Any explanation for massive airport crowds on Wednesday mornings? Insanity! Upgraded to business select to make the flight on time. Whew.
Learned: A weighted pendulum that takes 1 second to swing from end to end (regardless of how high you start it) will be a 1m long string.
When @waxpancake doesn’t update waxy.org links for two days, I wonder if maybe the Internet’s just over. You had a good run, Internet.
Imagine how excited mainstream media would be about Google Wave if Google spent the time & money to do it like Apple’s iPhone video demo.
An iPhone panorama I made from our seats at yesterday’s game: tr.im/nV86 (These’ll be even more fun with a nicer camera…10 days!)
I’m not sure why, but I really enjoy entry 2, definition 4 for “concern”: tr.im/nUP2 It’s very pleasantly retro.
Ok - Male: saint/st. Female:saint/ste. What? Are there other instances where gender changes abbreviation of otherwise identical words.
Discovered there’s 1 more window outside my house than inside. My kitchen used to have a large window! Dry-walled over (in the 80’s?). Why?!
Our wildflower garden is so easy and pretty, I highly recommend one. Our cat, Cricket, stops to smell the flowers: tr.im/nQq3
St Louis Paving Co. called, apologized for tar splatter, & said they’d cover cleaning, so that’s a relief. A big hassle, but not a disaster.
Currently hailing. I’ve got tickets to this afternoon’s game. This is making it pretty difficult to Be Prepared.
Discovered last night: Sam Peckinpah (yes, that 1) plays 4 parts in Invasion of the Bodysnatchers & he helped write the script for 2 weeks.
Let’s try group hypnosis with the Cardinals. I think if they all sincerely believed we were on a winning streak, they’d be playing better.
Car got sprayed with ~100 drops of tar today from a St. Louis Paving Co. truck. Tomorrow they will confirm that they’ll pay for the cleanup.
Nearly crashed driving back from the game down Kingshighway as massive fireworks go off at The Garden.
Heading to @theroyale shortly for some tunes spun by @__. I’ll see some of you there. It’s still MO. drinking week, right?
LaRussa / Twitter lawsuit settled for lawyer fees & “maybe something for ARF in there. It’s not going to be too ridiculous.” - Sounds good.
Resolved: As the only state with 4 Es (& only NJ has 3!) Tennessee’s abbreviation should change to TE. It’s not like TX should get it.
Congrats, Twitter, on figuring out you shouldn’t do planned maintenance during US business hours. Still, you should be doing this on Sunday.
Accidentally typed nhl in Google instead of going to NHL.com for tonight’s start time. Google listed it simply & cleanly. nhl.com is a mess.
So inbox 0 lasted almost 6 months. That’s not too bad. I’ll fight through as much as I can this month & then declare email bankruptcy again.
Hey @southwestair despite your site’s insistence, there ARE cities with periods in their name. I hate having to change to Saint every time.
