Wow. This is a pretty impressive review of some Fine Russian Engineering: the Volga V12 Coupe. Sadly out of my price range at about half a million bucks.
Stores report brisk riot T-shirt sales. Sigh. Not what we want Dinkytown to be known for.
AT&T offers local service in the Twin Cities. I’ll have to check on the details, but if they offer DSL as part of the deal…
“Green” apartments snuggle between factory and steam plant talks about the Stone Arch Apartments, build by Steve Minn. When Jim and I were walking to the ballgame last Wednesday, we walked past them. I still don’t really like the look of the building, but it’s getting closer to done, and looks less hideous. The article’s long and pretty complimentary, but I think it’s worth reading if you’re in the neighborhood. The biggest disagreement I have with the article is that I think these apartments will be the thing to chase Metal-Matic out of the neighborhood.
UK bans spam messages, but it’s Italy that has the harshest penalties, including jail time. [fark!]
