and spotted a woman below. He descended a bit more and shouted,
"Excuse me, can you help me? I promised a friend I would meet him
an hour ago, but I don't know where I am."
The woman below replied, "You're in a hot air balloon hovering
approximately 30 feet above the ground. You're between 40 and 41
degrees north latitude and between 59 and 60 degrees west longitude."

02/01/2005 09:44 PMPerhaps just now it’s unfashionable to grumble about patents, given
that
Sun and
IBM are showering
the world with bucketfuls of ’em (and a fine thing, too), but if you
want a loud, ugly, wake-up call, start at
VarChars, which is offered by
someone who apparently wishes to be known only as “rayg”. Samples:
IBM Receives Patent
for Using Regular Expressions to Extract Information from
Documents,
Google
Receives Patent for Highlighting of Search Results, and
Microsoft Attempts to
Patent Object Persistence. Read on for some predictably-negative
commentary and—gasp!—a look inside some incredibly-advanced Google
technology...

Dubya Photo Funnies
08/28/2004 01:39 PMWhat happened was, Lauren was away during the Democratic Convention,
and as a politics junkie, I wanted to watch some of it, so the kid
(just turned five) ended up watching a couple of the big speeches with
me. (All on webcast, our TV is a movie box, doesn’t get any
channels). He’s full of questions so I tried to explain, and as a
result the candidate is the only public figure in the world whose face
he knows, when we’re somewhere that there’s a TV showing news
he’s apt to pipe up “There’s John Kerry.” This is a little
embarrassing, especially considering he’s a Canadian. This morning I
was reading news and made some remark about George Bush and he asked
“who’s he?” so I tried to explain the big picture around the
election and I went looking for some Dubya pix to show him. So I went
to
the bio
page at the official Bush re-election site, and clicked on “View
George W. Bush Photo Gallery”... busted link, a peek inside the
source reveals
href="\News\PhotoAlbum.aspx"... if I were
mean-spirited I’d suggest that something about either being
Republican or using Windows makes you stupid, but seriously, have to
wonder about an organization that claims it can run America not being
clueful enough to use a link-checker. Back to our story... I went to
Google and looked for
pictures of
George Bush. This turns out to be a bad idea; the top-ranked
pictures are by and large, shall we say, not Republican-friendly.
Wanted posters, deranged-monster morphs, things that have just
got
ta be PhotoShopped. “Why are you laughing, Daddy?” said the
kid, and I couldn’t really explain. (PS: Lots of nice pictures of
George over at the White House site if you want ’em).

quite a few of my cycles, and has also generated a couple of amusing

10/28/2003 11:09 PMI officially declare this day: Happy Friday! It's your duty to be
thrilled about something in your life, and then put those feelings
into action. Pants optional. Me? I'm gonna carve a pumpkin, watch a
holiday movie, and then take the pumpkin to bed with me - in no
particular order. Oh, don't worry - I'll blow out the candle
beforehand. There will be absolutely NO funny business going on over
here, either. Unless the movie happens to be a comedy. Methinks I'm
out of candles, too. I wonder if glow sticks would work just as well?
That way, I won't have to worry about starting any unnecessary fires.

We're having great fun playing with Kate's new phone. It's got a

trial of iKTV television! I took some pictures of the screens and posted them on my

03/20/2003 05:31 PMFor some reason, MT isn't allowing me to update my last post, so if
you've got a mirror for my video, please add it via comment for "Mr.
American Pie." (which, if you're too lazy to figure out, is the post
that is sitting just below this one). If you post your mirrored URL in
the comments stream for THIS post (Freaky Friday), you will be dubbed
a retard for the rest of your life - and everyone will have my
permission to make fun of you with reckless abandon. I normally
wouldn't post something while I was prepping for a show, but this
morning has been quite eventful. I woke up to the sound of Gretchen
screaming: someone broke into our car, which was sitting directly in
front of our home. They made off with random CDs, a Belkin inverter, a
CB radio kit, and loose change. Bastard. I had to take a taxi to work.
Gretchen's spending all day (in theory) at a shoot! She got called
last night by her agency to be on some Japanese television show (its
name eludes me). The premise is something along the lines of
reinacting famous scenes. She's going to be part of the Versace
murder, I think. Killer!...

but the Shopping Sunday meeting, organized by my wife, is on
