telcor — Mon, 18 Jul 2011 14:10:33 +0000

I just learned about this duo, Igudesman & Joo, via The Old New Thing. Mixing Mozart with The Bond Theme is great, as well as their Rachmaninov Had Big Hands sketch. Tour dates only for Eurpoe at this time though.

telcor — Sat, 15 Nov 2008 15:00:02 +0000

GOG, if you haven’t heard, is a way to purchase older games that work on newer systems. Many of the games are from the late 90′s and early 2000′s (although there are a few older than that), designed for either MS-DOS or the MS-Windows 9x line of operating systems. As such, some of the games [...] No related posts. Related posts brought to you by Yet Another Related Posts Plugin.

The different States of the USA, of course. The site also features a “Which Countries I Have Visited”, but mine is boring, comprised only of USA, Canada and Mexico. Must recitfy that. Anywho, here is the extent of my USA travels: create your own visited states map or check out these Google Hacks.

Stories I Write

telcor — Tue, 30 Nov 2004 15:57:46 +0000

One of my hobbies is writing stories. Many a time I thought of placing these stories online, even in unfinished format. At last I took steps today to accomplish this. Using MediaWiki, I created StoryWiki. While it does not follow the traditional role of a Wiki, it does let me publish in a better way [...] No related posts.

telcor — Wed, 30 Jun 2004 21:54:06 +0000

Last time I looked at the character Sirak who is haunted by a tragedy in his past. A tragedy that is hidden from his own consciousness but surfaces periodically to horrify and mystify. This time we will study The Edwards.

The premise is simple: often we have regrets, things a person wishes he did or [...] No related posts. Related posts brought to you by Yet Another Related Posts Plugin.

Clarification: Experiments in Fiction

telcor — Tue, 22 Jun 2004 19:39:07 +0000

After reading my previous post I realized my premise, although expressed, was hidden. Let me restate it. Often when a person writes there is little input beyond the author’s imagination.
