In other news, evidently the head of Earthstation 5 has great big brass balls. Of course, he/she's in Palestine, out of the range of the FBI.
Check out the Manifesto.

Found an interesting website that somehow I have missed in my www travels.
The Jenville Show
Cooking with Indie Rockstars
Especially good is the bit with Jack Black (of the Greatest Band in the World)

A very odd idea, found on boingboing. A contest site which rewards bloggers for linking to it by giving away the prize to the winner AND to the blogger who the winner clicked through to get there. It uses the refer logs to see how people are getting to them. If the prizes were better, I might think about it.

Well, I finally purchased a bike yesterday. I've been looking at them for some time, trying to find something that wasn't as expensive as my first car AND would be better than the piece of crap Huffy I rode for a few years at my first master's institution. Found one on closeout at Performance Cycling yesterday, and my dad offered to go in for half with me…so I buckled and bought it. Hopefully this means that you'll see me tooling around campus on it this fall, instead of catching the bus.

While this will almost certainly be hit by the slashdot effect before anyone gets to see it, this is freaking hilarious.

Just back from an evening i
Just back from an evening in Winston-Salem at Ziggy's, seeing the Gin Blossoms in concert. After the opening band (Atheneum) played, it seemed to take 4 years for the Gin Blossoms to hit the stage, but when they did, it was good. The lead (Robin Wilson) was a bit smarmy (sample quote “We've been playing air-conditioned clubs all summer..this is _such_ a welcome relief”. Ziggy's is open to the outside, so it was like 103 degrees or something in there). But they did bring down the house with a lot of their older songs…they finished up the main set with Hey Jealousy, and the guitarists and drummer just ate it alive. Wonderful energy.
Two best things in life right now, on this Friday in August:
1. A peanut butter and marshmallow fluff sandwich on wheat bread
2. The new Jane's Addiction song and video (which I bet is making Jean's page refers real fun to read)

Well, after beginning the week in a funk, we're now moving into a weekend of fun. Tonight we're heading to Winston-Salem to see the Gin Blossoms (a group that I had given up ever getting to see, after the lead left to form his own group). Friday we're having dinner and games with some friends from the Romance Languages dept, and then Saturday is a trip to the mall to see Freddy vs. Jason in all it's bloody glory!
Too bad next week = get ready for school. It's sneaking up on me. Luckily, I am looking forward to it. Lots of good classes this semester.

For some reason, I'm really in a funk today. Thus, not so much on the blogging front. Hopefully it's just a “today” thing…and I didn't catch the monkey pox or whatever it is that Trish has.
But if I did, I'm blaming you, Trish!

Re: Making BoingBoing.
Re: Making BoingBoing.
I actually wrote in about the web store that I started in honor of the John Gilmore case, and tacked on the PDF as an afterthought. Curious that Cory chose the PDF as the interesting part. Does that say something about BoingBoing and attempts at commerce (although I clearly labeled both my post and the store itself that profits will be donated to the ACLU)? Or is the PDF just more amusing?
