OK, so I’m not the only one who is totally weirded by Mr. Peanut.
TImothy McSweeney collects fictional monologues, and in this one, everyone’s favorite legume sheds his British affectations.. Well, some of them.

Now on the way home from Ole Miss, via Memphis and Houston. It was a great trip from the work perspective, giving me a chance to talk to Ole Miss business and computer science students about directions in software, privacy, security and trust, and how their work will shape user experiences in the next [...]

I have often wondered why it’s impossible to find a good bagel west of Pittsburgh. Some argue it’s the water, and that only the Eastern seaboard has appropriate quantities of bacteria and minerals in the water to make a good, pluchy bagel (If you need a definition of pluchy, imagine a really chubby baby’s [...]

The Old Testament is accompanied by sufficient volumes of discussion, debate, dialogue, dissection, dissent, and rabbinic dissin’ to make Jay-Z blush: It’s the Talmud, [...]

If you’re wondering, it’s a play on Jeph Jacques’ Questionable Content comic [...]

I’m finally getting around to spicing up (pun intended) my blog with some graphics that look like they’re more advanced than a 2nd grader’s failed art project. I never much made it past stick figures (and my attempt at business graphics clearly demonstrates this), however, I have friends who are starving artists and know [...]

Pork roll has a new friend in the ranks of the Foodie Blog Roll. I discovered this consumption-oriented consumer of blog content while looking for references to National Cupcake Day in various flavors, and decided to join. You’ll see the update list in the widget on the right; you’ll find this [...]

I’ve been to Japan twice, and both times have been experiences in new food textures, tastes and presentations. My first trip was in 1992 and earned me the nickname bento-san, literally, “Mr. Box Lunch.” The guys from Nihon Sun hosting me discovered that I loved the equivalent of New York City hot [...]
