It appears as if the whole world is conspiring to make me feel smart. And the crazy thing is, this doesn't seem like a good thing to me. I'd actually prefer if someone, you know, in a position of power was playing the role of having a clue.

I've noticed that I get the same spam emails to many of my multiple addresses. This gave me an idea for filtering spam. Set up an email address for yourself that you never give to any person you want email from. But you make it widely available on the web. This account should get all spam. Now have your regular accounts check every incoming message against the messages in your spam account, and throw out any matches.

This doesn't really solve the bandwidth wasting problem of spam (it actually makes it a little worse,) but it would be pretty good against the time wasting problem.

This is the first time I've been out of bed in two days. Still not fully recovered, but on my way. I haven't been sick like that in a long time. Really high fever. I didn't even look at the web once.

I walked into the coffee shop today and Tim was sitting at the counter. "Jim" he said, grinning, "I've come over to your side." At first I couldn't figure out what he was talking about. Had he slept with a girl? No, he bought a Mac.

Short interview with the wife and two children of Philip K. Dick.

(OK, yeah, it's not that interesting, but c'mon, we're talking PKD. Any explanations are helpful.)

Outside of my coerced adventure into the land of javascript drop down menus, most of what I've been doing lately involves stripping unnecessary features out of my CMS (I never know what to call it, but it's vaguely a Content Management System.) This is for a specific implementation (the basic business site implementation) where a lot of the built in features aren't needed. And even though I was aware of this general idea, I'm still shocked to find the whole package improving the more I trim it down.

Maybe someday I'll get all the way back to zero. The most elegant solution: look for yourself and remember.

I couldn't bring myself to watch. If someone could provide very brief scoring of the speach I'd be grateful. (I mean, you watched it, right?)

Wow that's cool (requires Flash - give it a second to load.)
