The Birth Certificate
Sony admits utter Playstation Network failure: your personal data has been stolen. Wow! Just wow!
Later I want to check out Wuala and see how it compares to DropBox. Looks promising...
The iPhone case for the hard core Apple fanboy: Steve Jobs in Carbonite.
Our guests at the house are having a good time and are going to stay for an extra day. I had a smooth drive down to the office, listening to TNT #229 along the way. The weather outside reminds me of the backdrop to the Twilight movie series.
Smirking at this tweet: “Okay, Obama, fine. Now SHOW US THE PLACENTA”. After all of this time, I guess The Donald (who's also in NH today) got under his skin.
Via Lord_Voldemort7: Prince William is marrying 'commoner' Kate Middleton. Does this mean if they have a son he'll be a 'Half-Blood Prince.' Shit, not again.
"We do not have time for this kind of silliness," says Obama about the birth certificate. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm off to see Oprah.
Via KatMcKinley: I demand to see Donald Trump's hairline.
Went with my GPU hardware team for a boondoggle lunch at Papa Razzi.
This year's "tech unicorn" officially arrives tomorrow. Officially Official from Apple: 'White iPhone Arrives Tomorrow
Via andylevy: Fine, Obama released his birth certificate. Can we not lose sight of the fact that there is a royal wedding in two days? Focus, people!
Tried this at the restaurant's fufu bathroom today. If you're going to get a scented soap, this is recommended.
Via AmazonVideo: Now available: "Doctor Who," season 6. Sign up for a TV pass to have episodes delivered the day after they air.

Via Lileks: Could be worse; could be arguing whether Kate Middleton has to release her birth certificate to prove she wasn't born Catholic.
Stayed at work til 6pm, intending to head straight to RCIA. Had a smooth commute north, catching up with my dad for the first portion and listening to a podcast the rest of the way. When I got to St. Patricks I was reminded that this is school vacation week. As such there's no RCIA this week either. So I surprised Michelle by being home by 7:15pm rather than 8:15pm.
It sounds like it was a good day overall. Timothy played at a friend's house. Claire and Kelly went to Golds to try Zumba for the first time and really enjoyed it.
Downloading the new Google Docs Android App to my phone. Coolest feature: Optical Character Recognition (OCR) from pictures you take with your phone.
Best use of animated GIFs I've seen in ages. Understated and not in your face.
