Verizon’s former pitchman, Paul “Can you Hear Me Now” Marcarelli, has gone with Sprint. Verizon’s response was to concede that Sprint’s network probably is as good as Verizon’s was in 2002. Anyway, I miss the X-Files guy more.

Good news! The rent isn’t quite so damn high anymore. Actually it is, but it’s getting higher at a lower rate, and that’s something.

I love the space article (an oldie, but still).

Also, the thermodynamic equations for calories works well enough, but it’s a GIGO kind of problem.
With food, it’s garbage out no matter what you put in.
Sometimes it’s garbage with sweet corn, though.
I can’t say it ever occurred to me to check whether the corn was sweet.
