Hey! DZ is going to ride the Giro after all. All right! - Corey Porter

Drool. - Corey Porter

It's amazing how acting like an unruly mob destroys your credibility. Well played, Midnight Ridazz. - Corey Porter

Clearly ("clearly") I will need one of these when the gold line comes to Monrovia. (Will it be faster to bike to the train station and wait for the train than it would to just ride in? Somehow I doubt it.) - Corey Porter

Money quote: "This issue is wrongly portrayed by both the liberal and the conservative media as one of management versus labor, when really it is a battle between General Motors past and General Motors present. In the 50s, 60s and 70s, everyone benefited: GM and its shareholders got the benefit of higher profit margins, and meanwhile, its employees benefited from GM's willingness to cut a bad deal -- for every dollar they were giving up in salary, those employees were getting a dollar and change back in retirement benefits. But now, everyone is hurting." - Corey Porter

You know, I think this sounds pretty crazy, but at the same time I wouldn't want to try to staff a 10,000 person company. (Or be staffed at one, for that matter.) - Corey Porter

You know, this is pretty cool. I wonder if they'd let me use one, as I don't ride a fixie. - Corey Porter

CNBC can't afford any of the people who were "actually right about the economic crisis." - Corey Porter

Doctorow sure can be an alarmist pinhead. Way to shout large numbers without the smallest curiosity about what they mean. - Corey Porter

I started using Linux in November of '94. I didn't realize that it was still pre-1.0 back in January of that year when a friend was pushing me to use it. - Corey Porter

I already use an ipod touch for much of my at-home non-typing type computer stuff. I don't know if having a bigger screen would be much of a win, though.... (Maybe a bigger screen and a bluetooth keyboard?) - Corey Porter

People still use paper resumes? That's weird. - Corey Porter

Bad luck for Jill and Geoff. Their training journals have been great reads over the last few months. Hope they both recover quickly and fully. - Corey Porter

These are some truly great looking racks. - Corey Porter

But can't you get from London to Paris or whatever for like EUR10 on Ryanair? (And then rack up EUR200-300 in fees?) - Corey Porter

This happened over the weekend. I say good riddance. That's the kind of tree I have in my back yard, and I hate the damn thing with the white hot passion of 1,000 suns. (And yeah, it will be stupid hot on the street for one summer. Whatev's, reasonable-tree haters.) - Corey Porter

Wouldn't a higher gas tax be a much more straightforward way of accomplishing the same thing? - Corey Porter

This is why I drive a Honda. - Corey Porter

I don't get it. Why is this bad? Can't you just drop out of Boxee, fire up a browser and Hulu to your heart's content? Seriously, why is this a problem? - Corey Porter

I'm pretty sure that being brought up on assault charges is at least as bad as having your picture taken with a bong or being on a list of ball players who juiced. - Corey Porter

This seems more a novelty than an actual safety feature. - Corey Porter

What a dick. - Corey Porter

Wow. What a dick move. - Corey Porter

Want. - Corey Porter

I for one support the GOP taking strategy advice from Joe the Plumber. - Corey Porter

This is surprising, as I do believe you would get your ass kicked in Olathe for drivin' one of them thar ferrign cars. - Corey Porter

Ha! - Corey Porter

Awesome! What this means for me is: The last *Thursday* of each month is the day when I will without question break my bike somehow. - Corey Porter

Well that's interesting. - Corey Porter

Cool. I wonder if the flights out of LAX will be less expensive than the flights out of Ontario. - Corey Porter
