Perfect shirt for someone we know. The story involves “Giant Cranes” passing under the Bay Bridge and getting two of the images mixed up.
All in good fun!
One after another, McCain’s answers were shallow, simplistic, and trite. He showed the same intellectual curiosity that George Bush has — virtually none.
My thoughts exactly on McCain while watching the religious forum at Saddleback Church in Southern California. Obama’s answers were more thoughtful - though long - which may have lost people who have short attention spans or those seeking a quick soundbite.
Wine in a box has been around for more than 30 years — though with varying quality
We joked about buying boxed wine for a recent camping trip. To be honest it would have been easier to bring. Plus it would have been easier to open seeing how we forgot to bring a wine opener.

O’Sullivan not great, but good enough to win 49ers’ QB job
This morning I was listening to Leo Laporte’s The Tech Guy podcast when he asked the question, “Who owns blog comments?” I never really thought about it, but since I no longer have comments turned on this blog, it made me think more on Leo’s question.
I don’t know the answer or if there is a clear answer.
Leo sides with the comment writer, saying in essence they own their words. Leo’s suggestion is to use a commenting system like Disqus. I’ve used it once on my old blog, but it seemed odd to use since Wordpress has its own commenting system. With Disqus it gives control and ownership of the comment to the writer.
Turning to Google I discovered Hank Williams’ post on blog comment ownership. He makes good points regarding the ambiguity of comment ownership, almost saying both people own the comments or at least Disqus creates even more of a gray area on ownership.
What do you think?
Interesting video attempt to interject the Empire into our daily lives in the Bay Area.
