I just received a book I ordered from some place in Kansas, and it had an old price tag on it from the Strand here in New York.

Yeah! My sailing certification is here. Hear that Dr. Marvin?

Ouch! There was a rock in my General Tso’s Chicken.

Just watched Kurosawa’s “Ran.” It’s quite epic. Serious family issues.

Ken’s Most Awesome Tuna Sandwich Ever: Ahi tuna steak rubbed in garlic salt, seared and sliced. Placed between two slices of home made white bread with cold cut turkey, American cheese, mayo, and fresh basil leaves.

Don’t watch “Manhattan” unless you plan on taking a long nap. The concept was good, and so was imagery, but the dialogue tries too hard to be smart. A good flick for nostalgia, but not for fun.

Watching Woody Allen’s “Manhattan.” Never seen it before. Love Gershwin.

Is “ept” the opposite of “inept?”

“I had the most depressing Thursday ever one Thursday. My friends were nowhere to be found, so I wandered through the city until I ended up at Wendy’s, where I cried into my Diet Coke.” — Jelly Roper, American Sage.

Now that I know a little more about CSS, I decided to improve the template I use for this blog, and make it a little more efficient. It should work fine in Firefox, but I had to use a workaround to get it to work in Internet Explorer. The header, with its 4-column layout is the problem.

I’m getting a little bored with the colors, so I may make some changes in the weeks to come. I still haven’t figured out how to post HTML code in a blog post without Blogger trying to read it. Once I do, though, I’ll be sure to post a generic version of this template so you can use it on your own blog.

The list of Recent Articles is a RSS feed from del.icio.us, displaying my links tagged with “kensarticles.” I’ve been running it through FeedDigest to display it on the site, but I just found out that del.icio.us has their own little Javascript thingamajig that lets you display a list of links on a web site. I want to switch over some time soon, since FeedDigest seems to be a little overloaded sometimes and run slow. Now that del.icio.us has been bought by Yahoo!, I feel a little more confident that the service won’t just crash and die someday.
