19. October, 2003 - odds & ends
- Utah soldier leads toy drive for Iraqi children. That’s Chief Wiggles and he’s doing a pretty darned good thing, I think. [instapundit]
- Letter perfect tells of a St. Paul printer who prints things the old way, and is making a good business of it.
- Photo Friday is a weekly photo challenge. Looks relatively cool, and maybe I’ll start checking it to come up with more ideas of things to take pictures of.
- The EFF’s asking folks to Stop the MPAA’s Broadcast Flag! Time to write some letters, and soon. The FCC has promised to act before the end of the month. [boing boing]
- Telemarketers are Ringing around the rule , and this article looks at the techniques they’ll be using to interrupt your day. [fark!]
- I realized yesterday (while recovering from the fun evening I was shown Friday night by Bill, Steph & Tim) that there are now people who are of legal age to drink who weren’t even born when I graduated from high school. Now how the hell did that happen? Musta been while I wasn’t paying attention.
- Finally, I also have what’s hopefully a final update on the Hockey Riot 2003. Eight men are now felons because they were idiots one night back in April.
