It was one month ago today that I moved in here. Seems longer somehow.
- Are these blink-powered night vision contact lenses for real? Well, the design has been done, and if you’re willing to smear magentic paste on your eyelids, I guess it might work, but there probably isn’t going to be anyone selling them real soon. [fark!]
- Here’s a handy list of Ten Mistakes Writers Don’t See (But Can Easily Fix When They Do) . It’s worth looking at periodically in an attempt to improve my writing. [holy schmoly]
- 532 More Suits Filed Vs. Music Downloaders by the RIAA. An interesting nugget in the story is that their average settlement so far has been $3000 per person they’ve sued. [fark!]
- Study confirms sleep essential for creativity, which maybe explains why I’ve been a little grouchier than usual lately. I’ve been averaging six hours a night instead of eight, and I haven’t been getting my mid-afternoon naps, either. Not sure what exactly I can do about it, though. I’m just waking up too early, and I don’t seem to go back to sleep if I stay in bed. [boing boing]
- Bush wants Patriot Act renewed, and the Democratic candidates seem to be relatively happy with it, too. Bad politicians! No vote! [scripting]
- I’m having a house-warming party on Saturday, January 31 (a week from tomorrow). If you don’t receive an invitation via email sometime today (I’ll be working on the email after I post this), and you’d like to show up at a swell party in Minneapolis, drop me a note and I’ll send you the details. Update: I’ve sent the invites. If you haven’t gotten one via email, it probably means I’ve had a brain-spasm and forgotten you, or don’t have your email address, so send that note. I also sent out a handful of invites via snail-mail.
