    • Seattleites Trudeau tweaks locals. Also amusing (to my mind): the somewhat confused reactions of many locals in the Seattle LiveJournal group that I found this in. ➡

    • Trek in the 2100’s? According to the article, the new Trek film will be a prequel movie not directly associated with any of the existing shows, story lines -- or casts. This got me thinking about the timeline of the Trek universe. What do we have in the established Trek universe in the 2100s that might factor in to the new movie? ➡

    • Do you blog? Why? None of these three ways can come close to providing as accurate a depiction of the blogging population — who we all really are, why we blog, and how we're using our blogs — as a survey. ➡

    • I got into As The Apple Turns! Hey — I'm famous! Or...something like that. See, I stumbled across a link earlier today that I thought might be of interest to my favorite Apple-flavored soap opera, As the Apple Turns -- and they used it for one of their stories today! ➡
    • 2 hours in the life of a ‘puter geek Ever wondered just what 'geeking out' entails? Some nights it's diving into whatever the geek's code of choice is (HTML and CSS for me), other nights it's more hardware based. Well, tonight I had a problem with my primary work Mac, and kept a log of what I was doing as I went along. Feel free to take a look if you'd like…. ➡
    • Propaganda Propaganda, anyone? On the one hand, on a conceptual/artistic level, I like most of what I see. However, on a more intellectual level, it's just frightening. ➡

    • Buckets of what? Times I wish I had a 'completely bizarre' category. I can understand being peeved if I had a music video being shot outside my apartment at 4am. But did Britney Spears really deserve to have buckets of urine thrown at her? ➡
    • Working for da man I vow never again to work for someone else's riches. I am independent being, free to grow rich or die poor using my mind and the thousand bucks I've got in the bank. I refuse to be a slave to the shirt-and-tie drones of Ford or any other Fortune 500 company, now and forever. ➡

    • Tattoos Is the reason I get pulled around by men when my tattoos are visible because they are shocked into defensive aggression by someone obviously not trying to meet their standards of attractiveness? After all, women are supposed to dress for men not for themselves. ➡
