As always, you can follow all my Twittering over here.

For now, here are some recent highlights to start your week:

  • Best Buy sent me a coupon that might be a $5 winner or a $5,000 winner. Odds are, the employee will snatch it from me, giggle, and gimme 0
  • Having a TalkShoe account does not make you an interesting podcaster. It’s likely the inverse, actually.
  • Tallest waste of ad dollars this holiday season? Nintendo advertising the Wii – the gift nobody can keep in stock. (A couple of days later, this story sprung up.)
  • Remember Microsoft’s Origami Tablet PC? That’s OK, the rest of us had forgotten about it, too.
  • With all of the negative Leopard/Vista publicity, isn’t this the perfect time for the Amiga OS to rise triumphant? Nah. . .
  • What’s the 2007 equivalent of “Be kind. Rewind.”? “Return your Netflix DVD quickly.”?
  • Canon XTI now below $600 at Amazon. ::drool::
  • Next door neighbors are arguing amongst themselves again. “I didn’t mean to throw the dog,” the daughter just said. Uh oh.
    He says the step-daughter is “taking it out on the dog.” This is a 250 lb man defending a 10 pound purse-sized pup.
  • Entertaining Trident Original Flavor is God’s Gum.
  • I know what I’m getting for Christmas and that doesn’t bother me. I’m an old man.
  • Do you think sit-com writers hear laugh tracks after everything they say?
  • CompUSA is officially closing all stores. They all closed over here months ago.
  • EEE or OLPC? If you understood that question, you might be a geek. . .
  • At the beginning of each week, I have too many podcasts. By Thursday, I’m digging deep for ANYTHING. ::sigh::
  • I found the music I keep hearing as background music in other podcasts – it’s built into Garageband. UGH
