On this date, in 1969 at 8:30 AM EST, Boris Karloff passed away. Also, I was born. How's that for a fun Scotto factoid?

Happy Groundhog's Day, Candlemas, Pidyon Ha-Ben, Imbolc, Lughnasadh, Thesmophoria, Farewell to Lords of Misrule's Trickster phase, etc.

You're one year older, one year wiser,
Rock 'n roll star, king, czar, and a kaiser.
A room full of friends, a mouth full of cake,
Every present is for you and it feels pretty great.
You're the man of the hour, the V.I.P.
You get the first slice of the p-i-e,
But first blow out the candles and make a wish.
Put a smile on, cuz it's your birthday, bitch!

Go Scotto, it's your birthday
Go Scotto, it's your birthday


Walkies yesterday had busier streets than the other Sunday's "28 days" vibe. Looks like very few people on Los Olas give a flying fig about big football.

Also, yesterday, I saw a place advertising "VIET MARKET"... my mind got muddled, and for a brief dyslexic moment I thought it said "YETI MARKET". I thought that'd be a nice place to get a nice, sturdy hairbrush, or mountain-climbing equipment... but no, they just sold yummy-looking baked goods and Vietnamese cooking supplies. Echoing through my mind was Race Bannon talking to some Nepalese folk, and the quote in heavily accented English... "A terrible justice has been done." (Episode 22...

Tonight, I go out to dinner with Danny, and find out what computer games he got me.

Update - it was Tron 2.0, and Simpsons Hit & Run.


A sort-of-recently-discovered vulnerability in Microsoft Internet Explorer allows just about anyone with a little HTML knowledge to lead you into thinking you're somewhere you're not. A link you click on could display a particular URL in the address bar and a totally different page on the screen. It could quite easily be used by credit card scammers to fool you into giving them your information. For a live example of the exploit, click the following link: www.cbs.com. [update - fixed, if you get a windows update]

If you get taken to a different web site, then you're in trouble, because Microsoft doesn't have a fix for this yet. (via World of Stuff, and Netsquirrel)Site Meter
