And now for some crazy-hail. I don’t think Seattle has had this much hail in my entire my lifetime.
I would pay $100 for a case that didn’t totally adulterate the iPhone experience.
well, that case was wothless. Another $15 down the hole.
Trying to get your screen cover on your iPhone is like trying to do corrective vision surgery with a laser pointer and a steady hand.

Sometimes I wonder if some of my Twitter followers aren’t misinterpreting my name, expecting some firebrand Apple apologist.

I’ve been really agitated and restless tonight, and I can’t figure out why. I’m gonna apply to the Apple Store in the morning, though.
re: Future Weapons - Isn’t it kind of creepy how army guys talking about sniping *always* use the phrase “reach out and touch somebody”?
Wow, the Honda lawn care division must get a billionth of the ad budget the car division gets. The ad was just missing Vern Fonk.
IT’S TEH SN0ES!!1!1!!!
Thanks @dlanham for the consistently awesome desktops! Someday I’ll buy a print, I swear!
Now that was THUNDER
Hail in Everett says @ccgus. Wonder if we’ll get it down here. It’s raining. I think I’ll order some tea.
This American Life is getting me all fired up about abuse of executive branch powers.

though I hate Carlos Mencia, I enjoy the line from his Bud Light ad “We make sandwich - I am meat!”
This: http://urltea.com/31ft?budlight reminded me enough of this: http://urltea.com/31fu?SAUSAGES that I nearly spat out the wine.
Wait, that “Lil Bush” show is still on the air? Comedy Central should have learned from their last retarded Bush sitcom.
this here’s Joanna Newsom weather.
someone wanna tell that girl trucker hats were played out in 2004?
More snow in late march. I don’t think we’re in Seattle anymore, Toto.
Aw crap. The big cool green headphones I bought last month have been rebranded, added an iPhone mike, and are sold by Urban Outfitters.
Hand-tailoring cover letters and resumes. Mac Store tonight, Apple Store tomorrow.
And hey, it’s snowing.

I can’t believe I’ve been using OS X for 7 years (more if you count the public beta) I cringe when I use Classic nowadays, though.

Eh, another pointless excursion into the world of iPhone jailbreaks. It’s not really a “vibrant community” until there’s stuff worth using.
At risk of sounding like a shill, this hulu.com thing ain’t a bad deal.
Worrying about my memory. Want to go read “The Memory Palace of Matteo Ricci” again.
I’m always amazed by my abundance of cute little cousins
I propose the expression “God knows” be changed to “Google/Wikipedia knows”
Hemmingway’s 6 word story is the English language’s haiku. Twitter is Web 2.0’s (*cringe*) haiku.
waiting for the avalanche on I-90 to clear. There’s a 10 mile backup. I want to go home.

I wonder if Segways will ever stop being a physical punchline.
Jim Stanel! He’s that guy!
just saw a lady with 2 dogs in her lap, text messaging and smoking, all while driving. I’m glad I’m safe on the bus.
The nytimes.com Apple banner ad is pretty great.

Abstinence-only education is like saying the only way to save gas is by not driving your car.
My mind is blown! SYNERGY! The Slog links Daring Fireball on a Pharyngula story!
Segway: “it’ll get popular with the baby boomers as they get old because they’re too embarassed to roll a Rascal but they’ll need something”
Washington Republican state senators sound like they’re in a shambles. Its hilarious. Roach sounds like a psycho.
At Plymouth Poultry, buying ham. Go figure.

I just realized how “futuristic” it is that I’m watching a black presidential frontrunner give a speech over the Internet. It’s like 60s SF.
I’m like a chocoholic, only for news.
