...and the vegan's answer back. You better believe willingness to milk the bull will forgive any number of sins, including the death of her first-born, should she decide to breast feed.

Mountain Hardwear: Hammerhead 2
Gearin' up for the cross-country trip. Sold my marmot eclipse on craigslist, and ordered this awesome 2 person tent. It gets great reviews. Only down side is that it's a bit heavy, but for me car and canoe camping are for more likely activities than backpacking. There are a bunch of tents with even more mesh, but some privacy sounded like a good idea, and the 120° of mesh walls and ceiling (with the doors rolled away) offer a great view of the sky.

Golden Compass
Ok, I'm reading the book (well, listening to the audio book, which is aimed at kids but has radio show production value), so I guess now I'm obligated to throw my Dæmon into the ring. Do your worst.

Particletree Buttons
Rediscovering the Button Element
Finally, somebody tamed goddamned buttons in goddamned IE. The one that's been bugging me the most lately is the freakin' width problem this guy here solved: Button Width in IE - Revised.
A Brave Woman Scorned
The unjust campaign against Shaha Riza
Good to have a little reminder sometimes how one-sided and simplistic our media coverage is. I don't really care whether there was corruption here, what bugs me is the Mistress/Girlfriend thing. The whole "your relationship isn't valid unless you believe in our religious institution" thing is kinda frustrating. Our generation knows that marriage doesn't work, half our parents are divorced. Why is there this continued pressure to repeat our parents mistakes?

WordPress › Blog » WordPress 2.2
Last post from blogger? Probably not, but now that WordPress supports importing from "new" blogger it shouldn't be long before I get Cybil's business website moved over, followed by my own (assuming I can pull of a re-design). Hell, I'd do mine first if I was further along with the design. Problem is my site's really a network of sites, divinentd.com, nilsdevine.com, shalandar.com, wizardsduel.com, dragonduel.com, with several blogs and a couple image thumbnail feeds. Clearly I need to do some consolidation and organization of this heap of content. Some of the more esoteric corners of the site actually get a lot of traffic, like the MtG computer game download and the Richard Brautigan poetry. It'd be nice to provide these diverse audiences with some sort of context when they land here, but not overwhelm either like me current homepage.

Now there's a blast from the past. Design inspired Mr. Glass' trench in Unbreakable, with a touch of Matrix background noise. There are actually older posts, circa late 2000, I just wasn't linked to them via Directory of early blogger users via kottke.

Damn I hope I'm out of these braces in time for this trip. Eating in constant fear of popping a bracket does not sound like fun thousands of miles from my orthodontist.
This Roadtrip America website looks like it's going to be a handy one planning this trek.

Lolo's Extreme Cross-Country RV Trips
Lolo's Extreme Cross-Country RV Trips
Their 1999 trip looks cool, with stops concentrated on the west coast. We're east coast boys, so this side of the continent is the more exotic to us. Might like to go a little further north, perhaps skirt through Canada around the great lakes. But then again don't want to overlap with the band's trip last summer. I'll have to post a journal entry about the scheme behind this trip, so that anybody who happens to read this that I don't see on a daily basis knows what the fuck I'm talking about.

Rick Steves' blog is back up and running, for those of you caught by the travel bug. Looks like he started out in Italy and is a big fan (this was on of your potential starting points, right Jeff?)

YouTube - Bayeux Tapestry
YouTube - Bayeux Tapestry – my English History class started out with 1066. I'm a big fan of this early stuff, and remain interested up until guns were introduced, although I must admit some interest in early rifles, but mostly 'cause they took so long to load each shot was more significant. And yes, my interest in history is directly related to the weapons used at the time.
