“Groovy Motherfucker”

*sigh*

The new Yelp iPhone app has snuck in a nifty "Augmented Reality" view. This shot is taken from out of the window at Slide.

Watching the Yanks take batting practice.

The true symbol of democracy in America -- The smug satisfaction of getting to wear the elusive "I Voted" sticker.

It was the only reason I bothered voting, to be honest.

The seven sides(!) of the ballot, filled out and ready to be deposited in the ballot box.

This sample ballot shows how much crap I had to vote on after making my presidential selection.

There were about 40 people in front of me waiting to cast early ballots.

One problem with OAuth and similar authentication systems -- When the browser is embedded in the application (as in this case with AirMe, but I also saw it in Exposure) with no URL visible, you have no idea if you're giving your username and password to Yahoo, or to some phisher.

The game gets halted for 90 minutes. Thankfully, the tarp came off and the Sox won 6-4.

Sold-out Sox/Yankees match at Yankee Stadium. Joy & I wanted to visit here at least once before the Yanks move next door to... Yankee Stadium

The "Free Tibet" and "Free Darfur" groups were protesting the torch, but a visibly larger group of Chinese supporters were protesting the protesters.

And in the end, the torch didn't come anywhere near us!

My Chumby, powered-up, and making my life approximately 65% better by displaying a live feed from the San Diego Zoo Pandacam.

I believe it can perform other tasks too, but who cares? PANDAS!

Don't you dare try and steal it from him, or he'll viciously roll his eyes, yawn and ignore you.

On the flight back from San Diego, a mother and her daughter sat next to me. I feared a 6-hour chunk of screaming wean, but the kid was surprisingly quiet, watching her Barney DVDs and reading her Curious George books.

This is a picture she drew of me. (Actually, the mother drew the head and body, and the girl added the glasses, beard and baseball cap) A pretty decent likeness!

Shot from the bar at the top of the Hyatt. San Diego really has the most dull featureless skyline!

A house near us has just gone up for sale, and apparently there's an AM transmitter so you can hear all about it without having to ring the doorbell.

Of course, the bad man in me wants to try to broadcast "Metal Machine Music" on that frequency at a higher power.

They're currently asking about $50k more than the Zillow Zestimate. Curious to see how this plays out with regards to Zillow's estimates.

Someone's knocked out a last.fm player for the TiVo HME platform. Works pretty well too. If you've got a Series 2 TiVo hooked up to your home network, follow the instructions at apps.tv to give it a try.
