Ye Olde Blogge

Having a great time in Austin so far. After a few snags with airport parking, missed connection and a broken coffee pot, I’m now sitting in the lobby waiting for Mike. We stayed out way, way late last night. First, we attempted to go to the BlogHer meetup at Stubbs. We hung out at the…

We missed a connecting flight, so we’re hanging out for a few hours in the airport. We had lunch with beer. Now we’re watching CNN, blogging. Wish we were napping. Tags: sxsw,sxsw2006,Geeky Mom Please consider donating to my efforts in the Susan G. Komen 3-Day Walk for the Cure

Last night, Geeky Boy watched the video I linked to in the post below. If you haven’t seen it, the creators go to an abortion clinic protest and ask each participant one by one if they think abortion should be legal or illegal. They all say illegal, of course. Then, they ask what the punishment…

Personally, in the last couple of months, my life has been largely sexism free. I have not directly experienced anything sexist. That’s not to say I haven’t experienced it in the past. I have been trying to write this post for 24 hours now. I’ve written stuff. I’ve erased it. Honestly, I’m not sure where…

PSoTD wonders about the realism in Eight Below and I head to Wikipedia to see what I can find out. Those are kelp gulls, btw. I have not been able to determine if they hang out there in the winter. I use my laptop as a cookbook. I’m excited to see my cocomment greasemonkey script…

I do not know what I’m doing. I kind of know what I’m doing. Have sought clarification and enlightenment from those who do know. Something will crystalize and it will all be okay. On NPR, they said the reason the Oscar show ratings were down was that no one cared about the movies. I cared…

Watching tivo’d oscars. Jon Stewart is kind of sucking. Course this has got to be a hard gig. Liked the cowboy sequence though. Hmm, don’t know about George Clooney. He’s an odd duck. What’s funny is I haven’t seen any of these movies–have no idea if he deserves it. Stewart still sucks. Wallace and Gromit–yay!!…

The polls are open. This here blog is nominated in the Most Deserving of Wider Recognition category. There are lots of good blogs in all the categories. I’ve added quite a few of them to my regular reading list. And that’s the main point of the awards anyway. So go vote for your favorites, whether…

Ragey asked for the script to do the technorati tags. Here it is. I had installed the del.icio.us script too, but I don’t like it as much. The technorati tag thing works very nicely. My next geeky search is to be able to list “categories” on this blog. I can get a tag cloud, but…
