If you see me at Anthrocon...

DO consult your physician. I am not there.

Those two links I posted yesterday? They do not go to Rick Astley videos. In fact, they do not go to videos at all.

It seemed many, many folks were doing the Rickroll crap, so I decided to admit to it and then not do it.

With the excess of the Rickroll that happened across the net yesterday, I can only hope that it now finally seen for the lameness that it has always been. The most amusing thing even referring to it was Wil Wheaton's comment that he hoped something would "...storm the Internets like Mahir Rickrolling a LOLCat."

...the day that the trash and the recycling is picked up!

Between Jay's illness, my illness, and a big gap since the last recycling pickup, things were piling up. Today's pick-up will nicely reset things.

According to this story some folks want to get others to run programs to repeatedly re-load various Republican web sites in hopes of chewing up bandwidth and making the sites useless for their intended purpose.

It strikes me that the best response to this may be, as soon as it is detected, to load up the page(s) with pay-by-view advertising (if there still is any) and turn the folks trying to bring things down into a revenue source. It might not be much, but the "I was raising money for the Republicans?! Arrrrghhh!!" reaction would be worth far more than the money.
