Random Thoughts

Amazingly, I only have to raise $477 more to participate in the 2005 Seattle Breast Cancer 3-Day Walk. I'm amazed and gratified.

Dracula, the blog. Someone is posting the various bits from Dracula as blog entries, on the dates that are indicated in the book. Start here and use the calendar in the sidebar to advance through the novel.

Mah Two Cents directs us to web comics.

See, and hear, what people see and hear out their windows around the world.

The Mystery of the Beeping House.

Why DRM is a bad business model. If it breaks every time you upgrade, what are the odds that you'll keep buying it?

Darth Tater Puns.

Drink 7Up and go to space.

A prequel to the prequels?

Open Office is better than MS Office. More proof. Like I need any. I switched over ages ago.

Voyager has almost left the solar system... You can even listen to it go.

Move over, Einstein, there's a new kid on the block. The Museum of Hoaxes chimes in about the article.

The New York Times is now reporting that detainees at Guantanamo Bay claimed that the Koran was flushed as early as 2002 ("Documents Say Detainees Cited Koran Abuse" May 26, 2005). And for anyone who thinks Newsweek retracted the statement about the Koran being flushed, they didn't... they retracted the information on their source, not the story itself. The Koran was abused, and only people who are completely out of touch with reality can deny it.
