I think I’m gonna try to record the best thing I read each day, at the end of the day. Because it’s a good way to document how I’ve been spending a significant portion of my time. I know I’m going to regret all this websurfing later, like the grasshopper that sang all summer, but maybe I can try to rationalize at least some of it away as quality time.
Anyway.
Unfortunately, the best thing I read today was an advert for the UCLA computer store, where I can get a 15″ MacBook Pro for a giant discount (more than the usual educational rate). As in, I can actually consider getting a silvery Mac notebook rather than a white one. I’ll probably end up holding off until next year anyway, but wow. That’s a nice discount.
And since people can’t see the ad unless they’re currently Bruins, today I’ll post something I read a few days ago that made me laugh out loud for, like, minutes, at least.
It was a comment in a Metafilter post about Bush’s “liebes-attacke auf Angela Merkel,” i.e., the unsolicited neck-rub he gave the German chancellor:
“Buster Bluth is running my country. Fantastic.”
