Men after my own heart! Great effort to be filed under:
most original fundraiser
not to mention most worthy charity donation...
Lovely touch that both work in an academic setting but dedicate the raised funds to a public library. Is it superfluous to mention I'll be voting for BOOZING and having a lemon drop to their success.
A€ Votre Sante les gars! Bonne Chance!

La La Laaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
I'm going on vacation, I really am. I get to go home and see my family and do all things lovely and sweet. I get to unplug, although I plan on borrowing everyone's digital camera and posting festive updates on flickr. Keep checking there for updates.
I am so happy!

the war on DOPA
(revised 8/4/06 due to some technical challenges)
So much has been said so brilliantly about why it's such a BAD idea. Most enraging how this only ends up preventing a certain socio economic group of kids from being part of their peer group today, and learning skills they will undoubtedly need in the future. See the "DOPA watch" link in my blogroll.
Email your senator, tell them to VOTE AGAINST IT, from a post on Meredith Farkas' Information Wants To Be Free

Wait, Wait...
I love to tell staff at MPOW that to "get in to" new technology, they should seek ways to explore them thru their own passions. I simply mean that when trying to learn about blogs, it is best to find blogs about a topic that you most enjoy reading about. Like food or wine or dogs or whatever you love to learn about that is not related to work. Don't laugh, many kept trying to tie this with all new concepts and all at once, discover blogs through reading about a technical topic they are not too familiar with (like library 2.0) or simply getting oh, hum on the whole "more stuff about work" thing.
In this spirit, I was tickled to find that one of my favorite radio shows: NPR's "Wait! Wait! Don't tell me." is now podcasting parts (Not my Job) of the show every week! Yea! I am learning about podcasts and this one is a treat.
