Stolen!

When she is not stealing souls, she is stealing glasses.

Whatever sort of monster she is, she is a myopic monster.

What kind of monster is she?

Some time ago, I posited that Maggie might actually be a zombie.

The signs were there. The moaning. The attempts to eat human flesh.

Now? I’m not so sure.

The true test is whether or not her bite turns others into a zombie, and teeth have yet to break through the gums and wreak their havoc upon our lives — the only thing certain about our knowledge on this issue is that we cannot be certain.

But she has grown rather articulate for a zombie, with multiple consonant and vowel sounds that she combines in some sort of experimental type fashion.

And she’s using a fork these days. Zombies do not, to my knowledge, use a fork.

Also, there’s this:

Yes, that’s my daughter reaching into her own grandmother’s mouth in an attempt to pull out her soul. Not nice, but not very zombie-like.

So clearly she’s some kind of monster. But what?

I will continue to report on this outbreak, from its source.

The morning coffee is doing it wrong

Your intrepid blogger has been working on his Maggie-A-Day project for some time now. Some days it feels insufficiently creative — for instance, checking out this levitation-a-day blog makes us feel inadequate.

Creatively.

Links, featuring monsters, manifestos and radar ears

“I am not a brand.”

Maureen Johnson wrote a manifesto … well, she wrote a blog post, and titled it manifesto. If Manifestos have a minimum length, I don’t think it qualifies. But it’s still pretty awesome.

When was the last time someone was sued for singing a famous song in school? The last time something more than a takedown notice was the legal consequence of the music on a YouTube video? Sure, YouTube itself is being sued, and individuals are suing in response to the takedown notices, but the answer is actually never.

The penalty faced by those many people who quite publicly acted out the Thriller video? Nothing.

These are just a few of the ways in which this much reblogged article regarding Glee and copyright fails to have its facts straight. Still, it is interesting stuff and the hyperbole does not entirely invalidate the article’s conclusions.

My Roomba is broke, and I need to order a part to fix it. So sad. In the meantime I am forced to stare sadly at its beautiful algorithms.
Do not forget to password protect your Internet in Germany — you can be fined 100 Euros. In related news, German courts make it illegal for those who are not tech savvy to have wireless internet.
Apple and Flash, part one:

Take what Steve Jobs says about Flash, and do a copy & paste.

Apple and Flash, part two:

To demonstrate how HTML5 (as an open standard) is better than Flash, Apple created a little demo page to show you. Of course, if you are not using an Apple’s Safari browser, Apple tells you that you need Safari. Even though Firefox, Chrome, and most other current browsers would work just fine.

I’m sure you heard this, but the Big Bad Blog would be remiss not to repeat it:

Saudi clerics have issued a fatwa … advocating that women should share their breast milk with the men in their life.

I love Clients From Hell. I’m not sure that most of it is not made up, and I particularly enjoy the rare posted exchange in which the designer is the asshole.

This particular entry goes above and beyond the norm, to the root of most customer problems.
