There are a few things I always spend way too much time looking for when I am trying to describe to someone the type of trivia our team writes when we host. I realized that the easiest thing would just be to post them here.

Image #1: Obama Ransom Note. Name the movie poster each letter came from. Hint: they are each the first letter of the movie.

Images #2-3: Nicolas Cage Hair Parade. Name the movie based on the hairstyle. Hint: there are no duplicates.

I then started…

gchats from my dad: wikileaks edition

  • Dad: BTW, did you see the article on the wire about the CIA setting up a task force to look into the Wikileaks stuff. They refer to it (and this is true, not made up) as the WTF - I guess none of them text very much

Muggings

I feel like I know an inexplicably high number of people who have been mugged, more than one involved a weapon, more than one was injured.

So here is my question. Are muggings on the rise everywhere, or does wholesale I choose to be friends with constitute a statistical anomaly?

(off the top of my head I count 6 people, a mix of nyc and sf)

NO BLASTERS!: My TSA Encounter

noblasters:

“You don’t need to see his identification.”

On November 21, 2010, I was allowed to enter the U.S. through an airport security checkpoint without being x-rayed or touched by a TSA officer. This post explains how.

Edit: Minor edits for clarity. I have uploaded the audio and it is available

I went through the scanner, and then immediately had words with the TSA supervisor, but only because the agent who put me in that line was incredibly rude.
