That Wired article was retarded in multiple ways. Among other things, they have a single source who (1) doesn't actually make porn; (2) licenses porn to mobile phones and therefore overcomes the exact same issues that are identified for making porn available on iPods and (3) admits that his clients are studying ways to produce porn for the iPod --and they headline it "no porn for you"!

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

When Hec's older sister was a baby and he was yet to be born, his parents used to plant her with a sitter at the Travis AFB and go to a restaurant/nightclub in San Francisco that you could only enter by sliding down a slide.
I really want to start saving now and, upon Zmayhem's retirement, rent a corner building in North Beach and reopen that slidey club.

Re Fitzmas:
My boss is away for the rest of this week at outreach clinics up in the wilds of Humboldt and Mendocino. His last words to me yesterday evening were, "I won't have any hospital server or internet access tomorrow in Ukiah, so hold all my calls if I need to review the patient's records first, and be sure to page me as soon as there's an indictment."
be sure to page me as soon as there's an indictment."
Heh.
Unfortunately, no announcement today (although the indicted folks supposedly have been notified).
eta: Oh, the "no announcement today" is also a rumor.
where did you see that Tommy?
I totally want to go to a slidey restaurant now. I love slides!
I really really wish I didn't have a midterm at 6 and homework due at 8. Really a lot.
