Habitual Scammer Auctioning Off Dinner
Date 12/03/2003 11:06 AM
A woman who apparently has left a long line of scams and crimes (including driving over her mother) in her wake, and who is wanted in many places, is apparently trying to auction off a dinner date on eBay at a "mystery location", where she claims she'd tell the stories of her various scams and crimes. eBay has taken the auction down, but not because of the nature of the auction, but because the woman also was trying to sell her own book separately within the same auction - and eBay frowns on you trying to offer two separate deals in a single auction. Of course, police say most of the "stories" you might hear from this woman are made up. You also have to wonder if the woman would ever actually show up. Among her many, many scams, she's been accused of selling stuff on eBay and not delivering the goods.

Dinner for One

Dinner for One 03/22/2005 04:40 PM

« A shrine to candle wax in the restaurant Kynsilaukka, the Finnish equivalent to the Stinking Rose. »

I've begun to notice that restaurants and just about any place that offers food and tables almost always have newspapers and magazines for their patrons. These are, I presume, for those who are alone and want something to read while eating instead of staring at the walls. Given that a large percentage of the population in Finland lives alone, it makes a certain amount of sense, but I still find it odd to gaze upon a sea of tables occupied by people trying to read and stuff their mouth at the same time, something I find quite difficult to do. I don't remember too many places in the US, other than diners or breakfast houses, that would offer newspapers for the patrons.

I always used to get take-away whenever I had no companion to dine with as I viewed restaurants as a place to be social and would feel very awkward were I alone. Sometimes I would take a book with me to a local pub where I would sit at the bar, order a beer and a burger, and read a little bit until someone would ask about the book or about work or whatever just to start a conversation. I suppose I admire the wherewithal it takes to take yourself out to eat, but there's something incredibly lonely about it, too. Finns likely don't even notice the silent ones in the corner munching away over the paper and even if they did they'd likely think they want to be left alone. I suppose they have to believe that.

Then I'll push back a few hours, I guess. Amusingly, the hotel room costs more than the flight does. Yeay! for cheap air fares on the SJC to JFK route. Anyway...

Dinner with Bill

Dinner with Bill 07/30/2004 11:52 AM

Jeff Maurone, an intern at Microsoft, shares his experience having dinner at Bill Gates' home.

Further and further you descend, past what seems to be an annex library, as it was certainly not the primary librarian that houses the Leicester Codex (Bill's original DaVinci notebook, for which he paid approx $30.8 million). Elegantly non-intrusive but screaming geekhood were sparsely placed digital canvases that, ever so often, changed the artwork on the wall. We passed the movie theatre, rumored to be the most advanced movie theatre in the world. Finally, we reached the bottom level of the entertaining portion of the home. To the left was a room with a design so powerful that it could only exist in the home of the richest man in the world.

After hearing about the security surrounding the house and the amount of work Bill does, it makes me appreciate the ability to sit on my back porch, eat a popsicle, and watch the sun set.

Dinner with Adam

Dinner with Adam 05/04/2004 03:42 AM

On my last night in Amsterdam for this trip, I had dinner with Adam Curry at a meat house that reminded me of a bar in Mazomanie, WI, many many years ago. We had meat and beer. So did everyone else.

It's really interesting walking around Amsterdam with Adam, who is a very famous person here. People stare at him. Ask for his autograph. I get some of the reflected glory, who is that guy with the rock star? It's a pretty unusual thing for me.

Anyway, we talked about next things to do. It was good to get some one-on-one time with Adam this trip. Now it's off the Schipol, the Amsterdam airport, to go back to Boston, and whatever adventures await me there.

Mark Frauenfelder: I had the pleasure of having hardware hacker Joe Grand come to my house for dinner last night. (He was in town to appear on G4 TechTV to talk about his new book, Game Console Hacking.) He showed me a bunch of his amazing electronic projects, which I'll be mentioning soon on Make's new blog.

Joe also told me about his cross country trip to relocate from Boston to San Diego, and he pointed me to his journal about the trip. It's a fun read, and I love this picture he took of a cool UFO house in Chattanooga, TN. Link

Spam for dinner

Spam for dinner 01/22/2004 03:02 AM

I'm at a dinner where we're talking about spam. There are high level execs from many of the companies involved in email. One person said that he thought we've seen the worst of spam and that it's getting better. It's too bad I can't quote people with attribution, because I think this is a totally unreasonable position.

We've now moved on to Internet governance and as usual, I haven't heard a single opinion that convinces me that email isn't broken and that it isn't just getting worse. We talked about pay to send, better filters, re-inventing smtp, regulations... all of the usual. Yet another fruitless discussion about spam. (yafudas). 17% of legitimate email is not delivered. 81% of people in a recent survey are afraid of false positives.
