wow…lord of the rings smackdown! a clean sweep with 11 oscars…holy shit! its now tied the most oscars won with titanic and ben-hur…lovely company. 11 oscars tho…it was like they had their thumb and forefinger prepped and just went around aiming at everybodys head going, “im squishing your head…im squishing your head…” they won almost every single category they were nominated in…or was it every single category? woo peter jackson! i think he shat his pants walking up to the stage.
oh, and go sofia coppola for best screenplay…woo! i figure that they had to give best picture and best director to the lord of the rings and peter jackson, so it was coo that she still received an oscar for best original screenplay. highlights of the nite included…annie lennox’s performance of “into the west“, the triplets of belleville number, jack black and will ferrell’s lyrics ad lib, aeon flux winning an oscar, and the next door neighbors slamming their fucking door 10 times. do you people not know how to close your doors normally? i hate those wankers. > continued…

dude, that had to be the most boring oscar show ever.
i too enjoyed jack and will, but eugene levy coming out to sing that song was just too funny.
arent all the oscars generally boring? and shit, forgot about eugene levy and the mighty wind! “and on drums…oh wait…”
this is a good point. but at least last year there was some controversy. with michael moore getting booed/cheered and whatnot.
question, do you and tien work together? web design-related stuff?
answer: yep. nope. that is all.
right. i mean, really, have you seen my site?!? there’s no design to it. here though, there is much more of a design element.
i think both sites look pretty nice. yes, veritech’s have more design elements but i also like the clean lines and uncluttered look of tien’s. if i may ask, did you guys get any help customizing the movabletype templates or did you do it yourselves.
why thank you. i think we both started from a default template and then changed it as we saw fit. mine is closer to the default and this site has more bells and whistles, if you will.
its like i dont even need to comment…woo.
I think both your sites suck. You need to pick some really cool colors first, like maybe red and gray. Then add in some poor photoshopping, unoriginal content, and craptastic pictures. But I guess not everyone can have a site as gay as mine. Oh, and Jersey sucks.
I’m going to go barbecue a cow.

Mmmmm…cowsack. Dude, that chick was totally on my match.com attractiveness test “wouldn’t do if she was the last bitch alive” category.
