A collection of stuff I don’t want to pass up:<\/p>\n

\n<\/p>\n

I used to have one of the bright yellow Sony Walkmans
\nused here<\/a> to house an
\niPod.  Used to.  So I spent 30 minutes rummaging through the boxes of
\njunk we have stored in the attic.  Didn’t find it.  If I can find one,
\nI’d sure like to give the conversion a try (via<\/a>). \n<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Earlier this week, at Bush’s speech in Utah, at least one person in the crowd
\ndonned "Bullshit Protector" ear covers. 
\n
\nBoing Boing<\/a> picked it up; there’s a link to a PDF so you can make your own,
\ngood for those times when, you know, it’s possible that what you’re hearing has
\nsome BS mixed in.<\/p>\n

The CBA’s Dakota Wizards have
\n
\nhired<\/a> former Baylor
\n
\nscandal-maker<\/a> Dave Bliss (via<\/a>). 
\nWow.  The coach who "made mistakes," such as doing his best to cover up,
\nwell, a helluva lot of criminal activity in his program is able to find work
\nagain coaching basketball?  Wizardry indeed.  At the same time Cincy
\n
\nis parting <\/a>with 16-year head basketball coach
\n
\nBob Huggins<\/a>, whose reputation for being acerbic and even downright rude
\n(indifferent attitude toward his players’ life-beyond-sport?) is well-known. \n<\/p>\n

From Kairosnews<\/a>,
\nthis link to an entry suggesting
\n
\n"The demise of the geek bloggers."<\/a>  But the evidence of this vanishing
\nis somewhat suspect.  We’re seeing a consumerist expansion among weblogs
\n(more business blogs, more corp stuff), but the "demise" is just as likely a
\nre-positioning in the power law curve.  The shift of geek bloggers from the
\ntop 50 spots in Technorati doesn’t necessarily mean that they’re vanishing. 
\nInstead, it means that they’re not as tightly clustered or well-linked as the
\nblogs that are filling up the head of the curve (extroverts or consumer blogs,
\nas the article names them). Since we rarely perceive blogspace as a total
\nstructure (I mean that it’s not singularly apprehend able; we can’t see it all
\nat once), the shift of geek bloggers or any other nested micro-cluster doesn’t
\nnecessarily reflect a drop in
\n
\nblogging activity<\/a>.  Yes?<\/p>\n

Good chance that we’re heading out to the NY State Fair this afternoon. 
\nPhotos later (yeah, I’ll be the one holding the cotton candy and elephant ears
\nand camera while my kid goes on all the rides…maybe D. will go on some of the
\nstuff, too; as for me, no kicks in jamming my knees into a jostling metal bar over
\nand over again). <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
