    With impending rain, tonight's BBQ and fire is cancelled.

  • 40 Days On Facebook

    I've been playing with Facebook for the last 40 days or so, to see if it's any good. Here's some of the things I've observed that I like (and don't like) about it, followed by my conclusions:

  • Dan, Inspired By Hippies, Gets Out Balls

    Claire's dad and his wife visited us this long Easter weekend, and we took advantage of the stunning weather to do some of the usual touristy things that you only bother to do when friends or family come by - the cliff railway, the camera obscura, etc. - and so we ended up at the โ€ฆ

  • Best Conspiracy Theory Ever

    This has to be the best conspiracy theory I've ever read: this guy believes that the Galileo space probe that NASA crashed into Jupiter in 2003 (to avoid it being left in an unstable orbit and potentially crashing into Europa, which could affect the scientific value of the moon) is starting a nuclear reaction that โ€ฆ

  • Another Wonderful Troma Night

    Like last week, yesterday's Troma Night was another good old-fashioned long one. I'm amazed by the sudden splurge of Troma Night stamina that people have started exhibiting.
