Gizmodo is using this morning’s Steve Jobs letter to say “Looks like we were right.” I’m glad they’re making it clear we should ignore them.

Learned today: Mel Brooks produced The Elephant Man, cast his wife and chose David Lynch, but left off his name, lest it be seen as comedy.

Preparating for CES trip on Wednesday. Mentally, that is, I won’t pack till Tuesday night, probably.

CNN inspired me to get a St. Pete’s @theroyale. Also, I left my credit card there the other night.

Saw an ad on unplugging cell phone chargers since they use energy even when not charging. Sounds like a major manufacturing design flaw.

Well, now how am I going to tell all of you about this hilarious blog about you I just saw?

Very different experience shoe shopping at Nordstrom Chicago and Nordstrom St. Louis. I had to tie my own shoes!

Saturday mornings are my find-a-new-iPhone-game time. Today: lux dlx finally out. Slow, and a touch buggy, but greatly expanded and fun.

My mind is very confused that it’s the weekend again, but my body says thanks.

Of people who use AIM, who enjoys getting the aolsystemmsg about multiple logins? Is it really, truly, useful to anyone I hate hate hate it.

Thing I just learned: The moon is 30 earth-diameters away from the Earth. I’d have guessed more like 8-10.

I wonder how many Twitter users don’t know that you only see / get @ replies from people you don’t follow in the Replies tab. Bet it’s most.

Greatly enjoying game 5 of the 1956 world series on MLB network. Funny to watch fuzzy black and white (sub-)standard def on my fancy hdtv.

I love a day where there’s no need or desire to put shoes on, or even change out of pajamas.

I thought we had a prime, but happy 287 x 7!

Ugh, the one day I discuss avalanches here one shows up and kills eight people. NO ONE DISCUSS SNOWCANOS.

#zune “We have identified the issue with the Zune 30 and have a full explanation and guidance located here.” Note they no longer say “fix.”

“By tomorrow … allow the battery to fully run out of power … then simply ensure that your device is recharged, then turn it back on.”

Zune page status update: “Customers using the Zune 30 might experience problems starting their players.” They just reworded it, nothing new.

Another term coined today: snowvalanche! It’s like an avalanche, but with snow. (thanks @__)

The Zune status page updated, but only to add “The Zune Social might be slow or inaccessible.”

Well, now that I actually grew to like Aaron Miles, he goes to the Cubs. Figures.

Vote: A. Zunepocalypse, B1. Zunemageddon / B2. Zuneageddon, C. Zunedemic, D. Zunetastrophe, E. Write-in

One co-worker affected by Zunepocalypse ‘08 (which term I think I just coined). less than 5 seconds ago

Very pleasant and expressive to hear the occasional physical page turn in a symphonic recording. (Quintent in E-Flat Major, ~7m5s)
