The 2009 NFL season so far, summed up in a nice, tidy pie chart.

Went to Chicago a few weeks ago and did the Sears Willis Tower Ledge.  Whoa.

1. The ESPN.com widget on my Google homepage has displayed the same "Favre signs with Vikings" headline ever since Favre signed - over a month ago.  I see this as further evidence that ESPN is lame and does not get it.
    
2. Windows 7 might actually be worth paying for.  Not worth the price Microsoft is asking, mind you, but worth buying.
    
3. We got a new german shepherd dog two months ago, and I should so be writing about her.  As I type this, she's in her crate, laying on her back, sleeping.  Don't get all PETA on me about the crate - it's god's gift to puppy owners who don't like their shit wrecked.  Besides, she likes it and goes in it on her own.
    
4. I just upgraded the software I use to maintain this site.  It has tagging support, so you can see at a glance what I used to write about back when I actually paid attention to this site.
    
5. I finally saw Little Shop of Horrors.  A musical featuring a bunch of upcoming actors who can kinda sing and a plant that eats people.  Yeah, it's just as weird as it sounds.
