Rumor has it that one of the Olsen twins just walked down the hallway. Sadly, I didn't see anything.

Well done

This is old and a bit gross, but so well executed that I had to share it with everyone. This was taken a couple a weeks ago at dba on 1st Ave.

It was the darndest thing

I somehow wound up driving a cop car on the elevated tracks in GTA4. As I was looking at the map, the train came and knocked me into this position. It was pretty amazing.

Am I the only one who wants a 'leave the door open' button in GTA4 so I can keep listening to the radio while I'm doing... things?

This is amazing. Nice work.

Fireworks in Chinatown

A barrel of fireworks that had already been set off.

Where did you come from?

Since last night, around midnight, I’ve had a huge influx of people signing up for the grablr beta. Grablr is a side project of mine which does some fancy things, including powering a couple of neato web sites, such as my own.

I’m super nosy and google analytics is super delayed, so if you are one of the people who discovered it overnight, let me know how you found it. A free can of Turtle Wax goes to anyone that answers.

PS. If you don’t know my email address, tedroden at gmail should do the trick.

Help is on the way

I sure hope so.

Razors in Muffin Give NYU Student a Close Shave

2008_04_rzmuffin.jpg"About halfway through, I bit in and felt something hard and crunchy." That’s what NYU senior Benjamin Jarosch declared after eating part of a found muffin, and he wasn’t talking about a walnut: his innocuous-looking blueberry muffin was stuffed with three razorblades. Jarosch and his buddies had discovered the muffin, along with four others, wrapped in tin foil, upon arriving in the classroom.

It seems they were left over from a previous class and were "props" used by a student to demonstrate "ideas of absurdism and randomness." Professor Heidi White forgot to discard the muffins when class was dismissed, and the professor for the next class knew nothing about the muffin's sharp surprise.

Jarosch’s muffin was the only one with razorblades, and despite eating half of it before noticing anything unusual, he survived uninjured. “I spit them out before they cut. It could have been a lot worse, there's no doubt about it," Jarosch told the Sun.

He found a muffin and just started eating it? What do you expect?

I feel like it's the night before Christmas but Casey's family exchanges their good presents early, just to taunt me via Xbox live

I was trying to download a file with a program called Transmit. The error it gives me is “Couldn’t get remote handle.”

It’s actually trying to tell me, “You don’t have permission to download this file.”

I thought this was a particularly bad message.
