Next stop, Augusta!  
Fellow City o' Ypsi blogger Mark Maynard has an interesting piece on the annexation of Ypsi township:

I, personally, am entirely in favor of this. We in the city get to benefit from a larger tax base and an influx of transplanted southern hospitality. The township gets all the hipster smugness it can handle. It's a win-win situation here, people.

I want, so badly, to cover this:

I'm happy Obama won the nomination, but...  
...I'm really pissed Rory Gilmore still has a job.

Fuck you, Microsoft and Creative Labs!  
Thanks for not working together. Turns out my SoundBlaster Live 5.1 isn't compatible with Vista. You both can suck a fat one. Now I have to use the shittastic integrated card on my motherboard.

A slightly bigger version of the pic:

I'm in the middle-rightish part of the picture, sort of in the background, wearing a baseball hat, and scribbling on a notepad.

Should have waited to come back...  
Hearst's DC bureau just started renting space in my old office.

If I'd stuck around a few more months, I'd spend every day just a few cubicles away from Helen Thomas.

Dammit!

Really?  
According to Newsweek, a Cambridge study has found a link between profits and testosterone.

This begs the question: Since high testosterone is related to baldness, where the fuck is all my money?!?!?

More shit I didn't realize when I was a kid...  
Mike Tyson's Punch Out is a horrifically racist video game. It's really quite terrible.

That being said, I'm going to continue playing it.

Thank you, Sad Kermit  
For taking the most disturbing suicide scene I've ever seen and making it ridiculously funny.
