I fixed that terribly annoying bug that IE users were seeing when trying to leave comments on my site. It was that the comment text-box would extend all the way to the right, underneath the right column such that you couldn’t see what you typed… terribly annoying.
Fixed.
So now everybody comment like moon-struck werewolves.
From an email to a friend
>Are you still looking for a permanent apartment?
Yup. Do you have any pointers?
>How is the hunt for a meaningful existence going?
I’m wearing comfortable shoes and I’ve found a steady path but I’m not sure if it’ll lead into the fire swamp, the pit of dispair, or true love. I’m hoping for more of the latter and less of the former.
Very funny
And this one is especially for Trav
Holly was telling me that Humvees get 3 MPG. That sounded like propoganda so I checked it out…
Oh my. She’s not so far off! Gasoline powered Hummers get 4-7 MPG! Turbo diesels get 10-15.
That means my 45 mile commute to Cupertino a few days a week would cost $50 round-trip in gas instead of my current $10 round-trip! Something like an extra $6,000 a year in gas. (12,000 miles @ $3/gallon, Hummer 5MPG, Sebring 27MPG)
That’s why it’s a status symbol.
I want a 9000 SUX
TJIC writes how the city of Arlington, MA paved his street without informing anyone and … oh, you’ll have to read it for yourself. And the photo is priceless.

Emo Phillips was standing before a judge…
Judge, “Emo?”
Emo, “Yes.”
Judge, “Emo Phillips?”
Emo, “Yes.”
Judge, “You’re Emo Philips?”
Emo, “Well why don’t you just keep adding a word each time until your brain explodes!”
I remember a day when there were were just “queers”. Then it was “lesbians and gays”. Then those crazy bisexuals had to jump on the bandwagon. Of course, if bisexuals were doing it, then the transsexugenered folks were just steps behind. Now it’s those wile intersexed people! Pretty soon, it’ll go from being the “LGBTI community” to… queer.
My friend Warren is inches away from finishing Pony Trouble, a hilariously bloody movie. I just sent away for my advance fundraising copy of the movie. He’s done the movie mostly on shoestrings. You too can get an advance fundraising copy of the movie. Give me a buzz to find out how.
My dad is feeling great :-)
My product shipped. It’s still beta but it’s really good. Check it out!
I saw my Tara’s band at CBGB’s last night, The Crevulators. Twas fun!
I’m going over to see Niece Julia right now. :-)
My dad got out of his procedure fine. Phew! (apparently it’s not technically called an “operation” or “surgery”). They weren’t able to put the stent in because they couldn’t get around a tight corner but the balloon angioplasty was successful. Right out of surgery (or whatever it’s called) he looked and felt really good. He’s getting another one in a couple weeks but that angioplasty is much less risky.
He’ll be home tomorrow.
PHEW!
