I officially despise all the ‘free’ large-download filesharing places that torture you if you’re not a paying user. Dropbox ftw.

Some people I hung out with are hanging out with George & Barbara Bush today. I tried getting them to taunt about the Astros, but no luck.

Yep, fear of 666. Found in the wiki-rabbit-hole of List_of_unusual_personal_names, Brfxxccxxmnpcccclllmmnprxvclmnckssqlbb11116, Wolfe+585

New word learned today: hexakosioihexekontahexaphobia (If you parse that I bet you can figure it out without googling.)

My hard drive is making knocking sounds that very closely mimic the drum beat intro to Phil Collins’s “In The Air Tonight.”

I can’t believe they haven’t yet made a Hollywood movie of Red Dwarf yet. I was trying to imagine who might be cast as the cat.

.@joebonsall Think how much time & speech would be saved if airlines just made it so oxygen bags ALWAYS inflated when air was flowing.

Guess the film: “2 young siblings find themselves on the run from a dark organ..” twitpic.com/fv22p

favicon.icing: twitpic.com/ftn6t Yes, the bakery thought we were big weirdos, but they still made up frosting in 4 shades of blue.

Topic tonight: Pantone are evil idiots because they have dozens of yellows, but like 8 blues.

Ex-hausted. Post-parties is where I feel the oldest. And it’s not even midnight. Am I 80?

Remembering what shirt I wore at last year’s shirt.woot party tr.im/xre5 so I can pick what to wear this year. Thinking Sputnik.

Enjoying a last bit of lazy hanging around before the prep for tonight’s shirt.woot party at the City Museum begins.

Did any Indians anywhere ever say anything like “How” as a greeting? Where did that come from?

Watching Take Me Out to the Ball Game with 5’7” & 5’8” Sinatra & Kelly as all-star players, troubadors, ladies’ men (Eckstein & Miles?).

Late night debating: does “likely” have to mean a greater than 50% chance?

So very very tired of the Peabody ad fakeout. I hope this is paying for Holliday’s re-signing.

Strong evidence that Kiss Cam exposed an illicit affair tonight.

The front rows are stocked with cute kids. How I’m ever supposed to get a ball with that going on?

John Smoltz is getting a standing ovation on his way in from the bullpen. (via @dgoold) 1st time for a 5th starter? Very nice feeling.

The giveaway tonight is a hard plastic water bottle explicitly not ever allowed in the ballpark, presumably for fear of alcohol smuggling.

I’ve pre-ordered software online many times, not getting it till after everyone who goes to a store. But I keep doing it. #meFail

Laptop won’t connect to our WiFi. But iPhone will. & the laptop will tether with my phone. So everything’s working. This is a weird world.

Who pays $3,865 for jeans? Now $1,298, that’s reasonable. (I’d link to the sale so you could buy away, but it’s at Gilt Groupe.)

I predict PBS changes their mind & funds Reading Rainbow. I also predict an abstract statement relating to Twitter in their announcement.
