- Saw a bunch of Santa hats lying alongside the entire length of the 55 South to 405 South ramp – and it’s a long bridge. Maybe a box came open?
- Got tech support question in Spanish for wrong company. Replied in bad Spanish with link. Checked against Google Translate. Google has a better vocabulary than I do. 🙁
- Roger Ebert dismantles Expelled (via @mikesterling).
Tag: TODO: Split
East/West, TV & Sudafed
- XKCD: The East/West terminology always bugged me too. But then, living in California, I figure we’re also on the Pacific Rim.
- What makes people think it’s OK to post insults/threats just because your old blog post isn’t what they wanted to find on Google? It was on the one about using the disarmed emergency exit as a shortcut during construction…5 years ago. WTF?
- You know, it would be nice if ABC would SAY things like “In 3 weeks” when they’re going to preempt Pushing Daisies 2 weeks in a row.
- I like having (nearly) full movement in my arm again.
- End of an era: Our last box of real Sudafed has expired.
Clarify and Classify
- If only the super high-tech jet fighters had identified, clarified & classified, they’d have seen the attack for what it really was.
- Good grief. “Traditional marriage” didn’t go away when gays were let into the club. It doesn’t need a discriminatory law to “restore” it.
- South Coast Plaza has Christmas decorations up ALREADY. Halloween doesn’t exist, I guess. Or Thanksgiving.
Bunch O Links
Some random links I’ve come across today
Peter David has gotten an ElfQuest tattoo to raise money for the CBLDF. He follows up: “What have you done for the CBLDF lately?” Well, I’ve plugged it on my website and bought a T-shirt… (Edit: It seems Neil Gaiman just missed this by not answering his phone.)
Pir(l)ouettes – a commentary on Adobe’s history of the ampersand.
ACLU – Pizza – a funny/chilling animation of what might go on if a pizza place could cross-reference your health, library, and banking records while you were on the phone.
