Coolness, someone has done a Map of Springfield (local copy).

I have experienced Fellowship of the Rings. So as to not ruin the experience for anyone who has not yet had the pleasure I will refrain from talking about specifics.

Instead feelings and thoughts. I have yet to complete Fellowship, I know bad fozbaca, but because of the lack of that experience I was able to feel the intensity that can be presented via a movie vs. a book. It left me with feelings of questioning, doubt and meaning. There is possiably the beginnings of another journey for myself, or maybe the need for one. But I don’t know where and I don’t know when.

Please feel free to share your experience with Fellowship but also remember the many have not yet had the fortune to see the movie, so don’t ruin it for them.

One Ring To Rule The Dome, great hack by the MIT folks.

from Dave Winer’s Scripting News

In the rush of emotion after Sept 11, I decided to do something different — I gave $100 to the Palestinian Red Crescent…

The first step to respect is to realize that these are real people, with hearts and brains, and like all people, it’s hard for them to hate people who care for them. So I highly recommend doing this . I feel really good about it.

I got my mom to give them $100 too. Now we joke about how the Bush Administration is going to round us up. I told her I thought it would be an honor to be rounded up for giving a small amount of money to help people who need help.

Open your hearts and open your wallets. Let’s help the Palestinians and at the same time help ourselves.

Note that Mr. Winer is Jewish. Think about this.
