Basic Unix Commands
For my own use, a handy list of Basic Unix Commands.
Free a Book
Today I joined BookCrossing and soon I’ll be leaving books all over the damn place.
I enjoyed this process when it was dollar bills, so I can’t see why I won’t enjoy it even more with paperbacks. (Thanks to Let Me Make My Point(e) for the link.)

How to Build an H-Bomb in your kitchen.
Who wants to be a passive victim of nuclear war when, with a little effort, you can be an active participant?

Engaged!
Guess what! Ron & Amy are getting married. Congrats to them both!
(Also, Ron’s dog Prana had nine healthy puppies this week. I know because Ron called Brett and said, “How long will this LAST?!” while Prana was in labor.)
I Want
Every time I go to ThinkGeek, I discover frivolous crap I adore the moment I lay eyes on it. I mean, really, it’s amazing the fun and useless crap they sell there every single day of the year.
For instance: I want this keyboard now, please.
It glows in the damn dark, people! IN THE DARK! How do they always know what I want? First the Zippo digicam, and now this!
Oh what I would give to work at ThinkGeek!

Today the ‘box is green, in honor of what I hope will soon be an early spring. (There’s snow on the ground outside, but hope springs eternal.)
I used a fixed wallpaper backgroud, and edited a stylesheet from movablestyle.org. I think it’s pretty busy, but it’s less boring than the white terror I’ve had up since moving to this server.
It’s greeny! Do ya like it?
