Flash Friday Fun!
Excellent, physics-based game wherein you control the sun, trying to grab planets and keep them in orbit. Any game that includes the admonition not to "go hyperbola" is OK by me.

Meet Franklin, the Fair-Housing Fox.
Says HUD: "Just as McGruff the Crime Dog represents the fight against crime, Franklin, the Fair Housing Fox, will symbolize the nation's efforts to end housing discrimination." And also, apparently, really, really bad web-page design.

A neighbor's tree (in DC) has several branches that grow over our yard. We'd like to trim the branches to give our garden some more sunlight. Do we need his permission?

NYC meetup? The MrsMoonPie and I will be in NYC Friday, October 13, through Sunday, October 15, staying with a friend between Soho and Notila. Anyone interested in getting together? Since I know virtually nothing about the area, someone else will have to propose a venue.

Jessamyn will be in DC this weekend, so I believe a meetup is in order. I'm thinking the ultra-hip

Based on
this AskMe thread, I just bought a
Saitek A-250 wireless speaker system. However, the signal strength of the usb-connected transmitter isn't quite strong enough to penetrate the walls between my computer and my back yard.

I remember once seeing a neighbor-search utility. One could enter an address and find who lived nearby. It wasn't
