Time Cannon

It is a period of civil war. Rebel spaceships, striking from a hidden base,,, bah nevermind... Wow i have resorted to posting and article in January and then going dark. All because I don't want this seldom used blog to go the way of the Dodo.  Why??? I have no clue.  Anyone still out there? Drop in the comments if you are. Peace....

A return of the Bacon. Is that possible?? Something is brewing.  Not sure if thats a good thing.  Check back soon......

Carry on, quit staring. Get.  Man did the dust pile up in here or what!?

10 YEARS man!!! Pual Spiricki (Jeremy Piven) in Grosse Pointe Blank Not quite 10 yet, but damn, 2 plus years (2 YEARS Man) without a peep from the ol Time Cannon. Im certain there was much wailing and gnashing of teeth, but hey that damn RL TM (Real Life) kept me away.   Anyway, here comes another feeble stab at blogging.  Your Friendly Neighborhood Bacon-Man Mmmbacon

Whoa (in my best Bill and Ted era Keanu) , WHOA!

Dating Tip #238: Find A Computer Demo Center : " The Atari 800, with its 1.79MHZ 8 bit processor, was manufactured from 1979 until 1982 when the 1200XL took its place. Of course, the upgraded machine was considered a 'bomb,' says the Atari Museum , because it didn't have any expansion slots, an external bus connector and featured only 2 of the 4 controller ports users got with the 800 — which of course makes the 800 the ultimate console for double dates. I'm sure Leonardo DiCaprio will cover this in the Atari movie .

So there is a cool little web aplet that will take any text you input and create a "word cloud." This is a classic, "why? Because it's freaking cool!" situations. So I cut and pasted every blog entry from The Cannon, and below is the result. You can make your own at Wordle

Eight long years of waiting and wondering if they were gonna do it one more time, will end on October 18th. The new single crackles the airwaves (sorry Rush) this week. I can't tell you how excited I am. Rock on Bishes!!!!!

Yet another of those images that is offensive, politically incorrect and most of all funny as hell. I apologize in advance. Wonder if the bitch stole his fish ?

It takes a quality site to get added to my Google Reader subscription list. And The Big Picture takes quality to a new level. The Big Picture , is a blog compiled semi-regularly by Alan Taylor. It focuses on current events and provides OUTSTANDING high quality images for each story. With as much information that is available on the internet, it's surprising that something like this hasn't already been done. But now it has, and it's done WELL. Think of it as a news story with pictures provided by National Geographic or Life Magazine. Simple and stunning. I check the feed reader constantly hoping to see the new Big Picture update. Go. Now. Enjoy it! The Big Picture

If you haven't jumped on the RSS bandwagon, you really need to investigate it. RSS is basically a way to subscribe to websites or your favorite blog. Instead of navigating the web using your traditional bookmarks, you read everything now through your RSS reader. There are regular clients that you install on your machine, but the most popular are the web based feed readers. I can't recommend Google Reader enough. This one tool has changed the way I interact with the 'Net. In a distant second place is bloglines . The key to the web feed reader, is the fact that you can use it on any machine with a internet connection. Work, home, kiosk, all your settings and "currently read" items will propagate accordingly. So, you take your favorite websites, blogs, etc and add them to your reader. Anytime content is added to any of the sites you subscribe to, the "Items unread" amount will increase accordingly. Now you have all the places that you hit on the inte...

When I started Time Cannon I had lofty goals of telling interesting stories, hopefully on a daily basis. I didn't want boring entries of an uneventful workdays or lists of minutia that goes on in my daily life. I think I posted some interesting stories, but the daily thing just didn't happen. Another thing I didn't want this to be, is a link-dump. You know, one of those blogs that has a link to that new Neiman Marcus cookie recipe. It seems those type blogs had the same content, no individuality at all. Well Ive had a revelation, my brother the other day, after sending him a cool link, asked me where I come up with this cool stuff. After thinking about it for awhile, I've come to the conclusion that I spend waaay too much time online. It could almost be classified as addiction I assume. Being online all the time, I usually have seen it before. If I haven't, and it's cool, people like my brother, that don't live on the internet, probably haven't and mig...
