John Boehner’s policies have created some great new jobs: children as young as 9 can be beef testers at Tyson Fresh Meats to check for e. coli contamination. Thank you, Mr. Boehner, for employing our nation’s children and letting them serve as our first line of defense against food-borne illness.

tumblr clients for Mac OS X
If you’re unsure which to buy, Tumblita or Beelog, I’ll save you $12 to buy them both and just tell you that they’re both bad.
Tumblita lets you have multiple tumblr accounts and post to them. It doesn’t let you read any of the tumblr blogs you follow, though.
Beelog looks and feels like the email client Sparrow, and lets you easily view all your followed tumblr blogs. But it doesn’t let you use multiple accounts.
Are thousands of half-open SYNs the 21st century’s seat at the lunch counter?

I use PhoneView to play media off my iPhone as if it were an external harddrive while attached to my MacBook Air. Why? Because my MacBook Air is attached to speakers and/or headphones so all of my audio is going into one output device. It’s a MacBook Air so I don’t keep my iTunes library (or photos for that matter) on it, so this works quite well.
My Midori notebook in passport-sized flavor. I love it.
System Requirements: None, because it’s wireless and doesn’t require a computer.
Amazon knows it’s a post-PC world.

Sadness is a barnacle,
clinging to your bright boat.
You won’t let it sink your spirits
if you’ll only learn to float.
We are all sea captains,
sailing on life’s rough seas.
Come all you Magellans, come with me I’ve got pie.
Happiness pie.
