What the fuck, Illinois? Are you absolutely unable to have any governors who aren't major screwups?
That is all.

Re: Whole Foods purchase tonight.. and tough ecconomic times....
One of the terrible things about living in Manhattan is that Whole Foods is actually sort of reasonably priced compared to local monstrosities like Food Emporium and (vomit) Gristedes (/vomit). Additionally, for "dry" hippie goods--i.e. not produce--it's hard to beat their basic prices.

Multichannel FLAC demuxing?
Hey all, So to my great delight, I've been fooling around with that charming DVD Audio Explorer utility, and succeeded in ripping the MLP tracks from the "Rough Mix" DVDA. They ripped successfully and everything, but my poor understanding of the options available in DVDA Ripper meant that ...

Gays versus Mormons
So yeah, I know that African American turnout in CA was really a larger factor in passing Prop 8, but I couldn't be more pissed at the LDS church right now if I tried. In the words of Bill Maher: they already have their own state (and, in the spirit of Jon Stewart: it seems a bit odd that the Mormon...

Computing frustration
Hey all, So now that the crashing economy has forced me to dial back my plans of totally replacing my aging computer's innards, I've decided that a mere processor swap--to get the most out of my also-aging AM2 socket--is probably in order. To that end, I have been confronted with this conundrum: htt...

McCain seemed to start off strong, but lagged badly by the first half-hour. Town hall events are as Stephen Colbert described them: opportunities for the candidates to pretend to answer questions before using them as pretexts to launch into stump speeches. At least initially, McCain did a better job...

Some Michael Jackson in honor of the debate
So after an entire year of looking, I find the 258P disc of "Off the Wall" in Book-Off. Good news: it does seem to have the LP mix of "Rock With You," at least. Bad news: preemphasis (ugh!). The file below was put through WaveEmph (do I trust this program?) and was then normalize...
