Looks like the Mad Hatter should be sitting in that. - Jonathan Le Plastrier

that looks perfect - Robin Barooah from IM

"If I were a younger man, I would write a history of human stupidity; and I would climb to the top of Mount McCabe and lie down on my back with my history for a pillow; and I would take from the ground some of the blue-white poison that makes statues of men; and I would make a statue of myself, lying on my back, grinning horribly, and thumbing my nose at You Know Who. –Kurt Vonnegut, Cat’s Cradle (1963)" - Jonathan Le Plastrier

"An aide to the First Lady, wearing a radio on the back of her dress, watches as President Barack Obama, First Lady Michelle Obama, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and his wife, Mrs Gursharan Kaur, greet guests in the Blue Room of the White House at the State Dinner, Nov. 24, 2009." - Jonathan Le Plastrier from Bookmarklet

That's quite the earpiece -- is that 'aide' with airquotes? - sara

The line for Southwest was so long it stretched into the international terminal. A little bit of rain resulted in a 4 hour delay, so I decided to make this video while I waited. Nothing compared to the 24 hour delay I am currently experiencing. - Jonathan Le Plastrier

Yeah the battery on my phone died right before the Queen arrived so I didn't take a photo. She was pretty spectacular. I was more excited to finally get on my plane so I didn't wait to get an autograph. - Jonathan Le Plastrier

"“I don’t care about Sandia or the Department of Justice or any of them,” General Jabiri said. “I know more about this issue than the Americans do. In fact, I know more about bombs than anyone in the world.”" - Jonathan Le Plastrier from Bookmarklet

"On Tuesday, a guard and a driver for The New York Times, both licensed to carry firearms, drove through nine police checkpoints that were using the device. None of the checkpoint guards detected the two AK-47 rifles and ammunition inside the vehicle." - Jonathan Le Plastrier

Be careful to avoid the pollution. - Jonathan Le Plastrier

Very nice. We were actually in some hot springs that outlet into the river, and only spent a few seconds in the actual (ice cold) rio grande. - Robin Barooah from email

Sometimes I feel like I only have one left. - Jonathan Le Plastrier from Bookmarklet

That's weird, I'll be busy those nights as well. - Jonathan Le Plastrier

sad couple of series for SoCal, baseball is officially over until 2010. - David Smith from IM

There's always next year. - Jonathan Le Plastrier from iPhone

Was that on a boat? - Michael

In which case I sure hope they played http://www.youtube.com/watch... at the reception. - Michael

No boat, just a crazy beach house with an amazing view. Has to be called the best ever when it is your sister's. - Jonathan Le Plastrier from iPhone

I couldn't tell if Ben Linus was driving. - Jonathan Le Plastrier from iPhone

Maybe you will hope for an ANA/Phillies series now. - Jonathan Le Plastrier from iPhone

The Angels were dead to me once they became LAA for the larger media market. - Ana

that's good, because they are not likely to make it through tomorrow... - Bren -- Not Grinchy

oh yeah youre AT the game! - David Smith from IM

Your windscreen includes a free grad filter... - Antosh

Hehe, I think that's the sun screen filter that's built into the window. That C130 flying overhead is not included with the car though. - Jonathan Le Plastrier

Ten thousand feet. Fog looks a lot better from above than in The City. Looks like that engine has an afterburner. - Jonathan Le Plastrier

When we finally started our approach above LA, all I could see through the light cloud cover was soupy black and the yellow sea of street lights. And then looming on the horizon were glowing green jewels, the baseball diamonds. America's pastime indeed. - Jonathan Le Plastrier

You are a sneaky man Michael. I seem to be doing the same thing then that I am doing now, watching the Angels. - Jonathan Le Plastrier

Damn, I had to pee halfway through.... - Michael Muller

It is a bummer that Flickr videos do not appear as videos on FF. So long as I got your attention Michael, I'm happy! - Jonathan Le Plastrier

I think it is a bit of stretch to call this a double steal of 3rd and home, but a crazy play nonetheless. Morales skipping over the slide and poking at the plate was quite a move. - Jonathan Le Plastrier from Bookmarklet

Being an A's fan is a lot like being a Cal Bears fan. Ugh. - Louis Gray

"Fly, fly, fly away. I don't believe it, I see the light!" That was insane. Clearly Hud and the Angels radio guys need to start doing this. Thanks for the link JB. - Jonathan Le Plastrier

Video : http://mlb.mlb.com/media... So I guess he was wrong about what deck, but he got the direction right. - Jonathan Le Plastrier

You'll be expelled from school if you're not careful. - Robin Barooah

Terminating dust with extreme prejudice! - Mo Kargas

I headshotted the dust bunnies. - Jonathan Le Plastrier from iPhone

Enjoyed the image. - Jonathan Le Plastrier from Bookmarklet

Love them Jelly Rats. I especially like the color of the packaging. - Jonathan Le Plastrier

Good ol' Sosh. - Jonathan Le Plastrier from Bookmarklet

"MIAMI—In a sudden end to a trying year, the Mets' Jeff Francoeur lined into a rare centuple play against the Florida Marlins Wednesday, which by rule cut New York's season short. "I hit it on the screws, but it just happened to be in a spot where they could turn a hundred," said Francoeur, who watched helplessly as Marlins second baseman Dan Uggla tagged everyone in the Mets dugout before heading into the clubhouse and tagging both equipment manager Charlie Samuels and physical therapist John Zajac." - Jonathan Le Plastrier from Bookmarklet

So Hud jinxed it? - sara

He did indeed. He should know better. - Jonathan Le Plastrier

"Like a glove." - Jonathan Le Plastrier from Bookmarklet

He didn't touch down until the last third of the runway. You gotta know when to call it and just do a go 'round. - Kevin Fox

I approve of the soundtrack choice :) (EDIT: no soundtrack! iTunes was playing "Carry On My Wayward Son" at the same time, which I found quite appropriate) - Tudor Bosman

"The Springfield Cardinals closed out the regular season with a 3-2 victory over the Arkansas Travelers on Labor Day afternoon. The victory was highlighted by a rarely-seen double play at home plate. The double play occurred in the 7th inning. Coby Smith of Arkansas lined an extra base hit to right-centerfield. Arkansas attempted to score a pair of runners on the play but the Springfield Cardinals made a perfect set of relay throws and the runners, Hainle Statia and Peter Bourgos, were tagged out at the plate by Cardinals catcher Steven Hill." - Jonathan Le Plastrier

That icon I set worked out quite well when doing the OS upgrade. - Jonathan Le Plastrier
