iPhone deal!

AT&T is selling refurbished 8GB iPhones for only $249!

Follow the title link or got to att.com and search for "iphone refurb"

If you don't like AT&T's phone service, TMobile has a great per minute plan. I'll update you on how to use it, 'cause mine's on its way! (It requires modifying the phone somewhat... ;^)

UPDATE: 3/19/08 -- sold out. Probably temporarily, but nonetheless...

So, I got tagged...

by Bert to cough up 6 random things that you all probably don't know about me...

1. I'm a Mac guy.

2. Pizza is Nature's most perfect food.

3. Unless we're having lasagna.

4. I program on a PC because it pays the bills.

5. Our pets are fish.

6. I want a Big Ford Truck.


If you'd like to be tagged for your turn, let me know in comments. (I'm not a great chain-letter forwarder, either. ;^)

An Ounce of Pleasure, a Gallon of Pain

If you happen to see the movie Juno (spoiler alert - don't finish reading this sentence if you care), you'll realize that you don't want to be the adoptive father. It's also disturbing in that there is a very cavalier attitude in the girl, Juno, in question.

Anyway, the idea of hyperbolic discounting... Is what feels good today worth more than the consequences tomorrow, next month, in 10-20 years?

Sex, drugs, food, slothfulness...

A pilot crashes into the jungle, ...

prays and repays.

If this doesn't bring a tear to your eye...

Another reason not to like dogs:

They don't do your health a bit of good.

Cats, on the other hand, are good for reducing incidence of heart attack.

Don't believe me, check the link! ;^)

(Okay, so there weren't enough dogs for a link to be established... Don't shoot me! I'm just the messenger!! ;^)

Perhaps they have reason to, though...

When crocodiles attack...

'Nuf said.

(Isn't there someone we know who blogs animal versus human aggression?)
