    • Re-Meme (‘Michael is…’) There's a meme going around the 'net right now where you do a Google search for '$yourname is' and pick the best ten results to post. Rather than join in, I'll just point you to the post where I did this two and a quarter years ago. :) ➡
    • Live Octopus Tentacle Okay, admittedly, I'm no fan of seafood -- generally, I tend to limit my meat-eating to animals with legs that stay on land most of the time. However, even if I were more into seafood than I am, I still think that I'd be _far_ too squicked out to try eating a dish of live octopus tentacles. ➡
    • The DJ Test Rebecca just got a job as a professional DJ for AMS Entertainment, and in her post celebrating her successful certification, mentioned that she'd had to take a test to get the job. This struck my sense of humor, and has prompted the following exchange... ➡
    • Interestingness I'm probably one of the last people to actually make mention of this, but the big news in the Flickrverse over the past few days has been the introduction of two new features: tag clusters and 'interestingness'. ➡

    • PvP takes on the comic syndicates The author of PvP, a webcomic that I really don't read often enough, has decided that the newspaper comic syndication racket isn't for him. So, instead of giving up all the rights to his strip, he's going to investigate syndicating it himself for free. ➡
    • One of these things is not like the others… I love seeing things like this. From today's iTMS 'new releases' e-mail from Apple… ➡
    • Word of the Day: Psycophant Psychophant — A person suffering from a mental disorder in which contact with reality is lost or highly distorted, and which is characterized by unembarrassed fawning over the current administration and its lackeys. ➡
    • Do-be-do-be-do me This was going to go into the linklog, but it's so wonderfully bizarre that I figured it deserved a little more visibility: Debbie Does Dallas — The Musical! ➡
    • The City Sleeps So, the big news of the moment is that we appear to have an arsonist running around Seattle. Thirteen fires in the North Seattle area over the past three days, the majority of which have been definitely determined to be arson, and now there's a reward being offered of up to $30,000 for information leading to an arrest. ➡
    • Kerry and Bush: Achievements Lately, Bush's line of attack has been that Kerry just hasn't done that much during his time in the Senate — a charge that, unfortunately, is being blindly accepted and parroted until it's accepted as 'truth'. I had a conversation with a gentleman yesterday during my lunch break where he delighted in pointing out Kerry's supposed lack of real experience. ➡

    • Hit the showers, Harry! Of course, now I'm going to start showing up in searches for all sorts of disturbing Harry Potter slash fanfic. Joy. ➡
    • This weekend… ...had a great weekend out running around in the sun. Spent Saturday with Prairie and her sisters H and K, and Sunday Prairie and I went out to the Woodland Park Zoo. ➡
