I believe that is meant to say “fuel”
but that's not what I saw when it caught my eye in the supermarket. This is what happens when your designer doesn't give a, ahem, "fuel".

Fielding Has a Posse
New laptop sticker, swiped from Citizen Space. Seems appropriate since my role at Current is making things RESTful. (BTW, if anyone wants a Current TV sticker, ping me)

This’ll make an AMAZING fort later
In Somerville, we had a three-floor house with basement. Now we have a one storey apartment. We used to have two offices and a spare room, now we have a combination office/spare room. Which will also hold my clothes, since we've got a smaller bedroom too.
In unrelated news, we'll be renting a storage locker shortly.

PuzzleManiak
Great puzzle collection for the (jailbrokened) iPhone. Some are a bit fiddly to play with your finger as stylus, but overall they’re a lot of fun.

I hadn’t thought of this: Apple may have said they’ll let you give away apps for free on the iPhone Apps store, but why not charge a couple of bucks? Your apps will still be impulse-downloads, and you might make some serious cash.

ProClip Mounting System
Gadget holders for your car. They come in two parts: a mount specifically designed for your car’s dashboard, and a holder designed for the gadget. I got and installed the 2001 Civic mount and the iPhone holder, and it’s a big improvement over my previous cup-holder-iPod-holster set-up.
