dirty tricks; a serious quiz; misc
From the Boston Globe: "From the spring of 2002 until at least April 2003, members of the GOP committee staff exploited a computer glitch that allowed them to access restricted Democratic communications without a password."
The VoteMatch Quiz compares your views with the Presidential candidates. (I got 58%-43% matches from the Democratic candidates, and 23% for Bush and Cheney.) I'm a Populist-Leaning Liberal. "A high Personal score means you believe in tolerance for different people and lifestyles. A low Economic score means you believe that a good society is best achieved by the government redistributing wealth. You believe that government's purpose is to decide which programs are good for society, and how much should be spent on each program."
And a smaller political quiz.
Lee Gomes tells a story of playing his iPod through a $500,000 stereo system at a (very) high-end audio trade show.
Entirely silly -- virtual bubble wrap. Pop, pop, pop.... Some really blank CDs. There's a lot of amusing pictures at http://fun.from.hell.pl/. Much of the text is in Polish (MP3s too), but the pictures speak for themselves.
These were more goodies from MemeStreams.
I've been learning HTML and setting up my own web page. I wrote a script this evening to identify any new or modified files in my local web directory and copy them to my web space at my ISP. Pretty cool. It even tweaks the reference so my local testing really is local, but the published pages aren't trying to read files off my home system.
