Petro: I think doing the Captain Planet comic is a great idea. I'm totally down. You can find the old scripts here. I'll, y'know, finish my thing too. -- Fucking yes! -- We'll chat this shit up some time soon.

Some updated 'Homegrown Links' on the side there for you folks (yeah, I finally got off my ass (so to speak; I was sitting the whole time) and took care of this.) Lemme know if anything else comes up, or if there's anything else you'd like linked here.

Also, I don't know how many people read RSS feeds for their news, or would be interested in an aggregation of news feeds here. I'm thinking of whipping something like that up this weekend (shouldn't take too long.) I'm thinking BBC and CBC, because they already have feeds. Anything other news sources you'd like to see?

eric, are you still interested in that book/cd/dvd trading system idea? If so, let me know. I have a pretty firm idea of how I want the underlying stuff to work (and I've just learned a thing or two about screenscraping, so attaching it to amazon wouldn't be so hard.) What I don't have such a good idea about is what it would look like (ie. the interface). I'm hoping that's where you (or some other ambitious design person) may come in.

Par, I think I would be down for Star Wars, I'd like to see it sometime this weekend at least.

As for Linear Algebra, I passed Math 325 - Linear Algebra III, so I might be able to take a stab at it, unless there's someone who has actually done Skyline Matrices or LU Decompostion, maybe we can talk math at starwars.

Remember, you can't spell Algebra without a Bra.

Jess, I'm pretty much free next week, in the evenings, anyway. I still have to pick up the hostel membership, though. I guess it's my turn to host, too, huh?

I'm afraid I don't get the Dinner With Andre joke. Movie? But "Seacrest... out!" Now there's an American Idol joke for the masses!

Questions:

* Does someone versed in linear algebra want to explain either Skyline Matrices or LU Decomposition to me? (Probably not on the message board, though.)

* Has anyone had experience in building webpages using CSS for layout (as opposed to the tabled nightmare I've built here)?

* Is anyone who is not going camping interested in some Star Wars Sunday?

* What exactly is newsworthy about Saddam's underwear? More importantly, what is front-page-newsworthy about them?

* How do I pick up and carry my computer?

Hey Andy, do you still have the script you made for that Captain Planet Comic? All this talk about making comics reminded me of that. Now that I'm slowly becoming more and more savy with Illustrator and Photoshop, who knows what could happen.

Anway, it was fucking hilarious, and should continue to be shared with the world.

Thanks a bunch Tay. I'll tough it all out then.

Eric: Ha ha ha -- yeah man, I saw that one. In fact, I've been trying to use that Dinner with Andre joke like it was going out of style. Unfortunately nobody has had a clue about what the fuck I'm talking about. Ha ha! -- It's not so funny when you have to explain it...

oh yeah, as for Dune: the first few are checkmate, and then it gets really hurting in the middle but then the last book is fucking awesome, although you have to read the lame shit to get there. Duncan Idaho is cool in the last book.

Some parts aren't super great, but if you've read more than the first book, I'd suggest going all out and reading them all. I think that should be the new rule for Dune: if you're not gonna read them all just read the first book.
