Thanks, mattbucher!
Thanks for the shoutout, mrbill. It was nice to meet you. We had a great meetup (of 2!) there at the lodge. They even let me play a part (secretary) in the initiation. One of the things I like about masonry is that you get to meet people from all sorts of different backgrounds (a computer guy, a pastry chef, insurance salesman, etc.) that you wouldn't otherwise meet.

It'd be interesting if we could somehow gauge the level of interest on those other sites. I'd be willing to bet that there are more MeFites on Fuelly or Etsy or Good Reads than VideoSift (3), Furl (12), or Runner+ (11).

Your "revolution" is over, Mr. Blazecock! Condolences! The bums lost! My advice is, do what your parents did! Get a job, sir! The bums will always lose-- do you hear me, pileon? THE BUMS WILL ALWAYS LOSE!

Server updated
I got a weird thing in Google Reader where AskMe tags I had subscribed to showed up with MeFi posts tagged with the same keywords. It was a feature more than a bug as I saw some posts I had missed in the past! Bravo!

I live MeFi in dreams
Was it the dream where you're standing on top of this pyramid in sort of sun-god robes and a thousand naked women were screaming and throwing little pickles at you? Why am I the only one with that dream?

Should we FPP the Obama speech?
Yes. Let's all FPP it.

MeFi is about the links.
But it's interesting that most of the stuff sidebarred is comments.

Even that racist Bell Curve guy says that this is a very substantive and meaningful speech. It's beyond shallow to look at the speech and say "Obama is all hype." You have the right to your opinion, but if you've read that speech and can only consider it all "hype," my impression of your ability to discern shit from shinola is deeply skewed.

SXSW Austin meetup?
What about Sunday, March 9, in the afternoon? Last year we met at Opal Devine's on 6th so maybe somewhere else this time.

How 'bout the Gingerman (4th & LaVaca)? I can't really think of a Mexican place downtown that would serve as a good meetup spot (Manuel's, Iron Cactus, Las Manitas), but someone feel free to correct me.

Raising the level?
I was really hoping the Gitmo thread could discuss some of the details of the case, but it was soon apparent that thread would be dominated by dios-hating (left-wing bonding, as SCDB says) and that did disappoint me. [dios, I think you should get a new account with a new handle and leave the baggage of "dios" behind.] I don't usually post in political threads and I regret doing so today. I think I will give myself a timeout.

I'm in. I signed up as Harmonic Timecubes because there was not enough room for "Nature's Only True Harmonic 24-Hour Timecubic Cycle." Looking forward to it!
