Oooh! Soon I won’t have to be a-skulking around high-classed coffee bars and enlightened book merchants in order to stay connected. I’ll be able to have my Mac and eat it too! (Ow, sorry. That one even hurt me…)
If you haven’t already done so, head over to ThymeWise or The Gamer’s Nook and wish Kim luck on her surgery tomorrow.
There is no finer witch in New York than Kim!
Is there anything better than coming home (late) from work to the smell of fresh-baked bread?
Is there a finer example of a rhetorical question?
If I were a wee hobbit in the Shire (instead of an half-elf stuck in this godforsaken world), today would be Monday, the 19th day of the month of Rethe. And how do I know this? Well, the fine folk at The Shire-Reckoning tell me so! They came up with a scheme to reconcile the Julian calendar with the one described by J.R.R. Tolkein. That way, you can take any date on the Julian calendar and find out the corresponding Shire date.
What is more goose-pimply exciting, though, is that Su(zi)e the Divine has taken my little ramble about coming up with a script to generate the Shire date and turned it into reality. With the magic of PHP and Movable Type, you too can begin displaying the date in shire reckoning! I have already implemented it at the bottom of all my posts on the main index and the individual archives.
Ladies and gentlemen, there is no finer woman in England than Sue Bailey.
Watching Return to the Batcave. Too funny! Will update later…
In spite of my recent suspicions about the patriotism of its leader, I have to let you know that the Spork Posse™ has come away with big wins in the Bloggie Awards!
You’ve heard the warnings. You’ve seen the wanted poster. But how do you know the right level of terrah to feel?
Too much, and you’ll be selling all your stock in Bloogle early and miss the big pay out.
Too little, and you’ll have to beg Canadian geeks to listen to you… Oh. Wait. That’s just me. Um, well… it will be bad. Trust me.
Fortunately, the government of the blogosphere is watching out for you, so you don’t have to think. Unix Gal is up for the post of Director of Blogland Security (pending a vote of two-thirds of the Blog Senate). Once installed, her first act will be to explain the best way to color-coordinate your blog to the new warning system devised by the Princess.
Oh, and would it kill ya to blogroll me while you’re at it? Hmmm?
After extensive research, Robyn and I have uncovered a plot so cunning that you could put a tail on it and call it a weasel.
Why just delete spam when you can revel in its glorious stupidity? The lovely and talented skits has opened up a new blog called Annoyed as Hell to do just that. In it, various contributors will post the annoying forwarded emails, rumors, hoaxes, jokes and other timewasters that get sent to them – and trash hell out of them!
Yeah, it’s like shooting fish in a barrel, but if they let me play I promise to use exploding bullets.
Being a noob has its good points and its bad points.
On the down side, I am such a babe in the woods. No, not bear in the woods… though thanks for even pausing long enough on “babe” to consider and reject it… Where was I? Oh, yeah… babe in the big blue woods. Anyway, I don’t know who is who or what is what sometimes. I step into the middle of conflicts, or do silly things like promote Cuppa Tea as Solonor’s Aortal Site of the Week. I get the feeling that it’s kinda like saying, “OMG! Have you heard of this new band called the ‘Beetles’ (I think that’s how it’s spelled)? They rawk!”
