It’s called, as it turns out, K-NFB. It’s weird to look at a button that says $99.99 on it, but we bumped into some blind friends of ours tonight, ha ha, and they said go for it.

Dude, I just discovered 99designs, so I am woefully behind on all the breakthroughs in crowd sourcing. This looks fantastic, thanks

Being married to a legally blind person means you check all this shit out. And I have to say, Apple wins again and again. VoiceOver, which is baked into iOS, not an add on, made the iPhone usable for her and all her blind friends. A total game changer. You used to need separate gizmos for all kinds of things, like…

This is a silly conversation. We have hipsters stamping out cards with 19th century letterpresses and researching Transylvanian ales. And some of them still say ‘more cowbell’ — an SNL sketch 20 years ago about a 20-year-old song.

Wasn’t the school going to change its mascot but the biggest alumni donor made the funding of their new hockey arena contingent on keeping it the Fighting Sioux/Sue?

If you look carefully you will see the Mr Fusion attached to this BTtF DeLorean I saw last weekend at a theater opening. If I owned a DeLorean I would totally do this too!

At’s okay. Again, it is a conversation we need to have, as archaic as that sounds, the disinfectant of sunshine was never applied to these theories.

I would love it if every company, every nonprofit, every government agency I interact with had a workforce with the work ethic, sense of mission and dare I say it, manners of our American military rank and file.

I blame fracking.

Though I have a trackball and operate it with my non dominant hand, I still like to do everything by keyboard if possible. And I've noticed some, not all, browsers as they are auto recognizing your keystrokes offer you, in addition to the specific page from your history, the homepage of that site as well. For some…

That’s like the Steve Jobs rule, give people something they didn’t expect, and even nicer because it’s free!

How about we make a rule that when someone not causing harm to others asks us for a little respect, we give them respect, since we would want others to do the same for us? This was the golden rule ... before the Koch Brothers’ lobbyists rewrote it.

NO REPLIES?!?!!!?

Conan’s early weird comedy had no trouble going viral.

The hard-won insight of a Cubs fan.

How much data are they working with?

That BMW crossover passed me yesterday and all I could think of was that episode of The Sopranos where Carmela gets a Cayenne.

Weekend crews are the worst. It was a Sunday afternoon that Joplin got blown down while the B-team was on TV all like, “Well nothing to report yet GET DOWN RIGHT DOWN HOLY SHIT GET DOWN GET DOWN GET DOWN.” In broadcasting you get what you pay for.

By the way, also good advice when shopping. Put it in your e-cart, take a snap at the store, some half-yes measure. Then sleep on it.

Sadly, it does not take much to be faster than the typical checkout person at the Walmart.
