Homegrown: The Car " He takes a few steps past the trunk of the car and turns to face it. He stares intently, first at the car and then at the key fob held carefully in his right hand. I'm not close enough to see much of it, but I can imagine the buttons (one red) with their cheerful universal iconography." 10:54:30 PM | permalink | comment [] |

Remember waiting for the latest issue of Wired and then devouring it in a couple hours? I was in Boulder (yes, that Boulder dahling) when I bought my first, after seeing a reference to it in the Globe. What a rush those days were! Browsing with NCSA Mosaic, learning vi on MachTen, trying to make httpd behave on BSDI. And of course there was Aretha, without which you wouldn't be reading this. Whoa. 10:00:35 AM | permalink | comment [] |

Oh he's a bloggerjack and he's OK, he blogs all night and he blogs all day. This is a terrific idea. Every bit as good as it was when I heard about it last week from SIT ;-) Props to the people of Salon (whose banner I've preserved in this new theme) and UserLand. 9:32:18 AM | permalink | comment [] |
