Grantandamanda.com/wedding is taking form. Slowly.

I’ve been looking for an app like Menufela since I switched to mac-on-the-desktop three years ago.

All it does is hide the menubar and let it slide back in when the mouse is against it. Yes, just like having the task-bar set to ‘auto-hide’.

It costs five bucks.

This year has some tipping point potential to turn into total mob anarchy.

I hope that doesn’t happen - those of us that have been a few times (this will be my fourth crawl) need to keep the spirit of the crawl!

As mentioned in my notes of '04, Ropewalk Tavern has terrible security and Santa’s tend to drink free from the back bar. Last year it turned into Santa’s taking bottles of liquor too and police were called - no good.

Doctor Kevin Bernier, please pick up a red courtesy phone.

Via funsec: …the phishers get reeled.

That last one sounds a bit too much like illogical to me.

Beer is proof that God exists. Not just some higher power that loves you but the wishy-washy christian new testament post-modern interpretation God.

The author also has thoughts on Stephen King and other secular things. He’s a normal dude my age.

Hail Eris, I say.

A movie is being made telling the story of the the Battle of Thermopylae.

Go watch a trailer.

Amazing.

The Nine Inch Nails trailer music is a nice touch.

I’d love to see a Rome style series (which is excellent, do watch) documenting all of Greco-Persian wars, excluding the Trojan of course. I want to see Xerxes whip a river with a chain.

Hubris! 👮

[Negatron](http://www.mp3.com/tracks/4925547/dl_streams.html) == [Jack Burton](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0090728/)

My mind is blown. Seriously blown.

Negatron

Yeah, that Jack Burton.

You know what Jack Burton always says?

I think this is the only movie I’ve seen near the number of times I’ve seen Empire Strikes Back.

AWWW COME ON!!!

(amanda: oh wait, isn’t that the girl from Sex in the City?)

I was the only groomsman in Ben’s wedding on Saturday, making me the Best Man. He is off in Africa climbing both peaks of Mount Kilamanjaro for his honeymoon.

His Kilimanjaro team:

Before he left he threw up a few pics that guests have sent him.

Aaron performed the ceremony. The wedding was super cool and everything went smoothly. Thanks to everyone that helped!

Our friend Beth is now a Peace Corps volunteer in Togo, Africa. She gave us a list of things she can’t get locally which Amanda sent out earlier this week. The package had to go in a padded envelope and be under 16oz to prevent it from being too interesting to postal workers more likely to pilfer and steal than deliver the message.

Envelope contents:

• Seasoning mixes
• Taco mix
• Vasoline
• Listerine Breath-Strips
