I never use Priceline for a rental car. I use Hotwire and I love it.
What do you love about it? (I've never gotten a rental car from Priceline OR Hotwire, so I'm trying to figure out the best option for bidding on a rental car. I've used Priceline for hotels -- but not the Name Your Own Price, since I wanted a specific hotel -- and generally been happy with the rates.)
In more cheerful news, this is one of the projects I've been working on over the past few years. I've been coordinating, as my organization owns the property. this is a great gallery of photos.
When I get too pissed off about the job situation, I need to remember that.
Dang, Chairface Chippendale was a hack.
I dread the possibility of controlled nuclear fusion and petajoule laser technology being combined in Donald Trump's lifetime. Imagine a billboard that everyone can see at night.

There was a company that wanted to sell billboards in space. They were simultaneously telling potential customers how everybody would be able to see their space billboard and telling everybody else the billboards would not be that noticeable.
The project died, probably because it was both extremely expensive and extremely stupid.
I think it's unlikely I'm having the best years of my life right now, but I don't see any reason they couldn't start next week...I've liked pretty much all of my life except the parts with the distracting pain, so we'll see.
I'm driving a couple of hours north to catch the annular eclipse. Probably doing the pinhole thing to see it, is that effective for annular? I think I've only seen partials before.
We are way out of the zone, sadly, for the eclipse. But! I should look up whether the local observatory has any events this summer.
EDIT: They do! And they are awesome!
Cool sculpture.
Those
are
cool. I love the Schwinn Pigeon.
