Cite your site!
Fritz and Venemous Kate have both posted statements on citing sources when updating blog entries. I really have no idea what all the fuss is about…I guess some people get off on plagiarizing popular stories, passing them off as their own and trying to stake claim to being the first one on a scoop. Personally, […]
Decal residuum…
Why is it that companies insist on slathering their products in non-removable paper decals that leave a disagreeable residue behind? This evening I helped Kelly assemble her Fluval 404 for the new fish tank and it was covered in warning decals that were impossible to remove! Warranty decals. Price labels. Copyright labels.

Is a six mile traffic jam worth a quarter?
In the woods of Pennsylvania there is a route commonly known as 209. Every once in a while, this route mysteriously splits into 209 and 209 business to separate the local traffic from the through traffic. And, at each of these forks, is usually a traffic light that creates a fairly long pileup as drivers […]
Now supporting VoiceMonkey audio entries.
While GeoBlogging last night I ran across a post about the VoiceMonkey service for adding audioblogs to your Web site using a phone!
