juggling servers
Lost a couple of posts and comments due to some server juggling I'm doing over here ... Not to worry. All is well.

fair and balanced misdis
Fox News Wednesday referred to Michelle Obama as 'Obama's Baby Mama'. Fwiw a "Baby's Mama" is a slur referring to a girlfriend with children, not a wife. When you misuse slang in an attempt to dis you just end up looking like a tool.

What Remains
There is something between a Tweet and a Blog. It is less than an essay and more than one hundred forty characters. Most things written by non-writers fall here. Stand still while everyone else takes a step backward if you too object to squeezing these things out. Let's reclaim 'blog entry' and push out that which passes as a 'blog entry' now to a realm into some other place where it belongs.
sit down, have a cup of me
I'm totally going to start blogging again any day now.
Stalin. Really?
From yesterday's Little Green Footballs:
The official Barack Obama campaign web site has quietly airbrushed away any mention of Rev. Jeremiah Wright, with no statement or explanation. He was formerly the very first person listed on Obama’s “Testimonials” page: Pastor Wright Erased From Obama’s Website.Stalin ain’t got nothin’ on the “progressive” wing of the Democratic Party.
Estimates for the death toll under Stalin's regime start in the 3 million person range.

innotek's business plan?
As I fired up my SLED Virtual Box just now I remembered what a pain it was to try to find a correctly licensed version of VMWare through our internal corporate shares and the VMWare website. Such a pain in fact that I quit trying after half an hour and downloaded Virtual Box instead. Half an hour later I was getting work done. Virtual Box is fast and free [note: unpaid and unsolicited product endorsement] and because it's free I wondered to myself, "How does Innotek (the makers of Virtual Box) make their money?".
Oh. That's how.
SANTA CLARA, CA February 12, 2008 Sun Microsystems, Inc. (NASDAQ: JAVA) today announced that it has entered into a stock purchase agreement to acquire innotek, the provider of the leading edge, open source virtualization software called VirtualBox. By enabling developers to more efficiently build, test and run applications on multiple platforms, VirtualBox will extend the Sun xVM platform onto the desktop and strengthen Sun's leadership in the virtualization market. This software is available for all major operating systems at www.virtualbox.org and www.openxvm.org.(source)
Oh. That's how.
