one million giraffes
youidiot:
My friend, Jørgen, doesn’t believe I can collect one million giraffes by 2011. I’m gonna prove him wrong, but I need your help. You can create your giraffe(s) in any way you like, but not on a computer. Why? So far I’ve got 6030 giraffes, so I need 993 970 more! And I have 549 days left to get them.

My sister is currently studying for the bar and her AIM status is “corporations belong in Delaware and should stay there and leave me alone.”
I thought that was really funny.
So how does YouTube bring in revenue? Well, it tries to sell advertisements...

“If experience is a guide, opportunities are more likely to be seized and defined by startups than incumbents. This theme was identified by Clay Cristensen in “The Innovator’s Dilemma” and holds true in this case. New cost structures, new use of tools and infrastructure, new ideas about what content bundles are meaningful will all play a major role in what emerges, ...
Is it just me or does anyone else feel that now more then ever we’re on the verge of completely and utterly falling apart? Like one more crisis and BOOM GOES THE DYNAMITE?
Oops
Wife just reminded me that mother-in-law follows me on Twitter, and my Tumblr updates go to Twitter.

Lincoln Tunnel Fail!!!
The main access ramp the the Lincoln Tunnel is closed. So every single car must approch via an auxiliary road off to the side. The 25 minute trip from Newark Airport to my apartment on the UWS at 12:45am should take 20 minutes. It’s going to be over an hour and a half tonight. I JUST WANT TO BE HOME!!!!!
This has been one of the worst travel days ever. Sorry to rant and complain,...

Doh!
Ground stop at Newark, no flights in or out right now. My flight is delayed “until further notice.”
Eric: they sell maps to Appalachian hiking trails.
