Somebody Set Us Up the Bomb
In case you're wondering where I've been for the past week, there was a problem with my Movable Type installation last month and it finally hit a climax last weekend... and it set up a huge fork and nearly took down the freeshell server I'm hosted on. ^_^'' Woops...
It seems to be fixed now, but I haven't been using my blog very much in the meantime. Besides the fork bomb, the reason for that is that I am moving to a different server and switching from Movable Type to Wordpress. The site will be up and running very soon, but the transfer of matthewmeyer.net to the new server is taking a lot longer than I had expected (grr) and so I can't finish setting up the new website.
But anyway, since it looks like MT is working again maybe I can post a few more updates before the whole site moves over.

Tootsie Roll Pops
I hate Tootsie Roll Pops. I've never liked them. Even in elementary school when we'd get them as rewards, I'd never eat them... I'd just save them in my desk and either someone would steal it or it would melt.
So here I am, today, in the ARC... nothing to do, and there's a bowl of Tootsie Roll Pops on the table. "What's the heck," I thought to myself. "It's been years. Go ahead, have one. Maybe you'll like it by now."
Boy was I wrong. It wasn't all that bad when I was just sucking on the candy part... but now I'm at the chocolate. Gross... Artificial cherry and Tootsie Roll chocolate do not mix. This is really nasty! OK I'm taking it out of my mouth right now.
The aftertaste is so bad that I'm washing my mouth out with Baked Lays and Florida water... two of the most disgusting foods on the planet. Florida water, as you may know from drinking it, is distilled from the farts of the Cuban immigrants forced to work in the Everglades capturing alligators by hand for use in the mini-golf parks that litter this state's roads. Baked Lays, on the other hand, are the only potato chip that tastes distinctly like sushi.
