- This Will Disappoint Mom… I'm not _quite_ in to full-on 'DANGER skullet' territory, but I'm close, and with the added impetus of putting employment before vanity, it's probably only a matter of days or weeks (at the outside) before the curls go away. ➡

- George Carlin: Airline Announcements By the way, that little George Carlin moment in my previous post comes from one of my favorite of his routines from his 'Jammin' in New York' album, where he skewers the convoluted and bizarre language used by the airline industry. ➡

Bruce Schneier points out that this might not be a good idea… ➡
- LiveJournal voyeurism Entirely random and surprisingly addicting: LiveJournal Images, a page which displays the last 40 images posted to LiveJournal weblogs. So many pictures get posted so quickly that you can get an entirely new set every few seconds. Lots of kittens, anonymous people, celebrities, random wierdness, and the occasional NSFW image (be warned, just in case). ➡
