"Before you get your Michael Jackson tramp stamp memorial tat, you should take a look at these. It's probably not a good idea" - Zach Landes from Bookmarklet
Holy crap! - Kittyburgers
I bet the person with the paedophile one got it before Jackson died...and now feels bad. - Zach Landes
I somehow doubt it. They probably just feel stupid that they have a tramp-stamp at all ... if now now, then certainly in later life. - Kittyburgers
Me, 8 AM July the 6th, roof of a carpark somewhere in East London.

1UP for use of "carpark". That's one of my favorite Britishisms. - Rochelle
lol. Could be worse: look at my co-conspirators! http://bit.ly/1xGLFy - Zach Landes
@rochelle... I didnt realize that was a britishism. I've been here too long! - Zach Landes
Ouch I hope it was worth it! - BEX
Zach, yup! In the US, it's either a parking lot or a parking garage. - Rochelle
I had forgotten - parking garage is definitely the term to use! holy crap. that's actually really scary. - Zach Landes
Zach, how long have you been there? Are you from the US originally? - Rochelle
I've been here 10 months. I don't really have any close American friends, though there were some in my course. So that might explain the terminology change...and yes, I'm from CA. - Zach Landes
That's the spirit! - Nia
I...had...the time of my life...and I owe it all to youuuuuuu

@londonfilmgeek that link is causing issues.
Detainees, Even if Acquitted, Might Not Go Free - WSJ.com - http://online.wsj.com/article...
"WASHINGTON -- The Obama administration said Tuesday it could continue to imprison non-U.S. citizens indefinitely even if they have been acquitted of terrorism charges by a U.S. military commission. Jeh Johnson, the Defense Department's chief lawyer, told the Senate Armed Services Committee that releasing a detainee who has been tried and found not guilty was a policy decision that officials would make based on their estimate of whether the prisoner posed a future threat." SICKENING - Zach Landes from Bookmarklet
I wonder if Obama really plans to restore due process of law? His legacy will be very much tainted if he allows this to continue. - Zach Landes
While everyone is so concerned with social media, I think the most exciting changes yet to come are in journalism and web-based applications

The Future of News: 'InvestigateWest?' - Poynter Online - Top Stories
"As American newspapers shrink and close and journalists look for ways to continue their work, you could say that the news business has moved into a phase of "rapid development," to borrow a term from software developers. Journalists are launching a series of start-ups, some short-lived, with different approaches to coverage, audience and funding. The process continues today as a group of former Seattle Post-Intelligencer journalists unveils InvestigateWest, a regional, nonprofit investigative news organization." - Zach Landes from Bookmarklet
All About Eating On the Go | Precision Nutrition - http://www.precisionnutrition.com/all-abo...
"Why eating well on the go is so important If we could come up with the perfect nutrition plan for you that included exactly what you needed to eat to reach your goals, you wouldn’t follow it. Don’t believe us? How often have you seen people diagnosed with lifestyle related disease who don’t take the necessary steps to improve their situation? They say they want to “eat better.” They see health professionals who tell them how to “eat better.” Yet they end up feeling guilty for not “eating better.”" - Zach Landes from Bookmarklet

Google Plans to Launch Operating System for PCs - WSJ.com
"Google Inc. is preparing to launch an operating system for personal computers, a direct assault on the turf of software giant Microsoft Corp., which has long dominated the market for software that runs PC applications. The Silicon Valley Internet giant announced the new move in a blog post late Tuesday night. It said the software, which will initially target low-end portable PCs called netbooks, would be based on its Chrome Web browser and available to consumers in the second-half of 2010." - Zach Landes from Bookmarklet

Set to invisible on skype? What are you hiding from? A specific person? Or is it about pretending to others that ur not addicted to the net?
I think I just went on a date.
:) What does this mean? Details. - Anika Malone
I bumped into a girl i've met at a party and seen here and there. A few hours later she sent me a message on facebook asking for help moving some suitcases to be followed by her buying me a beer. I accepted but told her I was on to her little plot and she had better watch where she put her hands ;) Anyway, real nice girl and cute, to boot. I think we'll have to have a repeat. Her: http://bit.ly/tyxlz - Zach Landes
That's...not a date... - Ben Parr
Eh, 2 hours alone + beer + chemistry is the reason I said "I think". I use the term in a broad sense to mean doing something with a female with a romantic tone. That tone may be explicit or found in the subtext. - Zach Landes
I'm watching Roddick vs. Federer. Great match - wish I'd bought a ticket!
@happygomarni how was it? details!
@shough610 which fingers?
What do you think of men wearing a ring (not a wedding band)? How about this one? http://ginx.com/-gIFvA
@e_dythe thanks :) he's gone :/
One of my best friends is leaving London tomorrow - forever. It's pretty tough not being depressed but better to have loved and lost...

What Went Wrong With Joost? - Om Malik - http://gigaom.com/2009...
What Went Wrong With Joost? - Om Malik
"Joost, a much-vaunted online video startup, today announced that it will offer a white-label video hosting platform, thus entering a crowded market littered with the carcasses of other failed video hosts. The company is also losing its famous chief executive, Mike Volpi, whom it’s replacing with Matt Zelesko, the current vice president of engineering. And it plans to cut a portion of its workforce — between about 70 of its remaining 90 employees, according to Advertising Age. It also shut down its office in the Netherlands. When I read about all the planned changes at the company earlier today, the first thought that crossed my mind was: Stick a fork in it; Joost is done." - Zach Landes from Bookmarklet

Hey, she's the daughter of a pastry chef. How can you go wrong? - Zach Landes from Bookmarklet
I am reviewing a colleague's paper on Chinese accounting systems for a workshop tomorrow. It appears as if the entire thing was translated directly from Chinese in babelfish. I am so lost.
Its going to be hard to avoid embarrassing one or both of us. I have to appear to understand and be critical of the paper, which will be difficult considering its illegible. But I don't want to slag her for language difficulties.. - Zach Landes
Today's thought: everything you can comprehend is a matter of degree.
