So he was Deep Throat 0 cmts

So he was Deep Throat – It was a long-running mystery, a legend. Sort of like the Red Sox never winning the World Series. And now both of those stories are gone. Have we no nostalgia left?

Photos 0 cmts

Now in my Flickr photostream: Senior Week, Commencement, and my first new friend in Cambridge! Check them out (and click through the photostream to see them all).

Cookies 0 cmts

I had a craving tonight for chocolate chip cookies (this desert habit is becoming unhealthy! ;) ) so I went out in search of them. The convenience store up the block does not carry cookie dough (and the man was very confused about what the heck I was talking about) so my hopes were dashed. But as I crossed the street to head home I realized there is a second convenience store right across the street, so I checked there, and sure enough, cookie dough was to be had at $4 a tube. But it’s worth it! :-P

“We Didn’t Start The Fire” with images! 0 cmts

“We Didn’t Start The Fire” with images! – So cool! In eighth grade social studies we were each given a line from the song and had to figure out (and explain to the class) what historical event he was referring to. Neat assignment. At this point I probably know about half of ‘em, I really should know them all.

Windows rapidly approaching desktop usability 0 cmts

Windows rapidly approaching desktop usability – Maybe with the new “Longhorn” version it will finally work as well as Linux!

Another perspective on Everything Bad is Good for You 0 cmts

Another perspective on Everything Bad is Good for You – He calls Johnson a shill for big media and says they are only teaching us to think certain ways within specific bounds. I’m not sure why he thinks that TV is going to eliminate the book, though. Accept new media as a complement to old and his points are a lot less valid.
