- What a beautiful day yesterday. Roll Tide!
- Told you he was an asshole. Believe me yet? How about now? How about now?
- I played with an iPod Touch at the Apple Store last weekend. I didn’t realize it retained so many of the capabilities of the iPhone (WiFi, applications, etc.). I still don’t want an iPhone, but I might want one of these if/when my TX quits.
- Scientists recently cloned an extinct ibex, and it lived for seven minutes. Maybe Junior’s going to have that pet woolly mammoth he’s always wanted after all.
- Facebook apparently limits you to 5,000 friends. I’m a long way from bumping my head on even that, but they’re about to raise the limit to 100,000.
- Check out the disclaimer at the bottom of this job posting (hat tip, Fighting Windmills).
- So far, who needs a partisan divide?

And isn’t the Touch iPod a lovely creature? I love mine. I was extremely obsessed with the iPhone when it came out, but I’m a Verizon user and wasn’t going to change my service. But, then, the Touch iPod appeared and there was much rejoicing. Did I say I love it? I adore it. I like to just hold it and touch it and…. Oh, sorry, I lost focus there for a minutes….
Nah… the Simpson thing doesn’t make him an asshole. He was just reading the headline on that one. The media is the guilty party there. Apparently, it sells newspapers to call a popular person fat.
I agree with Lea, theres nothing here on the Simpson thing.
Obama is learning, I think, that making all these idealistic promisses is going to cause him some big headaches. Whether it’s promising us lobbyist free government or never torturing (as liberals define it) people, or whatever. We’ll probably see another promiss go up in smoke the next time we catch a terrorist with some “have to have” information.
It’s possible that He meant P-H-A-T.
Greg: Is that a ‘He’? I know the media thinks he’s the Messiah, but I never expected it from you…
Bo: I used to dread signing day. Not anymore. Roll Tide!
49 out of top 150 recruits went to the SEC. I guess they are learning where the winners are and who goes pro. Looks like LSU beat Alabama today in the recruiting classes ;-). http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/recruiting/classrankings
Yeah, yeah, I know on the Jessica Simpson thing. It’s just the sort of thing that would have legs with a conservative “perp,” though.
Terri: The irony is, I’d probably still use my old iPod for a music player. I like dedicated devices.
Jenny: I’m certain there is sarcasm in that capitalization.
BB_FAN: ISTR ESPN insisting we didn’t win last year, either. Two in a row for the Tide according to rivals.com. 🙂
Yes, I still use my regular iPod almost exclusively for music. I use the Touch mostly for video and for the wireless internet access.
…and 0-2 against your last two opponents!
What kills me about the Jessica Simpson thing (or any celebrity for that matter) is that it’s not the media calling Jessica Simpson fat that makes her fat. It’s the fat. Either she is or she ain’t per accepted medical standards (e.g. %BF, BMI Index…). Do something about it or own it. I didn’t hear any complaints from the Simpson camp when the media was talking her up for her “Dukes of Hazzard” video.
Hey! I put a “sorry I couldn’t resist” disclaimer in angle brackets next to my Alabama insult and it didn’t stick!
Fear Lord Saban.
Quips about the last two games are pathetic musings of the weak, ignored unless you are from Gainsville or Utah. More pain coming from the meanest SOB on the planet next season. Lo, I am become death.
Fear is the mind killer.
