I'm kind of tired and my brain's a little scattered tonight, so here goes with the randomness...

- It's been a month and I'm still having a blast at my job. Usually by now, the novelty wears off and I'm settled into the drudgery, but this time it's different. This is definitely a good sign.

- It's like SimLemonadeStand.

- It's amazing what you can find online, and how you can prove that Big Brother is watching. Now you can watch too via satellite using the TerraServer. I found my old apartment building and my parents' house.

- Speaking of satellites, now you can track the orbits of all the satellites currently in orbit (in realtime too!) using NASA's J-Track 3D. It's über-cool. - Now you can stop pestering your friends and posting all over online message boards! Check out the Music From TV Commercials site.

- SonicBlue, makers of the Rio line, is giving Apple a big whackin'. They've come up with the RioRiot, a portable MP3 player that costs the same as the iPod, but it interfaces with both Macs and Windows machines, has an FM tuner too, runs on internal rechargeable batteries, and holds 20GB of MP3s as opposed to iPod's 6GB.

- Back east, there's a couple of DJs who are among my all-time favorite disc jockeys. They do weekdays from 3 to 7PM (commonly known as "PM Drive" in "the biz"), and they have this show promotion liner that says, "Driving you home -- with Ingus and Dingus." For some reason, that really cracks me up. I don't know why, but it does.
