As with a low sucking sound it slowly disappeared again, Starbuck still gazing at the agitated waters where it had sunk, with a wild voice exclaimed—“Almost rather I had seen Moby Dick and fought him, than to have seen thee, thou white ghost!”
      “What was it, Sir?” said Flask.
      “The great live squid, which, they say, few whale-ships ever beheld and returned to their ports to tell of it.”

Moby-Dick, 1851

Guys, FURL sucks. It has sucked for years, and I'm sorry I've been using it. I have switched over to delicious; I would have done this much sooner, but they made it really difficult the last time I tried.


4-21-08  Archives
Uhmm, apparently archives haven't really been working since late 2006. THANX for the heads up guys! They are temporarily fixed, and will stay temporarily fixed until I migrate to new software/layout. I have said some hilarious things in the last 7 years, that future generations will feel lucky I preserved. Go check them out.

Woah, it's been 3 years since the last news update! Fuzzysquid now has a webclips icon for your iPhone! It'll automagically show up when you add FS to your home screen. Atom and RSS feeds have been available for a few years now, but I never made special mention of it.

Since it seems to be popular, and it's been linked in a lot of different places besides here, I've decided to post the LJ Images page. At least in the news, at least for now. It's also getting some Google ads because you LiveJournal people are sucking up all my bandwidth (35% for that one page!)

Check out what I've been browsing: FURL.net bookmark archive. Not much commentary, relevance, or sequitur—but it's what's keeping this blog from turning into a meme dumpster.

andy, sam and magnani and i went to the mini dealership yesterday afternoon. ok. what the crap. the dealerships in manhattan and new jersey wouldn't even let you take a look without an appointment. the four of us went in looked around for 15 minutes before the guy came over to say hello. can we test drive the S? he handed us the keys. we were dumbfounded. he didn't ask for anyone's license, or a deposit. we slowly started moving towards the door, and we realized he had no intention of coming with us...! it was like being set loose in a candy store. my god, i don't think i've had this much fun in the last 6 months. i should say however, that given the opportunity to play with someone else's toy, you do things... you wouldn't ever do on your own car. if you wanted it to last more than 10K miles, that is. we took it out around schenley, on the winding roads. there was one turn joe took really hard at 45 mph that made us all scream like little girls. imagine 4 grown men racing around in a sky blue clown car with stupid grins. we couldn't figure out if people were smiling in the "groovy man" or the "those guys are buffoons" way. we took 45 mins. and added 20 miles to the car. we had to take it around the block (slowly) a few times before returning it, to get rid of the burnt rubber smell. if you're thinking about picking one up, i heartily recommend the Cooper S. it's not the fastest ride, but the handling is choice. the most fun car in it's price class, for sure.
