Link payback (Oct 30 2003 16:59 GMT) - Mike Lawson is quitting his day job to be a fulltime freelance newsie. He links to me so I'm returning the fave, and pointing to this swell quote on his blog: Did you hear that the Republican National Committee is changing their emblem from an elephant to a condom? The National Chairman of the Republican Party explained that the condom more clearly reflects the Party's stance today because a condom accepts inflation, halts production, destroys the next generation, protects a bunch of pricks and gives you a sense of security while you are actually being screwed.... |

Nine Stone Rig (Folklore by Rhiannon) (Oct 30 2003 16:59 GMT) - In the locality is Hermitage Castle, a building with a bloody and strange reputation. One of its early owners, Lord Soulis, was a murderer who dabbled in black magic and had an evil familiar called 'Redcap'. In the end the king and his neighbours had had enough of him and managed to roll him up in a sheet of lead. They took him to Nine Stone Rig and tipping him into a cauldron, melted him.

Apple's iCal has an unbelievably annoying, poorly thought-out system for handling timezone changes. Here's how it works: when you change the timezone of your system-clock, it adjusts all of your calendar items, so if you go from Pacific to Eastern time, you noon lunch appointment is "fixed" so that it shows up at 3PM -- the Eastern equivalent of 12PM Pacific. |

Sweet relief (Oct 30 2003 16:55 GMT) - I finally got some good freakin' news. My realtor's instincts were correct -- the first contractor was screwing us. The second guy she had out to the house this morning charged us $300, which my kick ass realtor haggled down to $150. Plus, she had the guy check out our nasty ass popcorn ceilings and he confirmed that they are not nearly 20 years old and so do not contain asbestos. Can you see me wiping my brow? |
