More 4th, New Blogging peoples and Some Thoughts on Cool Websites

So first off, my friend Jason has created a blog over at blogspot, and you can check it out here. I think that maybe if we can get him to move, someone should toss him a Livejournal code……ehhh, cough, alex, cough….and we can convince him to join our little circle before he gets too entrenchened in blogspot. But at least for now, go check out his current blog

In other things of note, yesterday was cool. I hung out with people from church at Lake of the Woods in Mahomet, and then a lot of them left to go see fireworks back in champaign, but Dirk, Michelle, Steph (yes my X), Jason, Jenine (his wife), and I stayed and watched there at the Lake. The fireworks were cool, but the traffic was a nightmare afterwards. I swear….Mohomet is really the Champaign suburb, cuz people drive like crap….just like all the people I know from the Chicago Burbs. Anyway all in all that was a great time, lots of burgers, lots of hot dogs….volley ball, and good friends.

But afterward, all the people in Mohomet came back to our house and started hanging out. This led to all our girlfriends/wives, and my X (yes that is probably dangerous for me somehow, but I’ll live) going shopping today, and to me showing Jason a bunch of websites. So I thought…a lot of us go to websites for new, tech stuff, and funny stuff, so we should start passing around a list so we can get all our favorite stuff on one big kind of list. So without further adieu, here it is.

Funny
Penny Aracade
A great Comic strip about video games.

SinFest
A great comic about all sorts of stuff…ranging from God and Satan, to sex and relationships.

Home Star Runner…a great flash site…read the StrongBad Emails (sbemails)

Technology
I’m gonna do a list of news/review sites without descriptions…cuz I could talk about these a lot

Toms Hardware
Anandtech
Slashdot
The Inquirer (Tech Rumors…not the tabloid)

I know there is more stuff I go to….but I can’t think of them right now….so….I will stop this nonsense…and say….Goodevening.
