Congrats to John who just finished pressing the last batch of grapes @ Fiddlehead (he tells me as he drinks a $250 bottle of champagne)

Rust and Surf


Not mine, but after an awesome day at Golden Gate Park my SF pride level is higher than usual. If you don't already subscribe to Daily Interesting Photos I recommend it.

Just realized I forgot to punch steam holes in my baked potato. There's a ticking time bomb in my toaster oven!

Perhaps this comes as a surprise to no one but myself, but pumpkin ale tastes like pumpkins. That is all.

We're trying to politely persuade users to use our site with something newer than IE6. Does anyone have an example they really like?

Just made my first "fring" call to my dad. Quality was surprisingly good! He's thrilled to try it out in South America next month.

I dare anyone to spend more than 5 minutes on Netflix.com and not end up with over 100 items in their queue.

Not sure which is more disconcerting: that I'm still in the office at 1am, or that it's suddenly filled with mosquitos. Sign to leave? Yes.

Am I the only one who hates the way Amazon MP3 names tracks? They add either "(Album Version)" or "(Explicit Album Version)" to *everything*

When McCain got to respond last I was positive he would bring up Bill Ayers. I wonder if he planned to but didn't once he heard the question
I was catching up on old e-mail tonight when I found this from my sister:

Palin Vice Presidential Debate Flow Chart
I love that she can relate to an average Joe Sixpack like me. Am I hoping that a team of outsider mavericks will invite me to a moose-burger BBQ at the White House next year? You betcha.

The new GoDaddy web site is hideous. Another reason to use a different registrar.

Just got home after having not left the office since Thursday morning. Deciding whether to have 1/4 or 1/2 of a beer before passing out.

Slept in the office last night => iPhone dying. Brightness down, 3G off, no google reader waiting for tea water to boil...

I guess she exceeded expectations, the price of Palin is dropping: Link
My favorite contract on Intrade right now is "Sarah Palin to be withdrawn as Republican VP nominee/candidate before 2008 presidential election". Not in a mean-spirited way, but I think the data trends are fascinating. Here's a graph of the lifetime of the contract:
Palin Contract You can see where the price dropped because of her well-received convention speech, and how the price has steadily doubled as her gaucheries were uncovered by Katie Couric. So it's no surprise I'm going to be glued to this site during tomorrow's debate to see how the market reacts her performance.

The following graph should update over time as new data becomes available. You can reload this page to see new numbers, or visit Intrade's site for more info. And let me know if you decide to buy some shares!

Apparently setting a JS breakpoint in WebKit *actually* sets an OS-wide breakpoint and locks up your system when you close the window. Nice.
