    • On Coining Euphemisms Just a quick word of advice. When deciding to coin a euphamism, one might want to find out if the phrase in question has already been appropriated for something else.
    • Queen! (But who’s Paul Rodgers?) Queen (plus Paul Rodgers) is going to be performing in Seattle! On the one hand, I'm a _long_ time Queen fan...on the other hand...it's not Freddy.
    • Name Five… 'Quick -- name all the members of the Simpsons.' 'Um...Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa, Maggie.' 'Now -- what are the five rights given by the first amendment?' '...um. Oh. Heh...that's not good.'

    • Anybody hungry? Every Tuesday night, I have about the same routine. I get home from work a little after 5pm, Prairie and I chat via iChat until about 7pm, and I browse through NetNewsWire while we're chatting. At 7pm, I close down NetNewsWire, order some pizza, and pop in a DVD.

    • My brain hurts Wow...there's nothing quite like a Slashdot discussion of theoretical physics to make me feel _really_ unintelligent.
    • Just feeling a little quiet There's a lot of stuff out there on that in-tar-web thing these days, but I just haven't felt terribly talkative as of late. It's not really writers block as such, more of a general feeling of not having anything to add. It happens every so often.
    • Congratulations Peter (and everyone else)… …on setting a new record for the Oscars by winning every single one of the 11 Oscars that you were nominated for.

    • It came from Outer Faith Though no one's yet written a book on how to convert aliens, some religions do accept the idea of extraterrestrial intelligence. Find out how much you know about the intersection of faith and sci-fi.
    • Welcome to Earth, meet the leaders The world isn't run by a clever cabal. It's run by about 5,000 bickering, sometimes charming, usually arrogant, mostly male people who are accustomed to living in either phenomenal wealth, or great personal power. A few have both.
    • tail -f access_log Too often we get this image of the Web as a vast well-oiled machine, with glossy browser screens in front and masses of gleaming software in back. Watching the access_log is like a window into the side lobby of the legislature, or a tour of the fermentation vats at the brewery.
    • Snowflake pictures My parents have often teased me about how long it would take me to walk the three blocks to school when I was a kid, usually assuming that I had to examine every snowflake I saw to see if they were really all different. In normal Alaskan winters, of course, there are a lot of snowflakes. Even in only three blocks.
    • Credibility Gap The Bush Credibility Gap: The Photographic History of the Bush Administration Putting Its Mouth Where Its Money Isn't — it's nice to see something like this coming from the Democrats on Capitol Hill. Mayhaps we're starting to see a hint of Democratic backbone again?
    • Letter of Resignation …until this Administration it had been possible to believe that by upholding the policies of my president I was also upholding the interests of the American people and the world. I believe it no longer.
    • Pledge ruling upheld I have to admit, the mental picture of a man like Ashcroft — who's likely to equate Wiccanism with 'Satanism' — trying to cope with the concept of a 'patriotic Witch' makes me laugh. A lot.
    • Yawn! It's 8:30 in the morning, and I'm at work. Ugh.

    • Career changes It looks like tomorrow I'll give notice to TimeFrame that it's my last day, and come Monday I'll start working at GCI!
    • Cam improvements I'm up a bit later than I should be, as I stumbled across some JavaScript code that's allowed me to improve the Wudicam page a bit. So, less unecessary data being thrown across the 'net, and a much faster refresh time on the cam picture.
