Today would have been the 113th birthday of Ernest Hemingway, born in Oak Park, Illinois. He started his writing life as a journalist, but when he was in Paris after World War I, working as a foreign correspondent for the Toronto Star, he was encouraged to take a more literary turn by other American writers […]

“When I see a guy alone at a café without a device open, I assume that he’s either got the iPhone antenna problem or that he’s a serial killer … I’m almost never alone with my thoughts anymore.” (from Blogging from the Shower, by Dave Pell) I really love these vintage social media advertisements. Sterling […]

Four agencies that specialize in Internet marketing — 10e20, Search and Social, Infinitenine, and Brent Csutoras Inc. — are joining forces in a roll-up to form BlueGlass Interactive. Why, yes, I do very much want a lightsaber. “It’s sort of nonsensical for a twice-divorced single mother of two to be using this line as seduction.” […]

I’d like to see these foods do battle in some sort of Clogged Arteries Marathon: Deep Fried Butter and Krispy Kreme Cheeseburgers vs. KFC’s new Bacon and Cheese Wrapped in Fried Chicken Breasts sandwich Did you think the Super Bowl ads were too sexist?

General Stuff President Obama was recently interviewed about his policies regarding education by a very good reporter. He loves mangoes. Anil writes about another good reason to like the Obama administration. It’s been more than four months since Merlin has posted a new 5ive. Where could he be?! A new study suggests that the amount […]
WordPress Wednesday: Safe Function Calls July 8th, 2009 @ 5:45 am PDT
If you’re editing a WordPress theme template file by adding a call to a plugin’s function, you need to be careful. In six months or a year you’re going to deactivate or delete that plugin, and you’re going to get a big ugly fatal PHP error on your blog. You can avoid it, though, by […]

I was all fired up last night about “clean coal” after watching Palin’s speech at the RNC. Obama also talked about “clean coal” in his speech last week, and it seriously bothered me. There is no such thing as “clean coal”, kids. But nobody that listened to the two nominees is talking about that. What […]

Levenger Gotham Pen Refill January 16th, 2007 @ 10:03 am PST
About a decade ago I bought a Gotham model pen from Levenger. It is by far my favorite pen. This weekend I found it in the cigar box I use to hold all my “best” pens and was quite disappointed to discover that its ink had run dry. Levenger no longer makes this fabulous pen […]
