    • Top 100 Sci-Fi/Fantasy Novels of All Time Obviously, a list like this one is subject to a _lot_ of debate due to everyone's personal taste. Still, it's not a bad list of works. Herewith, in true blog-meme style, the list, with those that I've read in **bold**. ➡

    • Beastie Boys are the new Bon Jovi The camera-toting fans took those instructions to heart. They shot the band, they shot the fans, they shot their fellow camera operators. Four even took their cameras along on their bathroom breaks. ➡

    • Prior art for ‘nofollow’ blocking Most of the time I see block-level 'nofollow' mentioned, credit has gone to Brad Choate's post from Feb. 2002. However, the idea itself dates as far back as Jan. 2001 in Zoltan Milosevic's Fluid Dynamics Search Engine. ➡
    • Battling the spammers After a comment spam attack brings my server to its knees, I rename the comment and trackback scripts only to have the attacks begin again as soon as the files are rebuilt and the spamming scripts target the new script location. This sucks a lot, and I'm really not sure where to go from here outside of disabling comments entirely on the affected sites. ➡

    • Evolution It's kind of a slow Saturday today, so Candice and I rented a couple movies to kill the day with. She's working on homework while I watch the flicks, and the first one I checked out was Evolution. ➡

    • A dark day for buttrock Well, just found out that Metallica's bassist has quit the band. I'm just kind of curious how long it'll take before we start hearing news stories about the majority of the Mat-Su valley slitting their wrists in dispair.... ➡

    • [From Usenet: 1.19.99 0000] Incidentally, she just provided the voice for one of the supporting characters in the animated film 'Prince of Egypt' - I figured it was her when I heard her sing, then checked the credits to be sure. ➡
