Adobe and Macromedia
Apr 21st
You may have heard me whining about Adobe (creator of the infernal PDF format who’s only really good product is Photoshop) buying Macromedia (creator of flash and other web/publishing-friendly products) the other day (if you haven’t, trust me, I whined).
Daring Fireball’s put together an easy to understand FAQ about the buy that attempts to answer questions about what will happen to products of both companies. Might be worth a read, since both product lines factor into the future of … every … web site.
The buy really is saddening, but there’s humor in everything.
Cheap Gas
Apr 14th
I like saving money on gas.
I like supporting the local economy, since this guy’s not far from me.
I also like that it’s an adaptable system. When/if gas prices ever go down again, you can use it for other things.
Relax, Rabbi. You can have your Viagra this Passover.

It never fails to surprise me how male-dominated institutions find every loophole imaginable to suit their own needs.
Congress can change the rules about what’s inappropriate if the majority whip gets in trouble.
When Russian democracy gets too out of hand for the old Kremlin boys to manage, they cut back on voting.
When Jewish men realize there’s a rising agent in Viagra (well duh), they find a way to make it kosher during Passover.
