There is a dual joy in having kittens. Part of it is that they can be so darn cute, and the other part is that they can be so darn stupid.

Overheard at Lunch
A couple of days ago, I was eating lunch and overheard what has to be the stupidest thing I've heard someone say in a long time.
Now, just take a moment and digest the content of that proclamation. From such a short sentence, one can deduce that this person has been a smoker in the past and had taken the steps necessary to kick the habit. Then, after a period of not being stinky, this person had carefully weighed the pros and cons and come to the conclusion that living life was much better in a cloud of noxious fumes.
Naturally, my curiosity had been piqued and I went from accidentally overhearing to full fledged eavesdropping. This person continued, "It's really good for reducing stress, and I'll lose some weight too." Yeah, that's sound logic. As though there aren't things that can reduce stress and help you lose weight without giving you cancer!
"I think I'm going to start smoking again."

Feist - 1 2 3 4
The latest CD from Feist has been keeping my headphones pretty warm lately, so it's about time I share the love.
I'm not a huge fan of music videos, but every once in a while, one comes along that's brilliantly executed. This is one of those videos. Enjoy!

Covered in Nast
Ah, what a productive day. I just got done taking my keyboard apart and cleaning the nast off of each key. It wasn't horribly gross, but it needed to be done.
Other than that it's been pretty quiet around here. I just hope that doesn't have anything to do with my own little cloud I've been sitting in, like my buddy Brak here:

The iPhone, as it should be
I'm so freakin' sick of the iPhone. I even get nauseated just typing its name. Sure, it's pretty and shiny and does lots of nifty stuff, just like the popular kids from school. But as Ani DiFranco once sang, "everyone harbors a secret hatred for the prettiest girl in the room."
But you didn't come here to hear me rant about why I think that the iPhone is just a blonde bimbo with a black soul. Instead, appease your destructo-lust and watch the prettiest girl in the room get her just desserts (you can see the black soul escape at 58 1/2 seconds into the video).
Wasn't that fun? Thanks, Tom. Keep up the good work.
