*snickers*

Just go read it. 'tis funny, and languagey, and political, all in one!

Just an update.

When I say "I have to go to bed", this is occasionally because I actually have to go to bed. I have to get up most mornings - in fact, every morning. When I start talking around midnight, please don't be surprised when I have to go an hour or so later. I really can't live on three hours of sleep a night.

Apparently 'dul can. Lucky bastard. Remind me, I need to boobytrap his house next time I babysit.

A few Buzzflash articles...

ONe editorial on oil and Bush and social security.
One on the previous presidential election in the US.
One on freedom of the press.
One on corruption in Iraq.
And one on the Air Force Academy (again!)

And now the FDA wants to use the same asinine rules for sperm donation as for blood donation

Instead of testing donors to make sure they're not sick, they'd rather just exclude a huge swath of the population from donating.

Brilliant plan, guys. Really.

An article on tagging

Here.

Another drawback lacks an easy solution, though. Once tagging takes off, marketers are bound to add irrelevant tags to hijack you to the latest Viagra ad.

Warns Danny Sullivan, editor of the online newsletter Search Engine Watch: "The noise and deliberate manipulation will probably just bring the system into a crashing halt."

Couldn't there be some sort of rating system? Visitors to a tagged site could rate it on a scale of how appropriate it was, or how useful, or whatever. Not that I know anything about this, of course.

A scary set of articles from xydexx

I am not happy.

Bad enough to be a hypocrite...

But to be caught like this? That's gotta suck.

They're purging journals soon.

Assuming Brad isn't a liar, that is.

You know what that means! Start hoarding rename tokens, you can soon claim one of those "deleted in 30 days... really... we promise!" names!

(Note, you can NOT create an account with a purged username.)

Taken from moggymania

This is seriously cool. I can't describe it, just go click and view.

*stretches*

After using Wikipedia for several years, I've decided to take my first, tentative steps into editing it.

I want to add some VM stuff, where appropriate. Now, I know we know a lot about Duncan, but... I can't remember where we found it all out! And I may miss crucial information.

So, can people remind me:

1. Where we found out he's epileptic
2. Where we found out he's been on/off drugs for depression for however long it's been
3. Where we found out he may be Veronica's brother (for the first time, we know now that he thinks he is her brother)
4. Anything else relevant? Birthday, whatever?

Amabo te!

_{Well, I don't have anything else to do today. And I did clean some.}
