My boy “Bubb Rubb”

Tuesday, November 28th, 2006

If you have never experienced the profound wisdom of “Bubb Rubb” and “Lil Sis” you should watch this video.  I forgot what profound wisdom they imparted to the world in this news clip.  Such memorable lines as “They just fo’ decoration” and “you s’posed to be up cookin’ breakfast fo’ someone, its like an alarm clock”.  I hope you enjoy as much as I do…

Mac Virus

Tuesday, November 28th, 2006

Okay, so not really a virus, but it’s still an impressive (disturbing) accomplishment - peeps over at F-Secure have reported on a piece of adware for Mac OSX.  More interestingly, it doesn’t require admin privileges to “nestle” (their word) itself on the computers, according to F-Secure.  No need to panic; the program is a proof-of-concept sent to F-Secure and it is not out targeting users on the Internet.  That said, the days of ignorant bliss may be numbered.

  

The Mighty Christian Coalition

Tuesday, November 28th, 2006

Here’s a great little news story. The President-elect of the Christian Coalition had decided to leave the group rather than become president. The reason? He wanted to focus on “Christian” issues like helping the poor and maintaining the environment. This apparently is a wider cause than the board of directors was willing to accept since they want the Christian Coalition to be solely about abortion and gay marriage. It’s an interesting [short] read.

Woodbox?

Does anyone actually listen to music via woodbox anymore?

I have a choice of either turning it off or doing a fairly major software update and I’d like to know if anyone cares.

great moments in dangling modifiers
