Well done
It was the darndest thing
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.
Razors in Muffin Give NYU Student a Close Shave
"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 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.
