soapbox

It’s hard to believe that it’s that time again.

The OC starts tomorrow!

I think I’m going to have to order one. Sweet.

I have to confess that I really like the Starbuck’s Doubleshot ‘Hank’ commercial. It’s silly, unrealistic, and I don’t use caffeine, but the idea is still pretty cool.

If you search for it, it’s called “Bleachers”, or here’s a direct download link, or if that doesn’t work, try here.

sorry for the weak link-post, especially when it’s from the NYT, but this caught my eye:

… the Bush team’s philosophy since 9/11 has been: “We’re at war. Let’s party.”

Well, the party is over. If Mr. Bush learns the lessons of Katrina, he has a chance to replace his 9/11 mandate with something new and relevant. If that happens, Katrina will have destroyed New Orleans, but helped to restore America. If Mr. Bush goes back to his politics as usual, he’ll be thwarted at every turn. Katrina will have destroyed a city and a presidency.

Well, it ain’t really mesoscopic, but the newest iteration on the iPod looks pretty slick.

Imagine that: someone other than Nathaniel made the first post about a new thingamajig from Apple.

Go figure
