After updating some links, the following dialogue occurred to me:
Sallah: Indy, why does the web… move?
Indiana: Give me the URL.
(The location looks like a Python script)
Indiana: Snakes. Why did it have to be snakes?
Sallah. ASP. Very dangerous. You go first.
(Actually, I have to credit Katie for the Python reference. The first and last lines just popped into my head, though.)
No photo, but we saw this sign on a bus:
HAPPY HOLIDAYS
NOT IN SERVICE
Hopefully not an omen…
The local Ralphs has been remodeling. New tiles, new signs, new carts, everything’s been rearranged—heck, they even have a new logo. So keep in mind that this isn’t a leftover sign, it’s brand new:
I’d say Dan Quayle left more of a mark on America than we might think.
We spotted this half-lit CompUSA sign a few nights ago:
I hope that doesn’t reflect the store’s contents or service!
I’ve been getting a lot of what Katie calls “concrete spam” (i.e. junk mail) from charities over the last few months. Eventually I’ll track down who sold my address. But this was an interesting one because they seem to think I’ve gone back to college:
What, did my evil psychic twin get a doctorate over the Internet?
I’ll have to look for this on other mailers and see if anyone else thinks I’m a professor. That may help track down one source.
I recently rented two of the Justice League DVDs. So far I’ve gotten through the opening 3-parter, “Secret Origins,” and the 2-part “Paradise Lost.” I have no idea how far into the series the second disc is.
A scene that stuck in my mind was the newly-formed League looking around their headquarters. As the heroes are deciding whether to join, the Flash remarks on its well-stocked kitchen and offers, “Iced mocha?” Wonder Woman tastes one and says, “Mmm, they don’t have anything like this on Themyscira. I’ll stay.” Aha! The way to an Amazon’s heart is through iced mochas!
So it was even more funny in “Paradise Lost” when the Flash started fantasizing about Paradise Island: “The beach, hundreds of women, and me, the first man they’ve seen in, well, ever. And what do I have with me? Iced mochas for everyone!”
Anyway, on to the review: It’s certainly better than I remember Superfriends being. It does still have a significant cheese factor at times, Continue reading
Rob Cockerham of Cockeyed.com (home of the fascinating How Much is Inside? series) noticed the same model showing up in a lot of his spam (often wearing the same dress). He collected the advertisements, and linked them together in what he calls An Unsolicited Commercial Love Story.
Since he first wrote it up, other people have spotted the same model on banner ads, MSN articles and even a kiosk at UCLA. Where will “Alicia” show up next?
Aren’t stock photos fun?
