If you’re freaking out like a mental patient because the 1.11 WoW patch enabled server-side “Looking for Group” chatter, just install Call to Arms.
Not only does it make the problem go away, because you can just /leave lookingforgroup, you also get a much nicer front-end to group-seekers and can announce your own availability.
This is probably not the last super nerdy WoW-related post I’ll make.
I played with Pandora for a few minutes today.
My bug report has been filed and hopefully will get addressed. I’m very curious about this software and I really like it a lot, but it lacks search, and seems to have some serious issues with page management at the moment.
I am thrilled! There is a new Aikido dojo opening up right next door to Javaspeed Scooters right in my own neighborhood.
Whoever you are, domo! Onigai shiamsu! See you on opening day!
High Gas Prices Told to Go Scoot | The Providence Journal | Local News:
Scooter commuter Emory Lundberg, of Providence, said he gases his ride about once a week. Lots of people buy gas once a week, but how many are satisfied with $4 of unleaded per fill-up? Lundberg’s scooter squeezes a gallon of gas for about 85 miles, he said.

Great coverage for Javaspeed Scooters in the Providence Journal tonight/tomorrow.
Ever-so-slight mis-quote there; I get around 85 miles for 1.5 gallons, if I’m really gentle to my scoot. Truth is I usually really let ‘er have it most of the time and thus mileage goes down a bit. I do laugh every time I see an SUV pull up to get gas next to me though. Sometimes it is hard not to be smug when the poor guy is banging his head against the fuel door of his Ford Drinksalot.
After a quick bite at the coffee bar, Lundberg pulled his helmet on, then drove his scooter into North Main traffic, traveling alongside a full-sized pickup truck that gets around 16 miles per gallon.
Be careful out there.
I’m installing 10.4.6 onto hungus tonight.
I have decided that the official snack food of KVET.CH will be Chex Mix Sweet ‘N Salty Trail Mix.
My only complaint is that there are pretzels in the bag. Were it not for these pretzels, I would inhale the whole thing like some sort of trail-mix feedbag.
I’ll see if I need to start putting in redirects for old URLs. I probably should, but to be honest this version of my weblog isn’t nearly as popular as my previous blogs, so I can probably get away with leaving it as-is.
I put the gtd-white-paper back online first, so thats working fine.
New Typo seems pretty nice. Still have a lot of tuning and tinkering to do.
I’ve had a fever for the past few days. I had a sore throat last Thursday but though it was all going away. I have no idea what bug I have, but it is really starting to get old. I’m bumming around the house and napping all day.
Over 4,000 people read my GTD Whitepaper in two days. I’m glad it was noteworthy and helpful to so many of you. I will be committing some new changes and additions soon, a lot of great feedback and questions have come to me via the 43Folders Board, which is a fantastic discussion group for GTD users.
A lot of the feedback has been surrounding DEVONthink, which almost magically makes sense of a vast library of reference material I’ve accumulated over a decade. Apparently there is no parallel for Windows users. There are a ton of information managers for Mac OS X and a few good ones for Windows, but nothing, and I mean nothing, comes close to DEVONthink Pro. It is the most invaluable research tool I have.
So what happens on a sick day?
I still follow office emails and home emails, and I do lightweight project work. My @home context card gets whittled away leaving only things that require more brain power and motor skill. It is a great day to catch up on my !later tag on del.icio.us, and catch up on low-priority things.
I can flip through Someday/Maybe for something easy later. Most of the active projects I have right now require coordination and/or a fully functioning brain.
I’m trying to migrate this to -CURRENT Typo. It doesn’t appear to be working as well as it should.
