I figured out how to connect my iPod at work without iTunes deleting all my music: hold Shift and Control while connecting the iPod. Obviously.

I can’t find this jewel anywhere in the Apple documentation. iLife = iCrap.

Tonight I saw the most impressive display of road barrier blinkenlights I have ever seen. Sawhorses (not barrels) allow greater blinkenlight density. In total I’d guess there were about 100 sawhorses in a 10′ by 10′ area, nearly all of them with operational blinkenlights.

School Won’t Stop Playing 1996 Hanson Song “MMMBop” Until Students Give Enough to Katrina Relief.

This would definitely encourage me to be generous.

I’ve changed “LARG gas” to be the highest price I’ve seen in my day-to-day driving for regular gas. (Before it was premium gas).

The expensive stations that will get quoted in LARG gas are typically 10-20 cents more expensive than where I actually buy gas.

sanjosegasprices claims the national average gas price is now only one cent less than the California average price. I’d guess this is because California has some local refining capacity.
