- Twenty-one years. Happy birthday, Macintosh! Be sure to watch the movie at some point. Pretty rare footage from Steve rolling the Mac out to Apple employees in Cupertino. [scottk]
- Out on Nicollet Island, DeLaSalle High wants home-field edge, and hopes to build some bleachers and make a decent field for sports. Residents of the island oppose the plan. I think a field that could be used for multiple sports would be a lot better than the tennis courts that’ll be displaced. [strib]
- In Heather Has (N, where N is a positive integer) Mommies, Evan points out that Canadian decisions to allow gay marriage may be opening the door for polygamous marriages. Not surprisingly, Cosh has more on the subject. [101-280 and colby cosh]
- The White House cuts Hubble fix-up funds , but it might just a political ploy so they can blame Congress when money is added back to the budget to repair the space telescope. [fark!]
- Sounds as though the Bikes Against Bush Case Closed (for now). At Josh’s website it’s clarified that he really got a Adjournment in Contemplation of Dismissal, which isn’t quite the same thing. [kottke]
- You know you want a Portable Rotary Cellular Phone, don’t you? Well, perhaps not. But I do. [jwz]
- Speaking of cordless, a UK company, called Splashpower has a Universal wireless charging solution. Recharge portable devices without having to plug them in. [slashdot]
Not really much to ramble about today. Yesterday went as planned, with lots of time spent nearly horizontal with a belly full of ibuprofen. My back feels better this morning, but I’m going to wait until at least tomorrow afternoon before going to go attack the wall of snow across the end of my sidewalk from the snowplows. And then I might just pile it on top of the car whose owner seems to think that their correct parking spot is with blocking my sidewalk, in spite of there being no other cars on the entire street, and not parking so the passenger door is even lined up so a passenger could use my sidewalk.
