i love sinfest

Saturday, May 13. 2006 – Category: Linkage

i’ve said it numerous times, but i love sinfest. if only tatsuya didn’t take so many sabbaticals

anyway, i’m catching up on the last couple of weeks i missed, and the strip from april 30th is probably a classic example of why i love sinfest, and why he will never see mainstream publication.

Man menaces cops with didgeridoo

Man menaces cops with didgeridoo | The Register A man was today sentenced to 180 hours’ community service for threatening police with a didgeridoo after shouting: “Come on then. I’ll have you,” in the traditional British style.

rofl. i love it. it’s just… so English (wrt to the “Come on then. I’ll have you” threat). and come on, you gotta love a guy who attacks another guy with a didgeridoo. i mean, that’s just awesome.

Upon leaving the court today, Jones said: “I had only just started to learn to play the didgeridoo too.”

this reminds me of my parents’ tenant (who lived in a townhouse we own and rented out in Cupertino) who used to be an Apple engineer, but went a little nuts after losing his job. we got a call one day from a neighbour who said there were 3 cop cars outside our townhouse, and that the tenant was threatening police with a weapon. turns out he was pointing his flute out the kitchen window.

thanks to steve, i will have a lasting memory of our time spent sitting on the side of the 580/80 split.

my new tires are great. very grippy… road noise is definitely present, but tolerable. we’ll see how they hold up over the winter.

more than meets the eye

i’ve started using del.icio.us as a bookmark manager. between using firefox on my laptop, on my desktop at home, on my desktop at work, and on wendy’s computer - it’s always a pain not having the same bookmarks on all of them. i now have all my bookmarks online, and firefox synchronises them everytime i use it.

the other neat thing? breaking them down into tags. very very cool. i can have the same bookmark in different tags (i.e.: engadget is both a blog, and a geek site, amazing i know).

it took me about 30 minutes to get used to having all my bookmarks on there, but i love it.
