I still owe a decent summation of my observations from the road, but those will have to wait. Instead, I think I’ll reach for a borrowed meme from back in April. Maybe I’ll start a new one here. When I was driving home from the aforementioned roadtrip, a poet was on local public radio. As …
I have quite a few things to say about Interstates 75, 24 and 65, as well as some observations about Chattanooga, Nashville and Louisville. But for now, I’ll just let you peruse a selection of photos from a particularly fantastic stop along our way. Behold, the ZippyMarket.
… after I paid off the mortgage, bought a new car or two and refloored the entire house, I’d have to get me one of these: I’d need a second iPod too, but all such things are easily within reach for the man who holds a bag o’ cash. (Link Found @ BoingBoing) In other …
(As of 07/23/2005, this post can be found over at JIVE.) It’s a tale of two sets of idiots, really. The premier idiot of the first flock of idiots — let’s call him King Idiot — is the chucklehead game developer at Rockstar who actually coded the now-infamous Hot Coffee minigame into the core content …

I’ve been posting elsewhere. Two short music reviews (Sinead O’Connor & Motown Remixed) for JIVE. A not-at-all-clique-y restaurant review on Metroblogging Atlanta. A new set of auto part mystery photos on Flickr. Those last two items are more connected than they might appear.
Another Thursday morning. Another day after Wednesday. Another recap of four rounds of blogger-fied trivia at the Mellow Mushroom of Lower Buckhead / Upper Midtown. But this time was different. It wasn’t the rain. Sunday’s “One Year Anniversary” game had far more precipitation. And it wasn’t the humidity. We’ve gotten used to the tropic haze …
Discovery (under the command of Eileen Collins) is scheduled to lift off from NASA’s Kennedy Space Center, Launch Pad 39B, on Wednesday, July 13 at 3:51 p.m. EDT.* So if you could spare a moment or two of positive thinking, a crossed pair of fingers or maybe even a little prayer around that time, a …
Football 2 Originally uploaded by Petromyzon. I wasted so much quality time on a contraption just like this. Using little red LEDs, it was a remarkably engaging simulation of professional football. Your team was red. Your quarterback was bright red. The ball was red … and blinking. And every touchdown was announced with this tinny …
Underground & Bus Blasts Originally uploaded by beckster. Until I knew better, I was in a low-grade panic. I called my brother’s office. I emailed. Then my mom called with good news.
