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.


1-14-05  LJ images
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!)


4-02-04  FURL
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.

My mom ran into Mrs. T today, who asked about me. I didn't even know she knew me. So mom caught her up, told her I am in California now, and then asked about her daughter, who I had gone to junior high and high school with. Mrs. T began crying, and explained that she was killed on Sept. 11th. I don't know, I assumed everyone who knew her already knew. I didn't know my parents knew hers, even just casually. But it also makes me realize how much I've let or made myself forget, an entire person. I definitely wasn't close to her, not nearly as some others were. But. I also think about how we lost touch, and the last time, the last words. In college, she asked how I was. Briefly, fleeting. There would be time for more later.

My dad called me today, and my mom twice. I haven't talked to them in a while. They wanted to know if I was ok.

Add. See, I'm really really good at avoiding things. I don't think anyone has seen LESS Sept. 11th footage than me. There are so many holes in my memory, I am not sure what I withheld from my folks, or myself.
