Jason Earles
Hannah Montana's Jason Earles (AKA Miley/Hannah's big brother, Jackson Stewart!) talks about his crush on Scarlett Johansson, Taco Bell addiction, and resemblance to Michael J. Fox in Back to the Future!
Young Love
My first kiss was at 7. [This girl and I] used to hang underneath a blanket at recess and play house. We would just lay under the blanket and kiss for the entire recess. We never get caught.
She's Just Not That Into You
Probably Scarlett Johansson. Shes hot no matter what. She could be in frumpy sweatpants and a sweatshirt and shes still incredibly attractive.
Oh-So Retro
I dont understand leggings. They were the worst trend of the '80s I dont understand why theyre back.
Jack & Rose Forever!
I actually cried during Titanic. It was one of the few movies Ive seen in the theater multiple times. I've probably seen Titanic 10 times. And for a movie thats that long, its an awful amount of time of your life to devote to one movie.
Reality TV Junkie
I watch a lot of Lost and Battlestar Galactica. And I almost always watch Project Runway, Survivor, and Amazing Race.
Way Back When...
A younger Michael J. Fox. I think the Back to the Future Michael J. Fox would play me.
Under the Sea
Id probably be a marine biologist at a place like Sea World. Math and science were my favorite subjects besides theater. So I always liked the outdoor biology, conservation, genetics that sort of stuff.
Scarlett Fever
Whos dating Scarlett Johansson right now? [Shes married to Ryan Reynolds.] I would be Ryan Reynolds for the day.
Keep It Real with the 'Rents
I would probably say my parents, even more so than my brother and my sister. I talk to my parents more than anybody in my family.
Home Video Star
Probably just YouTube. Theres tons of great stuff on there. My favorite video...actually, this is really narcissistic, but I did YouTube videos with this group from HBO. They do this elevator show. And theres a YouTube video called "Mentoring Body" that they did. I dont know why it just cracks me up. Its a little bit more inappropriate I think than Hannah Montana. Some of the jokes are a little more adult. And its just sort of goofy and different than the stuff I do every day on the show.
Mmm, Crunchy!
Crunch wraps from Taco Bell. I have no idea what they put in them but it might be the most addictive thing ever.
Who Cut the Cheese?
I have been occasionally known to burp and expel gas from the other end at inappropriate times. Like sometimes during the takes of Hannah Montana.
Jam Session
"Your Ex-Lover Is Dead" by Stars.
Rockin' Out
Rockband 3 for the Playstation 3. I suck at the drums and wish I was better. So I tend to stick to guitar, But I do like the drums.. I never do the singing. Im the only person from the Disney Channel that doesnt have a record deal, and theres a reason why.
Sweet Dreams
Is Scarlett Johansson the right answer?
Deep Pockets
I actually dont carry a wallet. I just sort of carry my ID and my credit card. And some bills are loose in my pocket. I probably have $100 in my pocket right now.
Bright Future Ahead
Playing lacrosse. Also I was worried about the future.

|Bob Eichler's Web Site
|Last updated December 15th, 2014
Welcome to my web site. The site as it exists now is actually a condensed version of the sprawling web site I had built with my original dial-up account. That site is sadly just a memory now.
In the summer of 2007, I finally made the transition to a high-speed internet connection, which meant that my old dial-up account was going to bite the dust. I tried to decide whether I wanted to go though the hassle of re-hosting the entire site to the space provided by my new ISP, and eventually decided that that would be too much of a pain. In fact, I was thinking of just letting the whole web thing go - it started out as a "vanity" project in the mid 90s, before my daughter was born (back when I still had lots of free time), when having a "personal web site" was a novelty for computer geeks rather than the common thing it has become for most people.
But over the years I've gotten a lot of positive email from people about certain parts of my web site, and I did put a lot of work into building the thing. So I decided on this "condensed" approach, trying to balance the amount of pages that I wanted to re-host against how much work it would take to do so. The result is what you see before you. I may eventually add more stuff, piece-by-piece, but I doubt the site will ever be as big as it was back in mid-2007 again.
Anyway, here's a quick table of contents for what you'll find on this site:
|Frank Zappa Reviews - At the end of the 20th century, I suddenly got the insane idea to attempt to write reviews of all of Zappa's albums over the span of about two and a half weeks. Somehow I pulled it off, and despite their quickly-thrown-together nature, the Zappa review pages have generated far and away the most email I've gotten about anything on my web site. So I had to rehost the whole mess over to my new site. I've even kept it up to date, with reviews of all the posthumous Zappa releases.
|Zappa references on MST3K - As you can tell from the Zappa reviews section, Frank Zappa is one of my favorite composers/musicians. The writers for the cult TV show Mystery Science Theater 3000 must have liked him a lot too, because they threw obscure references to him into many of their episodes. As I traded tapes of old episodes with other fans, I started to wonder just how many times Frank was referenced. So I started documenting, and eventually came up with what I'm pretty sure is a definitive list of Zappa references on MST3K. I know, no one else cares, but what is the web for if not usless info like this?
|Does Humor Belong in USENET? - There are some damned funny people posting to newsgroups, or at least there used to be, before web-based forums stole a lot of the regular posters away. But here, documented for all time (or at least until I take the page down) are some prime examples of how much fun it could be to read USENET, once upon a time. Oh yeah, there's also a MiSTing that I did of a Charlton Heston diatribe in there too.
|Nintendo Gameboy Connection Cable Conniptions - After spending about a month trying to figure out how to get two old Gameboy games to successfully communicate with each other using Gameboy Advance SP units, I decided to document my findings for the benefit of other video game fans. I thought this information would be readily available on the web, but I had to dig long and hard to find it, and even then it was spread out over multiple pages. This brings all the information together in one place, with pictures.
|Indenture Solution - a long time ago, in an age when people could enjoy video games with simple, blocky graphics, there was the grandfather of all graphic adventure games, the appropriately entitled Adventure for the Atari 2600. One guy who enjoyed that game as much as I did was Craig Pell. In fact, he liked it so much he wrote his own DOS version, which was an exact simulation of the original game, but also added new difficulty levels that expanded the game out to 10 times its original size (and approximately 100 times its original difficulty). I doubt anyone out there still plays Indenture, but if you have gotten stuck in it, then you may find my solution/walkthrough file useful.
|The Microvision Simulation Project - The Microvision was a primitive hand-held video game system from the late 70s, the first one to feature interchangeable cartridges. I tried to start a programmer collective to write emulators/simulators for all the Microvision games, preferrably as playable web pages. I didn't think it would be too hard, since the original games were mostly pretty simple. It turned out to be harder than I thought, and I didn't get any volunteers to help with the programming, so the project died with only four simulators written. Enjoy what's there though.
|Why I hate Stored Procedures - A rant that only a crusty computer programmer like myself could identify with. My bosses at work made the decision, against my strenuous disagreement, that ALL database access should be done via stored procedures. What the heck, they weren't the ones who had to do the programming. It made life a living hell. If you are a programmer and you've been forced to use stored procedures against your will, give this a read and see if you agree.
|Rants - just so as not to leave a big blank spot on this page, here's one last link. This one goes to a page where I just complain about various computer and internet hosting companies that have provided me with the shoddiest of service. I just wrote this to blow off some steam, but you might want to skim over to so you know who to avoid.
Added 9/14/07: ProgDay '07 - read more than you ever cared to about this year's big outdoor progressive rock festival.
Added 12/21/07: Video Game Memories - yet another rambling, lengthy monologue, this time about all the video games that I've played and loved over the last 30 or so years. It started out as a response to a web article that I read about the 50 most important releases in video game history, and grew out of control from there. Read only if you have a lot of time to kill and a love of old video games.
Added 6/19/08: Brandy - a tribute to our beloved hound, who was taken from us far too soon.
Added 9/14/07: ProgDay '08 - another overlong and opinionated description of my annual trek to my favorite musical event, the outdoor prog-rock festival ProgDay.
Added 4/8/09: Yesoteric - A historic documentation of the massive collection of rarities by the progressive rock band Yes.
Added 8/7/09: Vacation Travelogue - Pictures, stories and gripes from our family vacation to Disney and Cocoa Beach in July of 2009.
Added 9/21/09: ProgDay '09 - the third in a series of long-winded descriptions of my trip to the annual ProgDay progressive rock festival.
Added 11/13/2009: Cerebus The Aardvark - back on my old Epix-hosted web site I had a sprawling review of the comic book, er, graphic novel series "Cerebus" that eventually strayed off topic and became a rant about the author and his religious beliefs. I didn't re-host it over to this Comcast site because the only email I ever got about it was the occasional hate mail from people who were offended by my remarks about religion. But just today I got a request from someone who was cleaning up dead links on a Cerebus fan site asking if I could put my review back up. So here it is.
Added 11/13/2009: The Dark Tower - while I'm at it, I might as well put the sprawling review I wrote of Stephen King's Dark Tower series of books back up as well.
Added 09/17/2010: How I Connected an iPod to my 2005 Prius - After being told by two different professional car audio installers that it was impossible, I found an adapter that could let my Prius connect to my iPod and installed the thing myself. Dang right I'm proud of myself. :-)
Added 09/21/2010: ProgDay 2010 - Another year, another ProgDay...and another long-winded write-up with photos.
Added 09/24/2011: ProgDay 2011 - Yet another long-winded write-up (with photos) of the longest running, and for my money best progressive rock festival around.
Added 10/03/2011: iPod Rant - I wrote this several months ago at work when I had some free time and emailed it to my home account to put up on this web site...then completely forgot about it. I just found it while cleaning out my email inbox, so here it is...why the iPod is really overrated.
Added 09/16/2012: ProgDay 2012 - You guessed it - this year's entry my the ever-expanding catalog of long-winded write-ups of my favorite music festival.
Added 05/18/2013: Saturday Night Live Season Six - Why? Why not?
Added 09/14/2013: ProgDay 2013 - Another annual report/scrapbook/overly-opinionated review of my favorite musical event.
Added 05/11/2014: The Best Yes Solo Albums - Recently I've found myself listening to a lot of solo albums released by the various members of the band Yes over the years, and at the same time trying to teach myself some of the basics of web page layout using style sheets. So the natural result, of course, is an overly-opininated, styled-to-the-point-of-being-an-eyesore web page about the best Yes solo albums.
Added 06/07/2014: Cheap Trick - Cheap Trick has long been a guilty pleasure band of mine, and last night I got the chance to see them in concert for the first time in many years. To get ready for the show, I listened to all their albums (you might be surprised at how many discs that is) and decided to write up a little blurb review of each one, which ended up turning into a web page that's pretty much a career overview of the band.
Added 07/17/2014: Electric Light Orchestra - Doing that Cheap Trick page put me in the mood to write some more about music, so I picked another of my favorite bands from the 70s/80s, ELO, and did a write-up about each of their albums. Enjoy, or ignore - the choice is yours.
Added 09/15/2014: ProgDay 2014 - A belated write-up of this year's outdoor progressive rock extravaganza, the 20th annual ProgDay. A vacation followed by illness delayed this year's write-up, but it's finally here.
Added 11/14/2014: Pink Floyd's Endlesss River - Some thoughts on the new Pink Floyd album.
Added 12/15/2014: Isaac Asimov's Robot/Empire/Foundation saga - I've been re-reading this classic sci-fi series recently, and decided to throw together a web page about it. Some of the books are just kind of skimmed over currently - I haven't had time to re-read all the Foundation books yet, so some of their descriptions are a little thin right now. I'll try to flesh them out as I read each book.
Well, that's it for now.
If you want to send me an email to point out the flaws and spelling errors of this site (I know there's got to be at least a few), feel free. My email address, and hopefully this will be confusing enough to confound spam bots but not too confusing for humans to figure out, is this: my last name (see top of this page) in all lower case letters, followed by the number two (in digit form, not spelled out) at Comcast followed not by dot com, but rather by dot net (look at this page's URL for example). No spaces or underscores or anything - just run all that together and you've got it. I know, no one will be able to figure that out, but it's better than getting tons of spam.
Here's some of the feedback I've gotten so far:
"By the way, I took a look at the rest of your site (stop wincing). Honestly, I like it. Your site has purpose, and your sense of humor makes it fun. I give it two repetative-stress-crippled thumbs up!" - Tom Warren, noted web-surfer and...old high-school and college friend.
"Great page, man." - Chris Swab, noted musician and scholar and...another old high-school and college friend.
My Zappa References on MST3K page was called "a must for fans of Zappa and MST3K" on the "May Web Site Highlights" page of the Mining Co's MST3K pages, although I've long since forgotten which year that was, exactly. 2001? Is the Mining Co even around any more?
Last but not least, here's a cool picture of a sunset I took from my front steps one day in early 1999. Why's it here? Because I really wanted to include it on the web site somewhere and couldn't come up with a better spot. It actually started out as two photos taken a couple seconds apart and from different angles, but someone named Timothy Kreitz saw it on my web page and photoshopped it into one big picture for me. Thanks Tim.

Antique and Classic Boat Rendezvous
Every year some of the most outstanding boats in the country converge at Mystic Seaport for the Antique and Classic Boat Rendezvous. The annual event showcases restored antique vessels built before 1970, including cruisers, sailboats, runabouts, and launches. Visitors are invited to see the vessels on display at Mystic Seaport all day Saturday and Sunday morning. An award competition will recognize excellence in restoration, authenticity, and workmanship. This year, the Rhodes Reliant class is featured.
Austin Healey Car Show
In addition to the antique boats, the Austin-Healey Club of America will display 20 vehicles on the Village Green from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Saturday, July 26. Examples of the entire Austin-Healey line – 100s, 3000s, 3000 convertibles, and Sprites – will be exhibited on the Green and the car owners will be on hand to answer questions.
Boat Parade
Sunday at 12:30 p.m. the classic vessels will take part in a three-mile parade down the historic Mystic River led by the Museum's very own 1908 steamboat Sabino. Each boat will be announced on the shore at Mystic River Park as it passes through the iconic bascule bridge. The spectacular boats and their costumed crews will make their way down river to Fishers Island Sound in what has become a highlight of the Mystic summer season.

The cruel irony is that abortion has been presented as something that would set a woman free. This brings to mind the gypsy in Verdi's opera Il Trovatore. Outraged by the count's cruel injustice, she stole his infant son and, in a crazed act of vengeance, flung him into the fire. Or so she thought. For, in turning around, she discovered the count's son lay safe on the ground behind her; it was her own son she had thrown into the flames. Abortion can present itself as glittering liberty, a defiant way to cast off the shackles of injustice. That illusion lasts only until you realize who it was that you threw into the flames. So the second point to make when trying to persuade is that abortion hurts women; it does not deliver on its promise to liberate them.Frederica Matthewes-Green
The point in history at which we stand is full of promise and danger. The world will either move forward toward unity and widely shared prosperity - or it will move apart.Franklin D. Roosevelt
The very first law in advertising is to avoid the concrete promise and cultivate the delightfully vague.Bill Cosby
Beauty is the promise of happiness.Stendhal
Dream lofty dreams, and as you dream, so you shall become. Your vision is the promise of what you shall one day be; your ideal is the prophecy of what you shall at last unveil.James Allen
He who is most slow in making a promise is the most faithful in performance of it.Jean-Jacques Rousseau
There is the kiss of welcome and of parting, the long, lingering, loving, present one; the stolen, or the mutual one; the kiss of love, of joy, and of sorrow; the seal of promise and receipt of fulfillment.Thomas C. Haliburton
Promise yourself to be just as enthusiastic about the success of others as you are about your own.Christian Larson
What is one to say about June, the time of perfect young summer, the fulfillment of the promise of the earlier months, and with as yet no sign to remind one that its fresh young beauty will ever fade.Gertrude Jekyll
Commitment turns a promise into reality with words that speak boldly of your intentions and actions that speak louder than words.Steve Brunkhorst
We promise according to our hopes and perform according to our fears.Francois De La Rochefoucauld
The key to overcoming aloneness and a feeling of uselessness for one who is physically able is to step outside yourself by helping others who are truly needy. We promise those who will render this kind of service that, in some measure, you will be healed of the loss of loved ones or the dread of being alone. The way to feel better about your own situation is to improve someone else's circumstances.Ezra Taft Benson
It is a mistake to imagine that potentially great men are rare. It is the conditions that permit the promise of greatness to be fulfilled that are rare. What is so difficult to achieve is the cultural background that permits potential greatness to be converted into actual greatness.Fred Hoyle
To desire is to obtain; to aspire is to, achieve. Shall man's basest desires receive the fullest measure of gratification, and his purest aspirations starve for lack of sustenance? Such is not the Law: such a condition of things can never obtain: "ask and receive." Dream lofty dreams, and as you dream, so shall you become. Your Vision is the promise of what you shall one day be; your Ideal is the prophecy of what you shall at last unveil.James Allen
I fully realize that every promise I make, the Republicans will double and the Democrats will redouble. They think this will make me vulnerable, but they dont know I have some tricks up my sleeve, along with a box of raisins to munch on while Im waiting for the returns to come in.Grace Ethel Cecile Rosalie Allen
Presumption has many forms; and it is worth considering, whether a great and good Being would most disapprove the presumption which expected too much from His goodness, or the presumption which dared positively to disbelieve His promise.William Arthur
I promise you nothing is as chaotic as it seems. Nothing is worth your health. Nothing is worth poisoning yourself into stress, anxiety, and fear.Steve Maraboli
If you learn to know your enemy before you hate him, you may learn not to have an enemy. Too often a Montmer will take one today over three yesterdays and two tomorrows. To see the world with the eyes of others is to stand atop a new mountain. Knowing the length of a Montmers ear wont tell you if he can listen. Better to live with ten Montmers in uneasy peace than one in a war. When you take one backward hop it requires two hops to go forward. You are never more alone when you are followed by many. Fear not the weak, only they try to hide their weaknesses. Nothing in the world is so small that the sun cannot warm it. Truth is often painful to speak but soothing to live. Of all things the hardest to keep is a promise. Lies fly then fall. Truth hops but keeps going. Of all challenges the greatest is to be yourself. They who pine for the past, fear the future. A life without a challenge is a life not lived. Life is given. The rest one gives oneself. Ignorance is the cruelest weather. Only the dead have no choices. The future begins in the past.Edward Irving Wortis
I could have been a serious athlete, only to have my promise cut short when I discovered Woodbines and women. Thankfully I have long since given up the former, and the latter have long since given up on meexcept, of course, for the lovely Lady Stratford, who for reasons beyond my comprehension still tolerates my presence.Tony Banks
At fifteen, beauty and talent do not exist; there can only be promise of the coming woman.Honor de Balzac
"There is more joy in giving than in receiving." Never doubt the truth of our Lord's promise that whatever we give him of our creativity, our resources, our persons, will come back to us in abundance.Pope Benedict XVI
Success is full of promise till men get it; and then it is last year's nest from which the bird has flown.Henry Ward Beecher
But one thing it opened her eyes to, and made certain from the first instant of her new consciousness, namely, that since she loved him she could not keep her promise to marry him.Edward Bellamy

By Holly Austin Smith — From her column Speaking Out in the Washington Times Communities
WASHINGTON, December 19, 2012 – The National Conference of State Legislatures' (NCSL) Fall Forum was held earlier this month in Washington D.C., and I was honored to join Oscar-winning actress and U.N. Goodwill Ambassador, Mira Sorvino, in the plenary session of speakers. Also a wife, mother, and Harvard graduate, Mira devotes much of her time towards promoting awareness for the heinous crime of human trafficking and advocating for its victims. In her speech, she urged legislators to adopt numerous state laws aimed at preventing trafficking, prosecuting traffickers and buyers, and protecting victims.
During her speech, Mira unveiled a U.S. map which highlighted each state's rating according to Polaris Project's grading system. Polaris Project rated all 50 states and the District of Columbia based on ten categories of laws. Each state was placed in one of four tiers based on whether it had passed legislation in each of the ten categories.
Some statistics from Polaris Project:
- Twenty-one states are currently in the top category, Tier 1 (up from 11 states in 2011)
- Only four are in the bottom category of Tier 4 (down from nine states in 2011)
- One-third of states increased their rating by at least one tier
- Washington had the highest point total (with 11 out of 12)
- Wyoming was lowest (with -2 points)
- Massachusetts and West Virginia passed their first human trafficking laws in the past year

We are so much more than just an online portal! Our mail packs are sent out to several thousand clients and all members are free to participate. We can even get postcards printed for you.
All inclusive! Save money with an annual subscription. Agent rates available upon request. All artists considered.
You'll find there are lots of benefits to being part of our collective, but it's a simple case of maths if you want a good plain reason as to why it's better to be with us rather than going it alone. Hosting, maintenance and support for your portfolio is on a state-of-the-art server. We have access to up-to-date and reliable mailing lists. Our email newsletters go out to several thousand commissioning contacts, not just other illustrators. We send out 15-20 mail packs and promos per week and we advertise on numerous industry related sites.

Weekday Warrior - Bike to Work
December 06, 2011
Mandatory gear: Commuter bike, bike bag or panniers, lock, fenders, helmet, bike lights
The gist: Leave the car behind. Freedom and exercise on your commute.
Traffic jams no longer! Tens of thousands of Americans have discovered the joy of biking to school or work each day. Beyond the simple pleasure of riding streets and bike paths instead of driving crowded highways, bike commuting offers built-in exercise, a lower-cost commuting option, and a method of movement through the city that leaves far less impact on the Earth.
Do you bike urban singletrack trails? Maybe you build two-story snow forts? Submit a photo and a caption of yourself being a "Weekday Warrior" to win Köppen gear! We'll highlight the best submissions on this page. (Submission form is below on left; upload as many photos as you see fit, and we'll contact you if your image wins!)
- Learn about how to be
a Weekday Warrior
Ad Hoc "Alleycat" Bike Race
Mimic the routine of a professional bike messenger.
Skateboarding with Dog
Kick and glide on your skateboard.
Night Games
Capture the Flag, Ghost in the Graveyard, and Kick the Can.
Open Water Swimming
Triathletes do it. You can too! Ditch pool laps for a lake swim.
Urban Bushwhacking
Trails? Pff. Who needs trails when you can walk in the woods!
Bike to Work
Leave the car behind. Freedom and exercise on your commute.
Night Hike
Get your flashlight ready. Hiking in the dark is a whole new world.

I teach in the Women, Gender and Sexuality Studies Department at Portland State University in Portland, OR. I teach classes about north American girls and popular culture, and the history of American popular music with special critical attention to race and gender. I have volunteered with the Rock 'n' Roll Camp for Girls in Portland for ten years, and in August 2013 I will travel to Bahrain to teach a music camp for girls. I am very interested in learning more about musical cultures of girls and women from around the Persian Gulf.

The book, written by Big Love's Seth Greenland, is about three brothers: a cop studying Buddhism, a criminal and a scheming U.S. Congressman running for his third term.
David Kanter will executive-produce the project along with Greenland. The book is out next Tuesday.

NCSL's election experts break down the midterm state legislative elections along voters' verdict on statewide ballot measures.
Current Issue
This task force, in its early years, was instrumental in crafting the interstate streamlined sales tax agreement and in assisting state legislatures as they considered implementing the agreement. It continues the latter function when appropriate and now serves a critical role in overseeing the activities of the streamlined sales tax governing board.
The leaders and members of the task force have been invaluable in lobbying Congress to adopt federal streamlined sales tax legislation. In addition, the task force continues to consider a variety of issues related to taxation of telecommunications. More
