Levi Johnston: Palin resigned to cash in on fame - Yahoo! News - http://news.yahoo.com/s...
"Asked if he would vote for her if she ran for president, Johnston said: "I think she's a great lady, but after seeing what she did now, you know, leaving Alaska, I would have to say, 'no.' Obviously she's stressed out as governor. I mean moving up to the vice president or president is huge. I just don't think anymore that she's cut out for the job."" - Kevin Pedraja from Bookmarklet
19 year old Levi is smarter than his baby mamma's mamma. - Kevin Pedraja
I've decided that Kindle for iPhone is my 2nd favorite iPhone app, behind MLB Gameday. I use those 2 far more than any others.
@kegill Still think the best rev. model for NYT is a heavily subsidized or free e-reader (Kindle?) & cheaper electronic subscriptions.

@warrenss Are you catching a Sox game while you're there?
Bing may be a real Google alternative, but...
...when I tried to scroll back to the previous day's start page picture, it told me I needed to update Silverlight. Seriously? A plug-in required to use a search engine? That, in a nutshell, encapsulates Microsoft's business model. Build market share for one product by forcing it on the users of another. And that's why they won't win this battle. - Kevin Pedraja

OK, so picked these favorites days ago, but I couldn't get them to appear in my feed until I went to my FF settings and hit "refresh Flickr." What's that all about? - Kevin Pedraja
Why don't we see more Seattle venture capitalists blogging? http://www.techflash.com/venture... (via @johnhcook) <-- (or Twittering).
OK, this is getting serious. What the hells is wrong with Jonathan Papelbon? The guy is a heart attack every night. #RedSox

Seems like my Flickr favorites have stopped updating altogether. This vexes me. I'm very vexed.
It's quite possible that Fake Steve Jobs is the funniest thing on the Web right now. Seriously: http://fakesteve.blogspot.com/2009...
@Gartenberg Maybe Amiga OS will finally make a comeback.
@fstop23 Curse me now. But you will thank me later. :D
.@fstop23 Vosges makes a bacon chocolate bar. It's awesome. http://www.vosgeschocolate.com/product...
@warrenss Buccholz for Doc straight up, plus maybe another B/B+ level prospect. I'd do that deal every day of the week and twice on Sunday.

After 4 days away from the office, FF and Twitter, I am finding it really hard to engage.
With online communities, I have found that it is easiest if you do not go through the backlog of messages, but start when you re-enter. Work is different, but that's why I love using my Out Of Office, so that people will not just blindly send me emails when they know I'm not gonna respond for a couple of days or, in some cases, for a couple of weeks, - Rene Wirtz
Same here. Gone for 3 days and getting back into the stream seems to be such a chore. - ronin
What's better than a 3-day weekend? A 4-day weekend.

CNN Political Ticker: Sarah Palin won't seek re-election. To step down soon. - http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/
She just won't go away... - Kevin Pedraja from Bookmarklet
Doesn't this mean she is going away, unless she is running for something else, but this is an unusual move if so. - Robert Haas
Two words: Palin 2012! - Michael Forian from iPhone
What are the loopholes for keeping campaign funds? - LPH™ and his dog P™
Robert, the speculation is she's stepping down now to prep for a presidential run. - Kevin Pedraja
She is doing it to prep and run. - Nation Hahn
I guess she missed that fact that the people said "HELL NO" the first time. - Alex Scoble
So she resigns with just two and a half years of governorship? Nice plan; I don't buy it. It makes more sense to let the term run out. It wouldn't be her first mistake, though. - Robert Haas
She's a quitter. EPIC FAIL. - Bill Sodeman
The 2012 race doesn't start in earnest for at least another year. It makes no sense to resign the governorship before then, and it makes no sense to run for President without even having a full term under her belt. Further, he term ends in 2010 - she could decline to run for re-election and still have plenty of time to mount a primary campaign. I believe she might be stupid enough to try for a run anyway, but the more likely explanation is that she's being forced out due to an impending scandal. - Eric P
It better be an immersion crash course for Mrs Palin to even get close to being ready for the 2016 elections ... - Rene Wirtz
+1 Rene - did anyone UNDERSTAND that woman's speech? Something about Trig being pregnant?!? - Bill Sodeman
I guess governing is hard work. ( http://www.youtube.com/watch... ) Personally, I think it's way more likely she'll go on her own show to Fox News than a run at the Presidency. - Andrew C
Eric - That's kinda what I'm thinking - there's something else going on here. Andrew - That's an excellent thought Andrew. They would probably KILL to have her on Fox. - Alex Hellstrom
I agree with her saying that her leaving makes the road free for an incredible future for Alaska ... or did I just take that out of contect? - Rene Wirtz
Palin on Fox? Isn't Fox full of enough bullshit already? - Ian May
+1 Kevin - Bill Sodeman
Work takes way too much time away from FFing. Happy weekend, all.

Fees, fees & more fees. It's time to quit B of A. Anyone have a suggestion for a service oriented, NW/Seattle-based bank or credit union?

Lots to do before a 4-day weekend. But I like Thursdays that are really Fridays.
