• Commented on New black spot on Jupiter -- from comet, asteroid?
  @#1 My thoughts exactly, it's happening a year early!...
• Commented on Voyageur, a storied guitar made from legends
  It's not a "marketing stunt" or about the money (apparently the guy is still in debt from putting this thing together), but it's still pretty pointless. It all seems like a rather clumsy attempt to mooch off the cultural significance...
• Commented on The "Whatever" Economy
  Can I rent the top half of the space?...
• Commented on Fine art with party hats photoshopping contest
  Do you have some deal where you blog every single photoshop thread they do? It gets kinda old....
• Commented on Sketch comedy troupe proposes a EULA for friendship
  I was surprised Desert Bus didn't show up on boingboing. Maybe next year....

• Commented on Daft Punk designer toys

• Commented on <i>Sesame Street</i> does Feist's iPod Nano song
  This is the kind of the thing where I'm glad I don't have a TV. I completely missed out on seeing the Apple ads, so I wouldn't even have known this song was "spoiled" even people hadn't kept telling me...
• Commented on Vintage sexist coffee TV commercial
  Is it just me or does that guy look slightly like Bruch McCullough?...
• Commented on Laptops designed by 7-year-olds
  It's also interesting how several kids put a "10" key in with the numbers -- sometimes instead of a zero key. It's easy to forget how much "basic" math kids haven't really picked up yet at that age....
• Commented on Laptops designed by 7-year-olds
  I want a "MATH BOTTON"....
• Commented on Droid Sans Mono, a sweet monospace font
  I just tried it in jEdit, and the first thing I noticed was the 0/0 problem. Argh! It's otherwise very nice looking. l,I,1 are all easily distinguishable, which makes the 0,O problem all the more annoying....
• Commented on Steampunk Dalek!
  Aren't Daleks pretty steampunk already?...
