Really, he never tells anybody that. Really. Thanks Cam for the link.

Imagine What This Guy Would Do With This Site
There’s some crazy that’s going through libraries in Utah that is meticulously editing swear words out of some of the “Murder, She Wrote” books. Quoting the story: “Swear words have been crossed out and replaced with milder words, like ‘darn,’ ‘gosh’ or ‘heck,’ written in black, purple, green and even pink ink.” Full Story.
What’s the Story Here?
Why the heck does mammals.org go to Apple’s web site? Thanks for my cousin Pat for pointing that out.
Just what Central Oregon needs
Another water-sucking, high-priced, yuppie-tourist attracting golf course. It will be built in the area in South-EastWest Bend burned to a crisp by the Awbrey Hall fire in 1990 — the area towards Mt. Bachelor. Thanks Rob for the tip.
My New 404 Error Page
Inspired by this blog post, I’ve decided to change my 404 error page from this typing version to this simple, funny bunny.
A Keyboard For Teenagers
I need to give one of these to my 17-year-old sister.
What’s in the 9/11 Report?
You’ve probably already heard about the 9/11 report that was just released. There are a few ways you can dive into the contents:
- You can buy a copy of the report
- You can download a copy of the report.
- Or you can search through the contents
Either way, read the thing, despite its length, as it’s probably one of the most important looks into the failures of our government (and it wasn’t just Bush).
What Happens When You Don’t Filter Your Wire Feeds
If you’ve ever worked on a newspaper and looked at the raw AP-wire feeds, you’ll see some oddball stuff come through there sometimes. The problem is that if you run a site that takes the feeds and dumps them unedited, you sometimes get some oddball stuff that comes across the wire (mirroring it below for archival purposes).
“The man appeared mentally unstable”
Unless you consider it normal, I would consider you mentally unstable if you were to, wearing only a pair of pajama bottoms, steal a baggage tractor at a major airport and drive it onto an active runway. There’s no way you could be mentally stable and want to do that. Full Story. Link via Barney.
Another Bend Blogger, and possibly more?
Thanks to Shannon who linked to Shoot The Bunny. It’s a young site, but good content, and a friend of Shannon’s is a friend of ours, right?
One thing about the site that I saw was on his profile is a link to other folks in Bend. Now the trick will be to see if any of these blogs are still maintained. I’ll update this post after I check them out later.
