Google Searches Crack Smokers Have Used

Posted on February 25, 2009
my dear googlers, you have outdone yourselves yet again.smart places to hide your crack cocaine: i'm glad you are thinking ahead, my grasshopper, and i shall give you a few starter tips. keeping your crack at home is always a good plan. if you have to have your crack outside of the house, like when you are taking it home from your crack dealer, it's probably best to hide it in a bag, like a backpack or a purse, preferably under a layer or two of legal things...

vampyre nation? *facepalm*

Posted on February 25, 2009
jonathon sharkey is crazy. in his complaint for sovereignty of the vampyre nation he sometimes sounds hilariously kooky. sometimes, though, he sounds dangerously nuts--like when he threatens to execute his wife under vampyre law for being a traitor...

courtoons!

Posted on February 24, 2009
i just discovered courtoons today, thanks to atl. it's loaded with silly legal puns, jokes, and wordplay...i love it! it's hard to choose favourites, but here's one of them that i found utterly brilliant, since ridiculous contracts doctrines always drove me nuts:and here's one that contains a very shiny nineties reference, in addition to suggesting something that i wish had been in my moot court toolbox during law school:needless to say, i'll be following this webcomic.

facebook addiction gone overboard.

Posted on February 24, 2009
facebook is addictive. i know that better than most...i've been on the site for almost five years now, and spent more time on it than i would like to admit. however, if you are so addicted to facebook that you are going to starbucks and snatching someone else's laptop in order to check your facebook page, you should probably delete your account and contact a psychiatric professional...

yet another reason i love my boyfriend.

sometimes, work doesn't suck

Posted on February 23, 2009
i think they changed the office coffee this week. whatever the new stuff is, it's absolutely fantastic.also, i already have a replacement for the crackberry that i so boneheadedly lost in st. louis this weekend. i feel whole again.despite the yahoo radio fail, it's a great morning in the office so far.

>.<

Posted on February 23, 2009
dear yahoo radio,it made me so happy to log onto you this morning and see that you work on firefox. my biggest gripe about you was that you only worked on internet exploder, and i was so excited to see that i could listen to the custom radio station that i had been crafting for almost two years now on a browser that doesn't suck...

on hackerspaces...

Posted on February 20, 2009
i know i talk about hackerspaces pretty frequently nowadays since i'm involved with pumping station: one, the chicago hackerspace. one of the most common questions i get is what a hackerspace actually is.if you're curious, and you want a really good explanation of what a hackerspace is, what a hackerspace does, and some of the ideas and ethics behind the hackerspace movement, listen to this interview with Eric Michaud, a friend of mine and the president of pumping station: one...

Legal Geekery has a fantastic post about a guy who is trolling dating websites for lawyers who will litigate his patent for free. that's right...he sent the writer of Legal Geekery an OK Cupid message complaining that patent lawyers charge money, and that there's nowhere but dating sites where he can turn to find "honest, constitutional types regarding article 1, section 8 of the u...

another letter to my faithful googlers

Posted on February 19, 2009
dear googlers,you've outdone yourselves this week. i'm still getting plenty of you who ask if you can eat crack, and i believe that i have done the most thorough job of any site on the web of making the point that eating crack is a terrible idea. i can't fault you for being curious...

chicago 2600 is moving, to where i do not know...i kind of saw this coming, but i still don't want to go.

Posted on February 18, 2009
does anyone know a good place for a bunch of geeks to hang out and chat, hack, give talks, and pick locks one friday night a month?it looks as though chicago 2600 won't be able to meet at the boys and girls club anymore after our march meeting. i'm not quite sure about the entire story, although i've heard that the one interim director who really liked us was not given a permanent position, and another person associated with the boys and girls club wasn't interested in coordinating our meetings anymore...

one year, already?

Posted on February 18, 2009
it was a year ago today when i stumbled across phone losers of america.the way i found it was random enough: i was bored one night, and clicking my way through wikipedia. one of the random articles i stumbled across had something to do with telecom, and one of the links on that article pointed to the wikipedia page on phone phreaking...

snuggie pub crawl fail

Posted on February 15, 2009
sigh. they released a date for the snuggie pub crawl i mentioned a few days ago. it's on april 18th...right smack in the middle of notacon.i wish it could have been any other weekend than that...but hacker cons happen to fall on the short list of things that are cooler than running around town in a stupid looking blanket and drinking in public...

lessons learned the Hard way...or, even the Expert way.

Posted on February 14, 2009
lesson learned last night: when inebriated, stick to singing Rock Band on Hard. yes, Expert is easy enough when i have full control of all of my faculties. but, when i don't, i just end up failing out of anything i try. on Hard, there's enough wiggle room with the pitch that i can easily not fail out...

Pirates Hyjacked Robbed and Stole Everything...and still managed to go bankrupt.

Posted on February 13, 2009
i encountered the greatest case name ever yesterday:Pirates Hyjacked Robbed and Stole Everything, Inc. v.State Fair Park Exposition Center, 318 B.R. 502 (Bankr. W.D.Wis. 2004).now, when you read that, what do you think is going on? i don't know about you, but after reading the caption i immediately assumed that the contract with the convention center was for some kind of geeky convention, maybe cosplay or LARPing...

i'm shooting out your lights

Posted on February 13, 2009
dear office lights,we've established that you are far too bright. i get a lot of sunlight in through my window, so i don't like to have you any more than halfway on. even if i am at work after dark, i almost never turn you all the way on, since your harsh fluorescence is a little overbearing to my light-sensitive eyes...

after choir last night, i went to a bar to hang out, unwind, and watch the duke/carolina game. the game itself was a debacle...even though duke was winning when i got there, we ended up getting our asses handed to us on silver platters right there in cameron indoor...

shmoocon!

Posted on February 11, 2009
shmoocon was this past weekend, and it was full of awesome. i spent most of the time playing around and socialising...i didn't go to all that many talks. the ones i went to were good, though: i went to Jaku and Zack's talk on the agreement [a.k.a. hacking your friends for fun and increased security...

o.O

Posted on February 11, 2009
i was at the breakfast place around the corner from my office, waiting for them to finish toasting my bagel. while digging around for my office key card, i saw the little red light on my crackberry start blinking. like an appropriately pavlovian first-year associate, i immediately grab my crackberry and check to see what it is...
