As before, it's just a dump of the most recent items I've added to my del.icio.us account, so feel free to add that RSS feed to your reader if you like. <a href=\"https:\/\/michaelhans.com\/eclecticism\/2005\/07\/18\/eclinkticism-returns\/\">&#x27A1;<\/a><\/span><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/michaelhans.com\/eclecticism\/2005\/07\/18\/bagnpipe-hoppers\/\">Bag&#8217;n&#8217;Pipe Hoppers<\/a> <span class=\"today_excerpt\">One of the local street performers I enjoy running into is the Bag'n'Pipe Hoppers. Actually two performers who team up together from time to time -- Don P. Scobie on bagpipes and Jesse Bishop (or Bishnutz) on drums -- their combination of traditional Scottish piping and modern hip-hop beats is always fun to stumble across. <a href=\"https:\/\/michaelhans.com\/eclecticism\/2005\/07\/18\/bagnpipe-hoppers\/\">&#x27A1;<\/a><\/span><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/michaelhans.com\/eclecticism\/2005\/07\/18\/acid-bath\/\">Acid bath<\/a> <span class=\"today_excerpt\">...somewhere, in the back of my brain, I'd decided that it wasn't really water, but streams of acid running down the street that would eat through the bottom of my shoes and into my feet if I accidentally stepped into one. <a href=\"https:\/\/michaelhans.com\/eclecticism\/2005\/07\/18\/acid-bath\/\">&#x27A1;<\/a><\/span><\/li><\/ul><\/li><li><strong>2004<\/strong><ul><li><a href=\"https:\/\/michaelhans.com\/eclecticism\/2004\/07\/18\/the-new-york-times-posts-a-mea-culpa\/\">The New York Times posts a Mea Culpa<\/a> <span class=\"today_excerpt\">It's always nice to see one of the 'big boys' admit that maybe, just maybe, they could have dug a little deeper into the goings-on in the months before we invaded Iraq. <a href=\"https:\/\/michaelhans.com\/eclecticism\/2004\/07\/18\/the-new-york-times-posts-a-mea-culpa\/\">&#x27A1;<\/a><\/span><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/michaelhans.com\/eclecticism\/2004\/07\/18\/pictures-of-noah\/\">Pictures of Noah<\/a> <span class=\"today_excerpt\">Kevin just sent me pictures of Noah! At this point, I'm required to do the 'proud uncle' thing and display them to the world. You, of course, are required to expound upon how beautiful and perfect he is, even though at this stage, all children pretty much look like Winston Churchill. ;) <a href=\"https:\/\/michaelhans.com\/eclecticism\/2004\/07\/18\/pictures-of-noah\/\">&#x27A1;<\/a><\/span><\/li><\/ul><\/li><li><strong>2003<\/strong><ul><li><a href=\"https:\/\/michaelhans.com\/eclecticism\/2003\/07\/18\/alaska-jack\/\">Alaska Jack<\/a> <span class=\"today_excerpt\">Concurrently with today's announcement that Alaska Airlines has contracted with Jack Nicholson to act as spokesperson for the airline in all of their television and print advertising in 2004, the airline also revealed an upgrade to the traditional and distinctive Alaska Native image on the tail of their jets. <a href=\"https:\/\/michaelhans.com\/eclecticism\/2003\/07\/18\/alaska-jack\/\">&#x27A1;<\/a><\/span><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/michaelhans.com\/eclecticism\/2003\/07\/18\/hoaxing-bambi\/\">Hoaxing Bambi<\/a> <span class=\"today_excerpt\">The jury's still out on this one, but I'd be willing to bet that the Hunting for Bambi 'business' (in which men dress up in camo, grab paintball guns, and go running through the woods 'hunting' naked women) is nothing more than an elaborate spoof. <a href=\"https:\/\/michaelhans.com\/eclecticism\/2003\/07\/18\/hoaxing-bambi\/\">&#x27A1;<\/a><\/span><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/michaelhans.com\/eclecticism\/2003\/07\/18\/9-11-quiz\/\">9-11 Quiz<\/a> <span class=\"today_excerpt\">How much do you remember about the events surrounding Sept. 11th, 2001? <a href=\"https:\/\/michaelhans.com\/eclecticism\/2003\/07\/18\/9-11-quiz\/\">&#x27A1;<\/a><\/span><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/michaelhans.com\/eclecticism\/2003\/07\/18\/need-help\/\">Need help?<\/a> <span class=\"today_excerpt\">Got a question?
