Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I was just thinking what Jon said when I looked at that list. Totally dominated the space for several years != fail, even if you are trying to write the 80 millionth end-of-decade top-int list.

Hey, it looks like Kindle has launched its loaner program according to Lifehacker.

Because books.

The cat must have stepped on my laptop keyboard while the Gmail tab was open, because now it's all bigger (the fonts), but none of the other tabs are. Any idea how I change it back?
