The work holiday party is this afternoon -- every day feels like Friday this week.
I hear you. I have zero motivation for work today. - stacey
You know what I *am* thinking about? I might play with the D90 video a bit at the party. I really like the cinematic feel of manual focus and shallow depth of field. - John Flinchbaugh
I surprisingly got work done today, but I think that's just because I have a week of vacation coming up, and want come back with minimal email waiting. - Larry Myers
I'm thinking about lunch, and after lunch I'll be thinking about 4:30. - stacey

Iterative?! What if it doesn't accomplish every last feature of our dreams on day one?! - John Flinchbaugh
I'm just happy people are coming around to the idea that the app store may not be a great place to release software. - Larry Myers from iPhone

's car started ticking like a bomb this morning, plus it's running extremely rough. Guess I need to make it a doctor's appointment soon.
Mine just started making a hissing noise like a steaming tea kettle. Cars suck. - DingBat

Badass. Can we get the address book api for the web/javascript while we're at it? - Larry Myers from Bookmarklet

Agreed. Stop making Left 4 Dead sequels and get back to work on Half Life 2 Ep 3. I need to see how the hell it ends. - Larry Myers from Bookmarklet

Despite being unfinished, Chrome for Mac has yet to do any beachballing (glares at Safari 4), that is a huge feature for me.
I have absolutely no desire to use anything but Firefox. What am I missing? - John Flinchbaugh
really, really fast. very minimalist browser. the extension system is apparently on its way, but firefox is still my browser of choice for doing webdev work. for day to day browsing though I find myself opening up chrome instead of safari. - Larry Myers

Why does Subway have such a terrible selection of chips: all these "baked" things -- how about some regular chips?
When I was at subway the other day they had regular potato chips. Baked ones taste better anyway. - stacey
They took away the buffalo chicken sub. Crackheads. - Larry Myers
I just had the buffalo chicken sub today at the Granite Run Subway. - John Flinchbaugh
Many Subways have items which aren't on the menu. I always get a veggie patty, but it is almost never listed on the menu. - Mark Rebuck

QuirksBlog: Apple is not evil. iPhone developers are stupid. - http://www.quirksmode.org/blog...
I've held this same opinion since the app store was created. I still refuse to build native iphone apps because I don't like the handcuffs you have to accept. - Larry Myers from Bookmarklet

I'm kind of seriously shopping for a flat panel TV. Prices really seem to have dropped so maybe I'll find myself a really awesome deal as the holidays approach.
Figures, I find a TV I am quite interested in with a very nice sale price, and today it's not on sale anymore. I didn't even get a couple of days to think about it. - stacey
I'm in the same boat. The 32" CRT works fine, but $650 for a 42" LCD is tempting. - Larry Myers
You'll finally be able to see that extra couple inches on each side that you've been missing all this time! - John Flinchbaugh
If you buy a shiny, new, lighter LCD, you'll still need to move the beastly CRT out of the way. - John Flinchbaugh
I hope to find someone that wants my current tv. It works perfectly fine, but I don't like not being able to move it at will. - stacey from Nambu
I'd take it but have no place to put it or the required 4 people to move it. - DingBat
TV is spoken for now, but I'll be asking for your assistance when/if it needs relocated. ;) - stacey

Google LatLong: Your world, your map - http://google-latlong.blogspot.com/2009...
The Goog allows anybody to report any problem with their data, mapping or place based. - Larry Myers from Bookmarklet
Google maps didn't have my address pinned to the right place, probably because it still has construction images of my neighborhood, so I moved the pin! I think I also found a misspelled street name in my neighborhood, but I should probably double check the sign to make sure I'm not the one spelling it wrong. - stacey
If the roads are anything like where I grew up, you should check the spelling at both ends of the street to see if it matches, too. - John Flinchbaugh from IM
The spelling is just slightly better on this side of the river, I think. - stacey

Oh no, I think I see v300.x firmware upgrade available for me Nokia E71 NAM. Productivity may suffer today.
Upgrading PC Suite and running a phone backup to the SD card. - John Flinchbaugh
After way too much debugging, it seems that the Updater thing can't find the actual update to download, so I guess I'll wait a bit and try later. - John Flinchbaugh
Still a 404 in the logs. As a North American user, I've waited 3 months longer than European users for the update, so what's another day? - John Flinchbaugh
Does this update finally enable the touchscreen on your phone? - Larry Myers
No. It's not a greasy touch screen device. ;) I'm an update whore -- I'll take whatever new features or improvements it gives me. I'm expecting better stability with lots of applications running and html mail enhancements. - John Flinchbaugh
File still not found this morning when I tried it, and now, my battery's a bit lower than it wants. - John Flinchbaugh

Last count is 8 squad cars, two ambulances, and two fire trucks. All injured scattered, police setting up perimeter.
There were tons of bystanders watching the aftermath last night. Saw most of our neighbors. Have no clue how people got out of the car that upended on the utility pole. Was way impressed with the response time of the city emergency vehicles. - Larry Myers

Checked out the very new Farmingdale Trail in Lancaster.
I don't know why, but Lisa and I have called that road Farmingdaleton ever since we've moved here. Struck us as funny. We're odd people. - Larry Myers
So what did you think of the trail, John? - stacey
It's a nice little walk. We just let Paige take the lead -- lots of choices between creek and woods trails. Check it out near sunset -- lots of great light streaming down the trails. - John Flinchbaugh

I love the word "portlet". It makes me giggle.
If this demo I'm in was a drinking game and I had to drink every time portlet was said, I'd be so trashed right now. - stacey from Nambu
Generally, if you hear portlet once, the presentation is going to be about portlets, and it'll be said lots more. Portlets seldom come alone. - John Flinchbaugh
I've got portlet being used more than once in a sentence. It's like the guy gets paid per use of the word. Not that I mind considering the amusement I get from the word. - stacey from Nambu
Java web development: getting it horribly wrong since 1998. - Larry Myers
But think of the synergies created when your decoupled portlet (portlet, portlet...) code is integrated at the glass automatically by the cross-platform container. And don't worry, we offer support contracts. - John Flinchbaugh
Wait...you're picturing these people working with portable toilets through all the sales presentations, aren't you? - John Flinchbaugh
No, no porta potties. At least not until now. Thanks for ruining a good thing. ;) - stacey

I think They Might Be Giants have actually gotten more awesome as I've gotten older. They were my first real live concert experience as well when I saw them in St. Louis at Mississippi Nights in '96. - Larry Myers from Bookmarklet
