  • My blog is littered with references to how much I enjoy it when the weather breaks and we get cool nights.  Here is another one.
  • I think the USB hub may be the greatest technological tease there is.  Maybe 40% of what I’ve ever tried doesn’t work correctly plugged into one (and sometimes it’s maddening trying to diagnose a problem, until you remember the hub is in the equation).  I want 12 USB ports on my next desktop.  Do they make that?
  • Talk Like a Pirate Day was yesterday, apparently.  Can we have a Use Proper Grammar Day?
  • Cheap pens suck.  I have the vague feeling I’ve spent a Thursday miscellanea bullet on cheap pens before, but I have a particularly infuriating incident in recent memory.  Cheap pens are a leading cause of slow, painful death in North America.
  • My friend and colleague Jason is in a band called King’s Haze.  I’ve enjoyed what I’ve heard, and I’m hoping to see them soon.  Check them out here.
  • Some great insight here about what your server won’t tell you at a restaurant.  I’ve always thought exactly the opposite of what’s often true of the daily special.  It’s so elementary now.  I feel dumb.
  • I’ve blogged about the hospital before.  Unfortunately, I’ve got an opportunity to do so again.  I’m going to wait for a happy ending before I do.  I hope that comes by tomorrow or so.
