Danny DeVito brand Italian lemon liquor. Just wanted to let you know this existed in the universe. Also, I want this picture on a shirt. http://yfrog.com/0awl7qj #
Just installed VMWare Fusion 3 and opened my VMWare Fusion 2 Windows XP image. Entire computer has slowed to a crawl. App unusable. #
Bought Star Trek from iTunes; 2+ hours to download on a 10 megabit connection. 4 GB hidef version + 1.83 GB SD version + 1.47 GB “extras.” #
Just to clarify: that’s over 7 GB of information downloaded in less than 3 hours. We live in the future, and it is awesome here. #
Prediction: The Apple/HTC patent spat will never be decided in court. HTC/Apple will work out a cross-licensing deal to avoid trial. #
APPL doesn’t want to go to court over this and give HTC a chance to invalidate their patents. Think of it as aggressive license negotiations #
Time change tonight. Everybody set your clocks an hour ahead before you crash. I hate springing forward, wabbit. #

Canadian Patent Appeal Board Rules Against Business Method Patents (courtesy Michael Geist): http://tr.im/obmN. Amazon can still appeal. #
The Dow brushes 9000. Interesting. #
“Accessing the webcast requires … RealPlayer or WindowsMedia Player.” Boo. Hiss. #
Debates between poli. pundits on cable news oft have as much substance as schoolyard cootie arguments. Its like Ahab chasing the fail whale. #
NewsFire has become crashy on my Mac. Much as I love its clean interface, considering switching to NetNewsWire for iPhone integration. #
Peace, love, and fancy cheeses. I’m out, Twitter. See you tomorrow. Bring your snorkel. #
