Best. Halftime. Show. Ever.

I went to the Wiz/Heat game on Saturday night (37 points for Dwayne Wade, who is on my fantasy team BTW) and who came out to perform at halftime? Fucking New Edition (minus Bobby of course)! It was total hottness. They sang a new song(new record out Tuesday, natch), broke into the chous of BBD's Poison and then brought the house down with an awesome version of If It Isn't Love, complete with the original dance moves from the '80's. Needless to say, the crowd, including yours truly, luved it.

Everyone should go and read Ted Leo's journal entry from Nov 3rd. Shit is tough on the road. Also, be sure and check out the new fansite timorous me dot org. Good stuff.

Apparently releasing one pretty good record that stands the test of time and one commercial failure that later became total cult obsession and unfortunately kick starts the whole emo thing makes you the most important band of the 90's. Hoooooookay, whatever you say dude. And The La's are the most important band of our generation. Whatever!

How much would you pay for John Peel's record collection?

The threat posed by a critical flaw in Internet Explorer has been ratcheted up by the release of a program designed to exploit the vulnerability, security researchers warned on Thursday. I switched to Mozilla Firefox at work last week at the behest of the Thigh Master. IT said they don't "support it" (whatever that means) but I just can't deal with IE. Some say worst web browser ever.

A transmission error in the battleground state of Ohio gave President George W. Bush almost 4,000 phantom votes in the preliminary results posted online, the Secretary of State's office in Ohio acknowledged on Friday.

I defragged my iPod over the weekend and my battery life has almost doubled. Looks like I'll be able to eek a few more months of service out of my current model before I upgrade to a 40 gb model for Xmas. Highly recommended for anyone out there with an older iPod model. Just wipe it clean and then reload all of your songs, and voila! (almost) good as new.
