    • Disneyland Memorial Orgy It was one of the most notorious images on the 'net when I first got online back in '91, one passed around in various low-resolution copies, found here and there in various directories of 'naughty' images -- a black-and-white drawing of many of the classic Disney characters involved in a mass orgy.

    • Why I won’t be upgrading to MT 3.0 This should come as no surprise to anyone who's been following today's firestorm, but it all boils down to this: it's too expensive.
    • Mojo needed I'm not going to link to her out of respect for her privacy, but a good friend of mine could really use some good mojo and wishes sent her way right now.
    • MovableType 3.0: Ouch So SixApart revealed the pricing structure for MovableType 3.0 today. One word. Ouch.
    • Should’ve bought a new printer So now I've blown $70 on ink, and if I actually want to print anything at home, I need to buy a new printer. I really should have skipped the whole buying ink stage, and just treated it as a 'disposable.'

    • Kevin's back! My little brother Kevin, who's been visiting his fiancee Emily in Africa for the past four months (she's finishing up a 2-year stint in the Peace Corps) got home recently. When he left, he had dreadlocks down to his butt — but since he shaved them off at some point during the trip, dad was kind enough to post a picture of the 'new look'!

    • Got 5 minutes to kill? For me, the Holy Grail of Star Wars toys was the AT-AT. Kevin and I didn't have one. The Burns kids did. I can't entirely vouch for Kevin, but I can definitely say that I was jealous.
