Good advice from a great movie

"We must all fear evil men, but there is another kind of evil that we must fear most, that is the indifference of good men."

Can anyone name the movie?

Back on the bike

After almost a month off the bike I rode Stevens Creek Canyon and the Grizzly Flat trails last week with V. Since he's waiting for his new cross bike to arrive, he rode my Land Shark CX bike and I took the Indy Fab. It's pretty convient have a pair of cross bikes.

He shot this with his iPhone just as the light was fading. I kind like it.

See ya, iPhone

Dear Apple,

I see that you finally made the "Find my iPhone" app free as part of iOS 4.2. Sadly you chose to only make it available to iPhone 4 owners. As an iPhone 3GS owner I find this a little disappointing.

You choice in this matter has caused me to reconsider my choice of phone. I'm up for a new contract this month and I had planned to get an iPhone 4 if/when it launches on Verizon's network next year. But now, I realize that if I chose the iPhone I would be subject to your marketing whims for another two years.

Sorry guys, I just can't do it. I love your laptops and think the new Macbook Air is spectacular but my next phone will be an Android. Now where are the Android phone comparison sites...

The Internet is a powerful thing

An excellent read on the power of the internet, copyright law and bad judgment (and no this has nothing to do with illegal music downloading). Now, where's my copy of "Cooks Source"

The Myth of American Exceptionalism

I don't often agree with Michael Kinsley but in this case I sure do....
