Today in Food (2004/01/15)
Burger King, to win back customers lost to low-carb diets, has introduced the “Bunless Whopper”. I won’t be able to sample one for four more weeks however (until my own diet is over). I’m posting this even though … Continue reading

“White are the far-off plains
And white the fading forests grow”

Movie Listings
I guess this is Steal Ideas off Jaquandor‘s Site week. He cites a new pastime of ticking off which movies one has seen of IMDB’s Top 100. It looks like I’m fairly well-versed — well-spooled? — in the … Continue reading

Blog Within a Blog: My New Computer 6.5
From the “I Guess I’ll Just Never Learn” Department: I just ordered a new SATA drive for my supercomputer. As you’ll recall, it was the SATA drives which failed last month, causing me to lose between 160 and … Continue reading

Today in Food (2004/01/08)
An old story, but one I only just saw. Charles R Grady, SFG’s “Fathead of the Week”, has sued Frito-Lay on the grounds that Doritos damage his throat. Perhaps he should try chewing first. The suit … Continue reading
Today in Food (2004/01/07)
