    • Almost Time for Norwescon! Once again, it's about time for my annual mini-vacation at Norwescon. This is my second year as part of the ConCom (Convention Committee -- those of us who are crazy enough to volunteer to assist with planning and running the con), and I've really been enjoying it. ➡

    • What’s your song? Go here, plug in your birthday, and it'll give you the #1 Billboard song for the day you were born. ➡

    • Off at Norwescon I'm spending the weekend at Norwescon, so I've _already_ missed my one-photo-a-day posting goal. Heh. No big surprise. Here's one from yesterday at the con, though... ➡

    • Friday cat Tribble blogging! 'Friday Cat Blogging' is a well-known, oft-derided, but much loved cliché in the weblogging community. I may not have a cat...but I do have a Tribble! ➡

    • Family coming closer Rock on — according to Dad, Kevin and Emily will be moving to Oregon in a bit, so that Emily can attend Oregon State University in Corvalis. My bro will be in fairly easy visiting distance again! ➡
    • Speak English, George! I'm so glad I didn't bother trying to watch Bush's national address the other night on television. I would have been so busy cringing at his first sentence — 'This has been tough weeks in that country.' — to even pay attention to the amazing hypnotic tie. ➡
    • Amazon’s A9 Interesting: Amazon just launched A9, a Google-based search engine, choosing to break the news via John Batelle's blog. ➡
    • Proof! Ryan found this using the LiveJournal Images script I linked to the other day…I think it's brilliant. ;) ➡
    • Ecto for Windows Earlier this week, Alex, Adrian Tjissling, and Joi Ito jointly announced that they have joined forces, and TypeWriter has now become Ecto for Windows. ➡

    • Pigface/My Life With the Thrill Kill Kult Just got back home from seeing Bile, Zeromancer, My Life With the Thrill Kill Kult and (last, but most definitely not least) Pigface at the Catwalk. Awesome show. ➡
    • US priorities in Iraq Iraqi buildings that have been looted, burned, and destroyed: the Ministry of Planning, the Ministry of Education, the Ministry of Irrigation, the Ministry of Trade, the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Ministry of Culture, the Ministry of Information, the Baghdad Archaeological Museum, the museum in the northern city of Mosul, and three hospitals. ➡
    • Philodemus Most of the scrolls uncovered so far have been written by first-century philosopher and poet Philodemus, leading to conjecture that the owner of the villa where the scrolls were found may have been trying to save Philodemus' work specifically — but there may be far more in the as-yet unearthed sections of the ruins. ➡

    • Mars and More Made it through Mission to Mars relatively unscathed, aside from the fact that it was a fairly amazingly hideous movie. I think if it had tried any harder to be 2001, it would have been truly laughable...as it is, it's just kinda sad. ➡
