Now that this is gone, it should be “safe” to blog NPR’s History of the Hamburger. Ironically enough, this link comes via hotdogblog.
Superman, c. 1938
Action Comics #1, with the first-ever appearance of Superman.
How times have changed.
Oh, fine…
Seeing as how I can’t stay away, I’ve decided I’m not on hiatus. Rather, I’m on Reduced Blogging Frequency (RBF).
(Geez, I’m worse than a camgirl…)
Zend and Mushrooms
Two things I *heart* right now:
1. Portobello Mushrooms. Bursting with full, mushroomy flavor. Perfect in a Firehook Portobello sandwich with lettuce and mozzarella cheese.
2. Zend Studio 2.5. Rich and delicious, overflowing with savory PHP goodness. Full-control debugging and inbuilt PHP function tooltips add spice. Downside: doesn’t go well with PHP 4.2.2. Yet.
Where’s George?
I just got two “Where’s George?” dollars.
Update: Those of you looking for Wilfred, check out Where’s Willy?”

Weird Energy
I tried taking the cam to work. Hmmm, why do I look more handsome in the office? Must be the electromagnetic fields from all those servers. ^_^
I also skated down to the National Musem of American History (passing by a huge Falun Gong gathering at the Washington Monument) to get a few nice shots from the Information Age exhibit on the ground floor.
More soon. Must sleep now.

Blood for Manang Emilie
Friends in Manila, Rowster’s calling for help for their housekeeper, Manang Emilie. She badly needs blood, and at the time of this writing, there haven’t yet been enough donors. See Rowie’s blog for details. If you can give, please do; you’ll help save a life, and you’ll also meet a very good friend.
