Can it really be described as a “chance” of showers when that chance is 100%? twitpic.com/30ojt2

Latest “I Am Old” thing: the football Cardinals quarterback grew up an Arizona Cardinals fan.

Annoyingly, streaming-only Netflix doesn’t have multiple-profiles for separate ratings, for no good reason. The helpdesk lady was mystified.

Rainy day got me to sign up for Netflix. And their new $7.99 streaming-only subscription. I had to open multiple browsers to get the offer.

Ever design a wine label? It’s great fun: “YOUR BOTTLERS STATEMENT MUST SAY ‘PRODUCED AND BOTTLED BY’, NOT ‘BOTTLED AND PRODUCED BY’.”

At what point did horror get pushed into the sci-fi/fantasy genre? It’s messing up all my recommendation engines.

I’m shocked there hasn’t been a new Benji movie. He could even talk. And be cgi. And shapeshift. And solve crimes.

I’m bummed we don’t get to see Steinbrenner fire his manager.

Movie remake idea: Peter Pan, told from the point of view of the killer croc.

I still hate saying “IM” & “IMing” & “IM’d”. I can’t believe it caught on without getting a more pronounceable & visual name.

Sure, we’re selling a tiny laptop with a tiny screen, but DON’T CALL IT A NETBOOK.

Not sure why it took 20+ years for Apple to realize people like a “Maximize” button & never understood “expand”, but I’ll take it.

When’s the Seattle-St. Louis bullet train arrive? I’m tired of traveling, but wishing I could visit pals. Facebook, you’re no teleportation.

It feels so appropriate to pay my Internet bill with my iPad. I’m going to try to pay my water bill with my toilet.

I’m always shocked seeing huge iPad sales #s. I never see it out, around. But then I realize most probably keep it at home on the couch.

I ended up buying Neuromancer on the Kindle, in part because it just seemed far too appropriate.

We told the airline we were vegetarian. They forced us to take a square of spinach instead of cheese tortellini offered to everyone else.

Ok, Europe, you’re on your own now, my vigilance shift is officially over.

New item on the honeymoon to-do list: be vigilant. Thanks, government!

Ooh, fun: US considering advising Americans in Europe to stay away from public areas.

The unexpected effect of keeping a St. Louis area code number in Washington is getting automated calls at 6:30am instead of 8:30.

Hmm…it seems like iTunes should probably mention somewhere that rented TV shows can’t currently be transferred to the iPad.

Million-dollar-idea: ziplock bags that look like TSA-approved quart bags, but that are actually 20% bigger.
