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
Thursday, December 11, 2008. A certain song ("Another Man's Rhubarb" -Pop Will Eat Itself) reminded me of the 1989 Batman movie. Having not seen it for about 8 years I decided to take a look at the IMDB quotes page. For the film. Many have compared and contrasted Joker from the 1989 film and the 2008 film, and the general consensus is that the 2008 Joker better captures the essence of the character.

Half Binary: "Oh that's what he meant! Stars above!"
http://aarbit.blogspot.com/2009/08/oh-thats-what-he-meant-stars-above.html
Wednesday, August 12, 2009. Oh that's what he meant! Last night Debra and I took a rambling road trip up north to try to see The Perseids. After about 45 minutes of trying to find nowhere, I finally pulled off onto the side roads and found a nice dirt driveway to park in. We only spotted two meteors, but there was just so much more to the evening than flaming bits of rock. And what seeing we did. Even knowing that there was so much to the sky that we were missing, there's something really magical abo...

Half Binary: It's inadequate, and I like it!
http://aarbit.blogspot.com/2010/05/its-inadequate-and-i-like-it.html
Wednesday, May 19, 2010. It's inadequate, and I like it! If you've hung around me any significant length of time, I've probably either corrected you on an incorrect use of words, or I've asked you to clarify an ambiguous statement. For instance, the statement, "That was a cheap shirt! Can mean A) the shirt was inexpensive, B) the shirt was poorly made, or C) both. If I'm thinking about buying the shirt, I want to know if it's A, B, or C. And the string says, "No, I'm a frayed knot.". Our world would be a...

Half Binary: July 2009
http://aarbit.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
Tuesday, July 14, 2009. I keep forgetting I'm living in the future. I love to keep up with tech news, and one of the most exciting things about it is reading all of the up-coming release dates for fun, new products. However, recently I've been finding that the release dates seem very far off in the future. Years off. And then I realize that the year 2010 is next year. Heck, it's only a few months away.

Half Binary: March 2010
http://aarbit.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Friday, March 26, 2010. I have a pet peeve. There's little to nothing I can do about it, but it's there. I hate when an artist has multiple "Greatest Hits" albums, but none of them have all. Of the hits I. Want The latest culprit: Alice Cooper. The three songs I want together are: "School's Out", "Love's A Loaded Gun", and "Poison." After a long time searching, I found 1 double-disc set that had studio versions of all 3 songs. But guess what? It's from an bootleg Russian label. To note: For the record, I...
