Posts where you might imagine me standing upon a soapbox being pelted by fruit. Like before there were internets.
Please Wash Hands
I read this interesting article on Boston putting the kibosh on unisex washrooms. I fail to see the issue here. Are they concerned women may see how many men fail to wash after doing their business? I’d think it would help get those numbers up…
Assholes in the Outfield
Apologies for the colorful title, but in this particular instance it is warranted. I went to my first Sox game of the year yesterday to see them shutout by the Seattle Mariners. While the game result wasn’t in our favor, the game was a good one and it was an amazing day at Fenway.
Wakefield settled down to pitch a complete game, but the Sox lineup squandered a lot of opportunities to score. As for the weather, it was more like a June day at the park than a mid-April day.

Sony is going to become a bottom feeder because they are bundling. Perhaps I should get to the point…
Ed posted a quick Aside about the PS3 and I started going off with a comment. In fact, this is the second time today because I already did so in an e-mail exchange with him earlier today. Anyway, I understand companies need to make their money and they need a marquee product to spotlight their company. I don’t know that it has ever been more evident what this can do for a company than with the case of the iPod saving Apple’s bacon. Sure, the iMac saved it from the brink of destruction over...
