But I just totally almost missed my plane because I was hanging out in the bar.
Oops!
Yay! Top Pot donuts, I’ve missed you…
I'm not 'that girl' very often...
Twitter: The Criterion Collection
What if Twitter… came to life?
We asked some of our friends to film their favorite tweets. We didn’t care how they did it. They could read it. They could act it. They could do it with puppets. Whatever they wanted. The only rules were it had to be a tweet written by someone else and it had to contain the entire tweet and nothing but the tweet.
This is what they gave us.
We hope you enjoy it.
Also: painstakingly edited by @sween. (I believe his Canadian-ness may have prevented him from adding that.)
AMA-ZA-ZING!
So. Awesome.
Ahhhhhh!!!!!!
There are a lot of people standing between me and the beer I am hoping to have before my flight.
We Live In Public finally comes out on DVD today. I cannot express enough how much ass this documentary kicks. I consider myself a pretty versed in internet history/culture/ and all around web fuckery, but the stuff I saw in this movie just made my head spin. I guess I had no idea what was really going on. Most of the action the takes place over ten years ago, in a time when we were just beginning to figure out what it means to live our lives online, in view of thousands of people on our blogs or webcams. This doc is a cautionary tale about the loss of privacy, about what it means to put too much of your life online, about how going too far too fast can sometimes be too much. The most frightening thing about all these tales - and this documentary is just one of many - is that in ten years time we really haven’t learned anything about the perils of over-sharing, and more hilariously, we just don’t care.
One of the best documentaries I’ve seen in a very long time.
I was lucky to be able to see this last year, when it screened at the Seattle Int’l. Film Festival. I had no idea this was all going on either. It took me completely by surprise that this had been happening, long before the over-sharing that happens now. But the best part of this? Josh Harris, who was often called ‘Warhol of the Web’ was there that night, and came out after the film ended, to answer questions. If you watch this film, or have already seen it, you’ll know why the entire audience was so shocked to see him. Was an amazing night.
I think I need to see this.

I’m so being punished for trying to get my work done early this week!! ARGH!
You see, I’m going to Seattle in the morning for a little visit - and the LAST thing I want to do is take a stupid accounting test while I’m there. Sigh. I guess I get to get up super early tomorrow to take the test. Fun!
According to one NASA scientist, the magnitude 8.8 earthquake in Chile caused "the length of the day (to be shortened) by 1.26 microseconds" and that "the axis about which the Earth’s mass is balanced should have moved by 2.7 milliarcseconds [about 8 centimeters or 3 inches].”
In addition, nearby islands may have been raised as much as two feet.
Amazing.
Here’s the original Bloomberg article, which first reported this story.
Wow!!!
The great grocery smackdown
Can Walmart really go up against Whole Foods? Long the bane of enlightened consumers, Walmart has been experimenting with local and organic meats and produce. The Atlantic decided to see how they fared against Whole Foods and the results are pretty interesting.
This is really fascinating, even if it is a little painful!
Really Elmo? A cheese pizza is healthy? And what’s with the 70% organic stuff?
Moltz: About the dog
- The voice we use when we’re pretending to be him talking is that of Pterry from Pee-Wee’s Playhouse. I can’t remember which dog I started that with, but to me all dogs have had that voice since the late ’80s.
- When Hank is not around, his speech becomes profanity-laden. E.g. “If someone doesn’t…
My dog sounds like Napoleon Dynamite.
LOL. Remind me never to say anything about universal healthcare on Facebook. LOL.
My dad’s ultra-conservative relatives WILL comment.
I had the same problem with my family and friends from high school…lesson learned. The hard way.
Ice cream!!!
