New fact I learned on this last trip: “The La Brea Tar Pits” translates to “The The Tar Tar Pits”

Going to the Cardinals game tomorrow (in LA). MLB Ballpark #7! #

Why don’t college women’s softball teams wear caps?

Holy crap, The Jeffersons are on iTunes! I need a bigger iPhone.

OH: The New York Times from 100 years ago looked amazingly like Craigslist does today.

It feels so amazing when you go from acceptance that you’ve lost something forever, to thinking of one last place and finding it.

New favorite single-serving domain: www.thingsididlastnight.com

Why can’t there be amusement park maps not done in a cartoon, caricatured style? (I want an easy to read, accurate Disneyland map!)

La Tropicana “imported specialty foods” semi parked outside my front window is making me hungry and messing up my wine photos.

American Airlines charging $15 for checked baggage…The overhead compartments are just about to get a lot more crowded.

Twitter is less “What are you doing?” and more “What are you thinking?” now. We’ve become a world of Jack Handys, sharing our Deep Thoughts.

I find, when you try Twitter multiple choice polls, the vast majority of responses don’t pick one of your choices.

Perhaps a sign the Cardinals still have alco-issues: Pitcher Flores on the San Diego explosion: “It sounded like somebody dropped a keg.”

My Wii Fit is on its way! Sadly, my TV languishes for its 6th week in the repair shop.

Why can you say “at night” but not “at day”?

Wikipedia added “In 2008, this service was renamed Yahoo! Babelfish.” 6 days ago, so I guess that’s my answer.

WHOA. Babelfish is Yahoo! now. When did that happen!?

Finding exciting, fun reasons to get much better at SQL.

Another week, another attempt to start on things I was supposed to have finished last week.

I assume there’s no way to know if any of my Tweets have been favorited…Unless I make the FAVRD list, of course.

[cleaning day] Enjoying the new streaming radio iPhone options (flytunes.fm). Could previously only get WFMU, as far as I know.

Already sick of cleaning up the house, and I haven’t even started.

I’m going to LA next week for the 1st time. Must-see/-do stuff? I’ll be braving Disneyland & the Dodgers/Cards game, but have 2 more days.

Preparing for a picnic, hoping the potential of rain scares away all the competitors while leaving the grass dry for our blanket.

1st thought: Too bad a cool idea (release your music video with greenscreen) was wasted on a hokey song (White & Nerdy). 2nd: It’s perfect.
