Found in WalMart: Mini-G2 pens

I kid you not, they've now come out with pocket-size G-2 pens.

What I found was a 4-pack, with a black, a blue, a red, and a green pen -- and if memory serves me right, WalMart's asking $5 or so for the package.

Just wanted to pass this on.

I honestly can't picture many...

I honestly can't picture many things that would survive being run over by a car...then again, Stew, I've got to ask -- why, in the name of all that's sane, would you run over a pen with a car?

I owe an explanation :)
It's not ask dramatic as you might think. I had one of my favorite fountain pens in my pocket, and it must have fallen out while driving. It came to rest against the door and fell onto the ground when I got out. I'm not quite sure how it got under the tire, but it left a nice inkblot on the driveway when all was said and done!

Life hack learned: Always carry important items in the right-hand pocket.

Cranking

Merlin used to crank. He’s not cranking any more.

This is an essay about family, priorities, and Shakey’s Pizza, and it’s probably the best thing he’s written. »

Scared Shitless

Merlin’s scared. You’re scared. Everybody is scared.

This is the video of Merlin’s keynote at Webstock 2011. The one where he cried. You should watch it. »
