Sushi DNA Tests Reveal Fraud →
rnebblesworth: rcmaclean: A biologist walks into a sushi bar and orders some tuna. What does he get? It really depends. More than half of eateries tested either misrepresented or couldn’t clarify the type of fish they were… Wow, gross.  How could Obama let this happen?! Maybe he was too busy brushing up on a ‘explaining dialectical materialism to dummies’ primer.

TumblrPad? Typelr? →
Looks like someone was tired of a free site taking a piece of their pie. TypePad (or SixApart I suppose) just launched a Tumblr clone. The interface needs some work but the feature set is nice. I’m not about to jump ship, but I suspect brand recognition is going to get TypePad Micro some good publicity.

Trying Twitux on Ubuntu. The issue all of these apps run into is that they are so damn unpolished. It’s tough being spoiled by OSX.

a new sex position!
ragbag: i just came up with an awesome new sexual position. it’s called a 169. it’s where i walk in on my girlfriend doing sixty nine with some other dude and i just stand there wondering what to do. full disclosure: the square root of 169 is 13. I laughed for several minutes after reading this. I guess it just tickled me the right way.

Google Wave
I finally got an invite. They don’t give you actual invites to use immediately but they give you 8 invite suggestions, which I presume works the same way if only slower. That being said. I still have 4 available, so if you would like one let me know. First come, first served. If you don’t know what Google Wave is, check it out.

sign the petition, send a coat hanger →
Does this sound a little extreme to anyone else? I’m a pro-choice liberal and all…but sending elected officials coat hangers as a political statement? That’s a bit strong for me.

The Volokh Conspiracy » Pfizer Corporation Plans... →
rnebblesworth: “So far, the main beneficiaries of the Kelo takings seem to be the feral cats who have settled in the area.  Far from producing the “economic development,” the Kelo condemnations have actually damaged the local economy by destroying taxpaying homes and businesses and expending large amounts of public money for no return.” Holy shit. I remember reading about this ~4 years ago....
