    • Vinylicious Introducing a new blog: Vinylicous! I'm no hardcore vinyl collector, but I do keep an eye out for fun oddities to add to the collection I do have, and I'm planning on using Vinylicious to share some of the goodies I've found. ➡

    • PostSecret If you haven't run across [PostSecret][1] yet, you really should check it out. The concept is incredibly simple: people write their secrets on a postcard and send them in. Every Sunday, a new batch of secrets is posted on the site. ➡

    • The IT Crowd British humor and geek jokes (_lots_ of 'em, too, from Flying Spaghetti Monster posters to RTFM t-shirts to EFF 'Fair Use Has a Posse' stickers...essentially the entire set dressing) combined. ➡

    • Laurie Anderson: Mach 20 Now imagine, if you will, four hundred million blind and desperate sperm whales departing from the Pacific coast of North America, swimming at fifteen thousand miles per hour, and arriving in Japanese coastal waters in just under forty-five minutes. ➡
    • What about [some other blogging tool]? After reading my rant about comment spammers, Joel asked me if I'd thought about switching over to another weblogging system. Here's a (somewhat expanded) copy of what I sent back. ➡
    • The Al-Can Highway is no more! At least, according to Google's nifty new Google Maps page, that's the story. Realistically, I'm quite sure that this is simply because Google Maps doesn't have the Canadian highway system in their database at the moment. Hopefully that's only a temporary thing, as that is a search that returns good results in both Mapquest and Yahoo! Maps. ➡
    • The Spammers Have Won (for now) Until I have time to get in and do some rather major work on my webserver, I'm afraid that comments and TrackBacks are turned off. I really don't like doing this -- I like the interaction aspect, both getting into discussions and just knowing that people stop by here from time to time -- but the attacks on the server have been too severe and too regular, and I'm tired of battling them. ➡

    • So much for that secure entrance… Hey…could you help me? There's this crazy guy wandering the halls. He keeps banging on the doors…I don't know what to do. ➡
    • This is so juvenile. I’m very sorry. My computer doesn't like my Prick. ➡
    • Uff-da After fourteen trips down and up six stories to get three loads of laundry done, I really wish that they'd just go ahead and get the damn elevator in this place fixed. ➡
    • Geek backlash It was bound to happen eventually. It actually probably started happening a few years ago, but now it's actually getting news stories — 'geeks' are tired of fixing people's problems. ➡

    • Search back up Okay, the new search engine is installed and running. The pages don't mesh visually with the rest of the site yet, but I'll get that fixed up some other time -- Candice should be over sometime soon, and I wanted to be done with tonight's 'geeking out' before she got here. ➡
    • Search disabled I've just temporarily disabled the search function as I upgrade to a more powerful and full-featured search system offered by the same company. It should be back up within a couple hours at most (if all goes well). ➡

    • [From Usenet: 2.8.94 0325] If it's the same 'Cold Hearted Snake' as I'm thinking of, it was Paula Abdul, a few years back. Is the cover good? Might be interested in hearing it... ➡
