Heh

"Secondary roads could be an issue and basically, people just getting down their front stairs."

Yeah, been there, done that. Still have the sore tailbone. Working from home today, needless to say.

Monday Linkage

(Not to be confused with Monday Dinklage, although I was surprised to see him appear -- digitally altered, height-wise, just like Tom Cruise -- on an episode of Chuck as we were catching up on Tivo.)

1. Meghan O'Rourke on Knocked Up and feminism.

2. The Creation "Museum" (where willful ignorance is on display 24/7) made Mad Magazine's list of the dumbest people, places, and events of 2007.

3. The worst iPod accessories. Including Rock My Teeth -- a device that uses the iPod to allegedly whiten your teeth. Really. I've heard that the folks at the Creation "Museum" bought ten of them.

4. The new Apple ad rocks. It was one of the few non-painful things about watching the Jets game yesterday.

5. StarTrek.com has been shut down.

6. T-Mobile is blocking twitter. Which, appropriately enough, allows me to call T-Mobile's execs "twits." And yes, it's being reported as a technical issue by Twitter, but if T-Mobile was telling customers that they were blocking the service, someone there did something really stupid.

7. 30 Years of LucasFilm Christmas Cards.

8. As noted by chris_walsh, John Singleton will be directing the A-Team movie.

9. Need a Wii? You can grab a raincheck this Thursday and Friday, and be guaranteed one this January.

10. Finally, it's the comparison you've been waiting for: A Mac Mini vs. a Honey-Baked Ham

Not exactly a meme

But I went ahead and "built" a city:

Yendiopolis

ETA: And click here to increase Yendiopolis's industry.

It's not exactly SimCity, either. No giant dinosaurs rampaging about. Then again, there's also a lot less micromanagement.
