I didn’t get to watch and the suspense is killing me. Can someone *please* tell me what state the union is in? - lonelysandwich politicians are the last people that can tell you that, so you didn’t miss anything. that said: we’re all pretty sure that “hell in a handbasket” and/or “clusterfuck” is apt as description. the weakening dollar and fervent bombing...
yesterday was a successful day of photography.
The post by superdoofus-stratodrive is here. Nice post. Reminders are always handy… I long for manual focus. — butterflyeffect It is a good post, but this is wrong: oh yeah, and throw away your anti-shake crap: that stuff is for snapshot cameras, not photographers. It’s not necessary most of the time, but it can help you get a shot you might otherwise miss. Also, manual focus...
oh dammit, i can be a terrible roommate sometimes.
but those little white boxes in the fridge… man, if there were mousetraps on the big chunk of general tsao’s chicken or the bacon-sized slab of beef in the beef and broccoli, my fingerbones would be on their way to the hospital right now. the fried rice can turn into hard little pellets of stale for all i care though.

i...i am...i want to cry tears of joy
MIT has made the curriculum (lecture notes, assignments, exams, video lectures) of 1800 classes available for free to anyone. SOMEONE PINCH ME. and i just added a new toolbar bookmark, which is something i hardly ever do (i only had 5 up until now, but hell and high water if this is something unlike that which has never been seen before).
Watchbehind the scenes at work. playing baseball with a fake head and a machete. yes, i get paid to help chop people’s heads off.
poor rackspace, that star-crossed and doomed...
first a truck fucks up their flow, and now this. maybe it was their pie-in-the-eye reaching…yet if you promise something amazing at a really high price and can’t deliver it, you are welcome to die in the tall grass of your competitors. if nothing else, marco sure learned to code like fucking slim ninja. i just hope he doesn’t get lazy now that he may not attend fiscal attenuation...
