I feel like I would be remiss if I didn’t note the newest actress on “The L Word”, Janina Gavankar, who plays Papi.

As I was misrepresenting this news story on Digg as a story about Colin Farrell (it turns out, the guy just looks like him), it came to me that this would be a cool way to manipulate Digg.
Say your site, and another site, were competing with the same content to get digged first/the most. [...]

Since I lost most of my traffic this week, having devote my blog to RedDot content, I felt the need to “get back on the horse” with a link to this year’s Sports Illustrated Swimsuit edition. This new model, Bar Refaeli, makes me feel all warm-and-fuzzy inside…and outside…uh oh…

Our gate just happens to be right beside the end of a moving sidewalk that seems to feel the need to tell EVERY SINGLE PERSON that rides the sidewalk, "Caution, moving walk is nearing and end. Please watch your step. Thank you" over and over and over and over… I think it’s giving [...]

Air Canada came through and set us up on another flight. We couldn’t get through to Air Canada on the phone, but when we picked up our tickets we were already confirmed on a later flight (and later, we got on an even earlier flight). Hurrah for Air Canada…well…if we end up getting home tonight [...]
