Floppy disk on the train tracks.

I found this 3.5″ floppy disk on the ground while exploring a section of disused railroad track running through an industrial park.

Update (December 2010): These tracks have since been ripped out and paved over with concrete as a pedestrian walkway to the Tustin Metrolink station.

Just discovered Butterfly Boucher is doing a show in LA at the Troubador tonight (with Ten Out of Tenn). Sadly, it’s too late to plan on going.

There’s something odd about this offer for magazine subscriptions.

Magazine offers: Maxim, Cosmopolitan, Playboy, Newsweek...exclusively for students and educators

They just don’t seem like a good fit for a student and teacher discount. Newsweek maybe, but…Maxim? Cosmo? Playboy?

Spam from Elvira

In the spamtraps, I found a message from “Elvira” telling me, “It’s awful.” Now I’m waiting for “Tom” and “Crow” to tell me, “It’s terrible.”

We’ve wrapped up Movie Marquee Week, but here’s one last photo in the same style: a stack of DVDs at the local Borders.

Movie Marquee: Star Wars Disaster Movie

Is that the one in which millions of voices suddenly cry out in terror, and are suddenly silenced?

Battlestar Galactica Cake
BSG Cake – Angled, originally uploaded by alenxa.

For last night’s BSG finale, Katie made a cake in the form of the Battlestar Galactica itself! More photos and making-of tidbits in the Battlestar Galacticake set.

And yes, it tasted good too!
