February 25th, 2007 by mdI don’t have anything personally against either Taco Bell or KFC. But I do have some advice for the franchisee of the “restaurant” located in Greenwich Village that was shut down recently for a rat infestation: cover the windows of the store so that the large groups of people standing in front of your store […]
2 Comments » February 25th, 2007 by mdThis is one of the most beautiful sculptures in the world. It’s actually my favorite sculpture. It’s Bernini’s Apollo and Daphne.

February 24th, 2007 by mdCan you do me a favor? I want to play a little yoke on some of my students. I give them crap from time to time about not posting comments on the discussion board for our course website, http://mse282.org.

Category : Stuff February 20th, 2007 by mdI am happy to know that Sirius and XM are going to merge. Contrary to the FCC pablum about this being bad for consumers, I think it’s great news.

February 18th, 2007 by mdI don’t know about you, but I think that in the final eliminations for the 12th male and female spaces on AI last week, they got it exactly wrong! Sundance and Antonella were clearly not as strong as the other two they were up against whose names I cannot remember — isn’t that sad how […]
February 18th, 2007 by mdIf you haven’t read this book, read it. If you have read it, give it to a friend. It is the funniest thing I have ever read. Toole was a brilliant writer whose talent, sadly, went unnoticed while he was living. Big props to Mother Toole who worked hard to get her son’s work published […]
February 12th, 2007 by mdWow. Where to begin with this? First of all, what is he doing in business class? Secondly, what’s with the bathroom love? Very tacky. I love that he was on his way to Mumbai as a Unicef ambassador for safe sex practices.
Read the details.
February 11th, 2007 by mdI was talking to someone today who asked if I wanted comments or not. The answer is YES. I’ve been doing this for a little while and traffic is picking up a bit. I would love any comments … positive or negative. But please be polite. If you have swear words to say, please abbreviate […]
