Mmmm, I like these: Baladeo 22g and 34g Knives, on Cool Tools. I’m looking for a lightweight carrying knife (I agree with the poster, my original Leatherman is awesome but as heavy as an anvil) and these look very promising.
Just the Simple Truth: This is pure awesome. Now, what the POTUS needs to do is start beating this fucking drum OVER AND OVER AGAIN.
Hmm. Depending on the weather and our schedule, I’m going to see if we can check out the Baltimore Kinetic Sculpture Race this year.
How To Steal Like An Artist (And 9 Other Things Nobody Told Me). Awesome, awesome, awesome. Inspiring.
File this under I’ll get to it at some point: Stream Your iTunes Library To your iPhone Over The Web. Eventually, when the new room is done and we upgrade our ancient TV to a modern model, I’m going to set the home server up as a combination file/AV server, and it will be able to stream music and movies. Or, I’ll spring for a $100 MacTV and have that handle all the work (as well as stream on demand from Netflix).
As if I needed another reason to dump my current cell carrier: AT&T to Buy T-Mobile, Becomes No. 1 U.S. Wireless Company. I doubt, if this deal actually passes regulatory scrutiny, that it will make anything better for AT&T subscribers.
USA Shopping Malls, Summer 1990. Pure nostalgia.
Fuck the Republicans: The House of Representatives votes to defund NPR. The more I think about it, the more I begin to feel like a paranoid and believe there’s a plot to dismantle all non-Fox related news sources.
I stumbled on this by accident earlier today, and it’s been interesting listening: Eric Avery (of Jane’s Addiction) talks about the reunion and subsequent dissolution of the band last year. I get a personable, honest vibe from Avery, so I’m inclined to believe him: sounds like Perry is still pretty much a dick.
In related news, it was sad to hear about the bassist from Alice In Chains this morning.
This is some awesome reporting, done by someone other than a mainstream reporter: 20 lies (and counting) told by Gov. Walker.
Walker: His bill is about fixing a budget crisis.
The truth: Even Fox News’ Shepherd Smith couldn’t swallow that one, declaring that it’s all about politics and union busting, and “to pretend that this is about a fiscal crisis in the state of Wisconsin is malarkey.”
