The most sexist book club of them all… and I happen to belong to the “chicks aren’t as awesome as dudes bi-monthly paperback exchange.”

The most sexist direct mail campaign ever

Yesterday when I opened my mailbox, I pulled out two catalogs for the same book of the month club. One addressed to me and the other to my lady. Sure, it's strange that we got on a book of the month club mailing list, but that isn't the strangest part. These catalogues are actually directed to "men" and "women" separately.

While men get invited to "where a smart reader belongs," women get options for "Love & Looks," "Style & Sex," and "Fabulous Fun!"

Stay classy Double Day.

My Latest Short Photo

Or is it short video? As far as I know, it's not a "long video." Could someone help me clear this up?

cool guy - Google Image Search

rickyv:

Jake Hurwitz just pointed out that he appears when you Google Image Search “cool guy.”

That’s cool. But if you do an image search for “small nyc apartments,” mine is the first result.

I’ve arrived!

We played credit card roulette at lunch. I lost! (Which means I didn't have to pay)

I am stalking Ted Roden

I realized that all the information I collect about myself would make it really easy to track my every movement online. So I’m opening it to everyone.

having just stared into Ted's pearly eyes over lunch - I can say that there is no sign of pink eye.

Usually cutting the eye can do that to it.

A new tedroden.com

I'm not ready to launch it, but I'm also not ready to keep it a secret any longer. So I'm just going to do it: I'm relaunching my website without finishing it.

tedroden.com is the new site, it's powered by a little thing called grablr.com. If you want my old site, it's now located at blog.tedroden.com.

That is all.

This is a fantastic picture.

Patrick makes the most amazing things.

The google appengine stuff is so impressive. Flat out amazing.

I like your new site and this photo is not unflattering at all. That lamp looks great.

Cubs are showing why they're the cubs: score 6 runs in one inning, then allow 5 in the next... so far.
