Bah, humbug. I must (te-)bow to to Broncos for getting out of the first round. I have a prediction for the Pats rematch, however.

As seen on Twitter... 'Seriously though, someone tried to tell me last week that "JavaScript is a Lisp." Also, Babylon 5 was a Star Trek.'

"Titanic" is coming back in 3D. I am assuming it will be amazing. Would James Cameron allow anything less? I could watch it with the sound off.

Modal dialogs - I wish they would teach in school to stay away from modal dialogs unless there is a benefit for the cost. i.e. they should not be the default.

I am at a Starbucks and they are playing a truly obnoxious remake of the Car's "Best Friend's Girf". I mean I cannot exit the store quickly enough. Losing my coffee...

One of my favorite subjot features is how it is a PDF reader, and so serves as a vehicle to comment on PDFs.

Students are being suspended for Tebowing in high school hallways. Safety concerns. In other news, a Colorado brewery introduces their Tebrew Sunday Sipper. On a personal note, I'd get drunk on Sunday too if I were a Bronco's fan.

I just have to keep an eye on the Netflix catalog. e.g. "Two Man Group" http://www.amazon.com/Colin-Brad-Two-Man-Group/... streams free on Netflix but streams for $3.99 on Amazon. I need a comparison/launching web site.

I don't know how to categorize Harry Shearer's Le Show, but I've been listening once per week for over 25 years. Give it a try... there's nothing quite like it. http://harryshearer.com/news/le_show/

The younger one has his first day of post-secondary education today at Portland State. He's got one class today and is hoping they hand out the syllabus and tell them class is dismissed. I advised him not to count on that. (I hope I am right.)
