Live now. More content in days to come.

I'm interested if anyone else knows of services like these. Cori and I are fairly progressive consumers, and we're willing to take on some time-consuming burdens if it means we can save money. I'm interested if there are services like this that are sprouting up that I don't know about.

Redfin. This is a real-estate site that reduces overhead and ( Read more... )

We brew tomorrow. We have "geekbeer" on twitter. We set up geek-beer.com fairly soon (like, maybe tomorrow -- wordpress template is done). Mr. Tea ordered a Flip Mino that will serve him well, and will give us something to record a vidcast with. He's got a pretty sexy mic, too, for the same purpose. We have geekbeer08@gmail.com ( Read more... )

Fascinating. Economist on planet money just said, about stimulus packages, that he was concerned that the government was deciding where this money goes, rather than "us" deciding.

Is it just me, or does this seem backward? The government is, in my eyes, way more "us" than the giant corporations that dot the modern economy.

I know, this seems a little alarmist, but... it's kind of scary. This post is about religion, but that's not the part I'm concerned with. The part I'm concerned with is the stretching of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act to include End User License Agreements (EULA) under its umbrella.

Wow.

edit: Here's out wedding colors.

It's no secret that I like pies. You might call me a pie fan. Or a pie guy. I'm a firm believer that it's always high time for pie time. And that pie time's not just my time, it's fine time. The right pie might reach sky heights, with bright white highlights and slight fire-fruit spice.

In any case, I think the Joy of Cooking got pies right:A ( Read more... )

Looks pretty Burton-esque to me.

I saw a new hand guy today. William Ericson. After I explained my symptoms, he seemed immediately confident that he knew what was wrong. He gave me a diagnosis. It's was listed on the prescription form as "Ericson Syndrome." Like, named after him because he put the pieces together. It explains all my symptoms. It's treatable without surgery.
