Cynically Optimistic

I was kicking back watching the American Music Awards and surfing the web, as you do. I found this little program called Ecto that lets you compose blog entries using a rich OS X Client instead of typing them into the crummy little box on the MovableType Entry page. Supposedly, this will prevent me from accidentally having my entries deleted if I'm surfing around and hit the back button accidentally or something. It automatically configured itself for me when I ran it the first time and so far I've got no complaints. It looks like it supports just about every possible blog software you could hope to try.

Ok, let's see if Outkast will with the favorite Rap/Hip-Hop Group award. Did anyone really expect them to not win? Andre3000 is no present, as is “that girl with the ass” from the Outkast videos. Oooh, and Big Boi got silenced. Still to come... Janet's titty we can only hope. Bring on the Wardrobe Malfunctions.

Oh! Did ya'll hear that O.D.B. died, he was only 35, and he had a lot of kids? For those out of the loop, he liked to change his name a lot. Maybe you remember Ol' Dirty Bastard, Big Baby Jesus, or Dirt McGurt, a.k.a Russell Jones. Maybe you just remember him as a member of the Wu Tang Clan. I think I'll remember him as the guy who said:

“I'm gonna find some more women to put babies into.”
