You Want Hassle-Free Flying?

While the Feds have relaxed some of the earlier imposed liquid restrictions, you’ll still probably be better off flying naked (NSWF)

We’ll just ignore the fact that the human body is mostly liquid, OK? Don’t want the feds to figure out that little secret.

Thanks Barn for the link, which I swear I posted before, but I can’t seem to find it since my search form seems to be causing me trouble (I’m working on a fix).

Fund Raising Pledge Drive for BendForums.com

OK, this is a total cross-post, so if you’re not interested in reading about a fund-raising drive I’m doing for Bend Forums, don’t bother reading on. Normal posting coming when I get through the rest of my email.

I’m Home

Made it home a few hours ago. The wedding was very nice (Emily, you and Stephen are going to make a wonderful husband and wife), and it was nice to see everybody there. I’m sitting here watching my 1200+ email messages download here, so I’ll get through those tomorrow.

One last thought before I get to bed: Taking a vacation with kids (especially when they’re 3 and 6 years of age) is not a vacation — it’s exhausting.

Leaving Town

I’m heading out of town for a few days to head up to a good friend’s wedding in Portland. I’ll be back on Sunday. For those of you thinking about breaking into my house, don’t bother: other family members will be staying at my house and we recently upgraded the locks and deadbolts in the house.

I’m going to see if I can pirate a wireless signal while I’m up there, mostly just so I can get onto Google maps to get directions.

Meanwhile, everybody play nice until I get back, enjoy some other blogs or start up some threads over at Bend Forums.

I’ve Always Thought Security Guards Were Trained Monkeys

And in India, they actually are.

What Has Your Radio Station Been Playing?

This doesn’t work for any of the local stations, but it appears that some Portland and Eugene stations are popping up on this map. Anybody know if this works accurately?

It’s Official: Texas Sucks

Why? Because there’s a school district there that is banning cleavage. How heartless can these people be? A woman’s cleavage is one of the things that keeps a young man going and functioning through high school, and he’s now likely to drop out of school or start going on a murderous rampage. Or something.

Culinary Genius Right Here

Ladies and gentlemen, I give you the meat cake.

Thanks Jesse for this.

Private AOL Search Data Now Online and Searchable

I don’t have a clue how long this will last and it’s running dirt slow, but all that data that AOL accidently let loose now has a pretty searchable interface. Link via Tech Crunch.

Update: Looking at the comments at Tech Crunch, there are also several other sites that have interfaces for the data. From what people are saying there’s nothing really super exciting in the data, unlike when the AOL idiots post on this site.

Lieberman’s Site Wasn’t Hacked

He was just too cheap of a bastard to buy decent Web hosting.

Running a huge campaign on a $15/month Web hosting? Very stupid, Joe.
