Wee, good times. Thanks for coming out, I'm glad we got the audio problem solved. That was fucking fun.

For more on that exact subject, read the post I linked to.

My first girlfriend was forumer Kyle's current girlfriend. (For those not in the know, Kyle is the only non-internet friend I have who's a big fan of DIF, I've known him since high school.) Prior to her introduction to my life, I had consigned myself to asexual existence and was content with it as such. I had a lot of girl friends, but to my knowledge, none were interested in me, and that was okay. Said girl and I dated when she asked me to date her, and it only lasted a few months.

My first heartbreak was not breaking up with her, but actually came before, when one of my cats ran away. (Several after that did; at the time we lived next door to an amazing cat hangout jungle, and they were all outdoor cats. The first one killed me.)

One sentence philosophy is "don't be a dick, none of us make it out of here alive," projected on overtones of non-militant opinionizing.

Something I've learned about myself? I'm introspective to the point of absurd narcissism, narrowing it down to one thing would be picking  a brick from a wall and saying "this one is hard and roughly cubical." I've learned that it takes very little to keep me happy, and takes very little to make me happy. Along those lines, I very much like being happy, and haven't noticeably deviated from happiness in years.

For a long time I had a public blog filled with long bouts of philosophically charged comedy, along those lines - though not super funny - is this recent blog post on my Facebook.

Just came across an old episode of SGU (The Skeptic's Guide to the Universe) with Phil Plait, the bad astronomer, talking about the merits of the astronomical science in Trek.

Here's a direct link, his interview is a few minutes in, maybe fifteen or twenty. (My Quicktime window is all black, so I can't tell.)
