I just spent an immense amount of time on two posts:
Designing Email for Web Emails. Trying to achieve a single template that will work in proper webmail browsers. It meant basically regressing to 1998 in HTML design.
Flight of the Conchords Episode 6 Recap: “Bowie”. It’s the best thing on TV now that Lost [...]
Inspired by a post of Nancy’s on Tall Glass of Vino about overhearing neighbors- she wants to knock on their door and say, “Yes, I too know why your relationship isn’t working out.” Mimickery being the best form of flattery, thought I’d riff on that too.
Grew up in a dense housing situation (DHS), and overheard [...]
Sosa called Beth to meet them at the garage, and soon they were cruising down Columbus Ave towards Market St. Beth sat in the back and Mikey and Sosa sat in the front of their unmarked Crown Victoria.
“This guy is on your 1st degree list. He was at a couple of the Socializr events, [...]
Just took a break to the coffee room and realized I just wanted to be playing this old video game tonight instead of going to the gym- sacrificing the body for the mind. In college lit classes my friend Ann and I (now an English literature professor!) had this inside joke that every time someone [...]
I would usually write little posts about all these things, but in the lazy person that I am I’m consolidating into one “random bits” post. Makes me feel caught up.
WordCamp 2007
I only managed to catch 3 sessions- a bit of the User Interface one, which some reported was the best talk, Matt’s “state of the [...]
Sosa and Mikey took Stockton to Vallejo, and past the old church to Caffe Trieste. Sosa didn’t remind Mikey to call the suspects before hand. It was close enough to be an informal post-dim sum cappuccino. Sosa knew he was violating the “no milk after noon” Italian rule, but didn’t inform Mikey.
“Two cappuccinos.” Sosa [...]
So I’m on the cable car leaving Union Square, going up Powell towards home. We’re 1 block from the crest and a couple tries to make a run for it- the woman gets on, the guy misses it. We’re about 10 feet up the hill and the conductor stops. They ring the bell, the cable [...]
Something about last night’s pub trivia was magical. I got there at the same time as I’ve gotten there last four weeks (I’m compulsive, I know). 8PM, to get a table. I chatted with a guy at the bar, then saw some people leave and swooped in on their table, beating out other folks waiting [...]
Sosa and Beth sat at the round table of New Asia, with the lazy susan spinning idly under his fingers.
“I’m sure that’s angering some Lazy Susan god.” Beth commented, and swirled the tea leaves in her small white cup. “You know, the chopstick gods, the rice gods, on and on.”
“My wife was telling me [...]
Mikey pulled on his jacket and headed to the stairs to get his car from the parking garage. He had Beth’s list in his hand- the list of the final few suspects that converged with his own list, determined by real detective work.
It took him 30 minutes to get to Cole Valley and [...]
