40 days and 40 show notes.
Is it an unshow if it has content?
2001: A Space Odyssey It was cool, so Jack made a poll and here are the results of the poll:
8 Different ways the film 2001 could be sped up and made more appealing for the short-attention-span contemporary audiences.
1. Replace lead character Dave Bowman with Bobcat Goldthwait or Hamlet
2. Replace Dave’s 4 doomed astronaut companions with John Cleese, Eric Idle, Michael Palin, and Graham Chapman
3. Replace Hal with Bender from Futurama
4. Replace the monoliths with giant D 20′s

Thank you again to the Touching the Monolith guys!
One turn away from an accidental gang bang.
Well no Perseids viewing for me, grey clouds horizon to horizon.

Vanamonde: That was our experience last night. Coupled with a very bright moon.
three oh five
Looked at a photo online and said to yourself “Ooooooh how I would love to use those colours in a colour scheme for my artwork”, well now you can with ColorsucKr:

You have to remove the ‘U’ yourself.
Don’t they remember what happened to T-Rex?

Van: Bruce Willis will save us if an asteroid comes.
Try out google’s new search algorithm:
http://www2.sandbox.google.com/
Wow. Strangely – the search term “deadpan” gets us no love on google today, old or new algorithm. That wasn’t always the case.
We’re still near the top on bing, however.
Can google’s new algorithm find wayward asteroids?
I have to admit that I love the fact that if you type “cherylyn jones” into Google (old or new) I AM the first one that comes up.
I’m trouncing someone who is actually in IMDB.
All because I authored a couple measly video game manuals.
Go me.
On a more trivial note..Duke Nukem 3D is now on the iPhone:

Ah, there we are on at #4 again on Google. Apparently, someone in Fountain Valley reads this page and fixed the problem.
That *OTHER* Cj is a punk.
You are out of luck on Alta Vista.

Non-fun, alarming read about healthcare. Why would I read this kinda stuff today??
Van – if the DN3D works on my iPod Touch it might just be the app that breaks my vow to use ONLY free apps !
Why indeed Jack.
BTW – that is an interesting read.
So this shouldn’t have to be said but apparently IT DOES.
There are NO “Death Panels” in the White House’s health care bill.
There is a provision, originally sponsored by a Republican Senator from Georgia, that would have Medicare provide someone who could explain and make available a “living will” to any senior that requested such information. It’s just a service that would be offered to an individual on request. Now of course, Sarah Palin and her ilk have been on a media blitz, scaring people with talk of death squads for seniors.
The supporters of the status quo have to wage a relentless war of frightening and outlandishly false statements in an effort to keep the public from actually discussing the facts.
Geesh!
In other news -
I bottled 5 gallons of “Oktoberfest” beer today that should be ready mid-October and 5 gallons of Hefeweisen that should be ready in November.
THAT is MY health care plan! :)
and in other OTHER news,
President Barack Obama presented the Medal of Freedom to Stephen Hawking today.
For you “out-of-towners” that is this country’s highest civilian honor… apart from being made a fool of on American Idol, apparently.
?#: Thanks for the “Congrats!” last week. :-) Sorry, just catching up now.
Hi, Debbie! :-)
Usedhair: Hope you’re doing well in your new place! :-)
Thanks Amy. The new place is great, but the move itself was pretty crappy (both the process and having to move in general). All told I’ve taken the whole thing like a surly teenager. My company may have forced me to move to a fantastic location with tons of things to do, but dammit I was happy in my sleepy little upstate NY town. …Not that I have lost sight of how fantastic it is that I have a really good paying job in a crappy economy.
