Information overload.
Holy moley, the servers at Red Hat are overloaded this evening. Ah, I know! It must be the enormous stampede to read my new article there. Enjoy… eventually!

Everything else
Touchdown.
After a 5+ hour flight, I was worn out and ragged. So I had only one thing on my mind when I rolled into the hotel — a very comfortable Residence Inn — and got my luggage put up. That’s right: sushi. There was a neat little “Umi Sushi Boat” …
NM rocks!
Linux has rapidly become as easy to use as (or easier than) any other operating system, even on laptops like my ThinkPad T43. Today my WiFi is working at the snap of my fingers while waiting at the airport gate. “Thank you” to all the NetworkManager contributors for making it …
Never has a remake done so much so well.
Battlestar Galactica, simply one of the best shows I’ve seen on TV, and one of the only ones I watch anymore. Clever, poignant, exciting, dramatic, intelligent, and powerful. Tonight’s episode rocked hard. Can they keep up this dizzy pace of even better shows practically every week?
When it’s OK to be a heel.
My wife and I give to a number of charitable organizations, including many police charities that provide community support, like the Virginia State Police Association’s program that gives teddy bears to children involved in domestic abuse situations, and provides for families of officers killed or injured in the line of …

Wake up America!
Greg writes an interesting bit about the discrepancy between telco and cable regulation and what it means — or at least what Lawrence Lessig thinks it means — to the future of information flow and open content on the Internet. The same spirit of innovation that fueled the Internet revolution …
Pretty slick, Slick.
As my former colleague Dave found out, it was a very messy morning indeed. Not three cars ahead of me, going over a bridge that forms an overpass over the train route near our house, some bozo decided that there was really no reason to exercise any caution due to …
Illin’.
Home sick today, blecch. This bizarre cold/sinus thing came on Monday without much warning. Medication last night didn’t prevent much except sleep, so I decided to recuperate. And no, I have nothing else interesting to post about today, just complaints about health. Join us next time for another exciting episode …
