John's Jaunty Jargon

Tuesday, March 21, 2006



I got a tattoo today.

Why? Not really sure- I've always wanted one and I think they're cool. I got something simple- a small star on my left wrist. Doesn't stand for anything in particular, just a figure of my independence and freedom (I'm not associating the star with the United States).

Anyway- it was exciting!

Screw MySpace...

So last night I signed up for a MySpace account. I hate it. Customizing The look of your page is horribly implemented. So I decided to fire up the old blogger blog and try to get into it- considering my life is pretty boring lately and I need an "outlet"- LOL.

So I'll be posting pics from my camera phone, stuff that I think is cool, digg.com articles, links, etc.

So stay tuned.
