GOP: fighting the war against socialized medicine.


After all, in America only poor people get sick. Thanks, Ray!

Blast from the past.


Beautiful calendar.

A nice detail about Tweetie for Mac.


If you try to close the window after you've typed your say, the dialog box offers "discard" as the default option. It assumes you don't want to bother to save a draft, which suits composing for the medium perfectly.

The Who visit the Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour.

And what a paradise it is. Be sure to hang out for the last two minutes.

Best handset ever.


Dust-proof and dirt cheap I think are the big selling points for the rest of the world. My old Nokia 6010 has been frozen solid twice, immersed twice, and it still works. Its SIM card is in my iPhone.

We can be together.

If you can imagine it you can have it.

Patenting pigs.


Big biotech is patenting pigs. Better than humans, I guess.

Bread before morals.


Why people become pirates. Brecht was right.

Wash me.

My favorite graffiti in Fairbanks.


What graffiti we have in this town is definitely scanty and subpar, so it's nice to see this at Campus Corner. Hope they keep it but get rid of the swastikas some knucklehead applied to this nice piece of work. iPhone pic.

Playing Fleet Foxes.

Because you liked it, Wat. We will miss you.

Pirate Bay court loss.


Nothing's changed here.

Tweetie for Mac.


A good way to start next week, coming Monday.

My bank, 2.30 a.m., downtown Fairbanks.

AliceX.


A new version of the only game Apple ever sold for the original Macintosh. Written for iPhone/iPod touch by Steve Capps, author of the Mac Finder.

Skirts.

Transmission.


Version 1.5.2 released. Best BitTorrent client for Mac and *nix.

Tesla Roadster: 241 miles on a single charge.


I'm a professional driver of a taxi cab: 625-1000 miles a week, with customers. I bet I couldn't get 90 miles out of this thing, "as it's intended to be driven." But I'd like one.

Goldfrapp - Clowns.

Live in Toronto, '08. For Don Cole.

White trash.


From the Fairbanks Daily News-Miner. Thanks for having the guts to print this along with the "sponsored advertising" and turkey dinner stuff. (Via Craig.)

Depression pizza.

Seeing more and more of these from different US brands. Leaner is meaner, right? Mobile post.

Depression wines.


Found this stuff on sale at Safeway for about $9 a bottle. The cab and merlot are surprisingly good if you let them rest in the glass for 15 minutes before imbibing. The screw cap is the best.

Status message.

The timing sure sucks.


We'll see how the Palm Pre plays out. I'm wondering how well the battery handles multi-tasking, and coming up against the 3.0 iPhone firmware/hardware... developers, developers, developers!

New Mac app selectively blocks the outside world.


SelfControl, by Eyebeam Labs' Steve Lambert. Comes with no documentation. I really want to install something that still controls the Mac after a restart, with no notes on what is installed where. Yuk yuk. But my biggest question is how hard is it to do this on your own? Imagine a world on its own for two hours without Twitter.

Gmail Autopilot.


Usually April Fool's Day is my least favorite day on the internet. Google's little joke here is pretty funny, though.

Kenneth Anger at PS1.
