The Linux Murder Trial: You’re about to experience chaos.

January 2008

Fuck Sewell, he never showed up last night. Actually, neither did you two. Fuck all three of you.

Jan 31, 2008

Forget Sewell Chan! Gawker is totes stealing my posts! Note, Krucoff, when I say ‘stealing my posts’ I mean they coincidentally ran something that was on the wires. Not the wire. Of course, it’s unlikely you are going to tip them on their own laziness. But if you email Sewell, please don’t say I’m calling plagarism. I don’t want to have to watch you grovel again — Sewell won’t ever fuck you on the couch.

And holy shit, speaking of 9/11, Gothamist built a time machine and it runs on a combo of whiteness and musical obliviousness!

Jan 30, 2008

Heck, let’s have another 9/11. It’s not like my portfolio isn’t already in the terlet.

Jan 30, 2008

Don’t worry Rudy, we’ll always have 9/11.

The Snipes Trial? Wasn’t that decided already? Damn those creationists!!

Jan 29, 2008

Why aren’t more people talking about the Snipes case? [Oh, because someone won’t kick start Blottered]. Anyhoo, isn’t weird when you see just ‘Snipes’? My first thought was ‘his name is Snipes?’. And then you find out it wasn’t an accounting error, but that Blade — who proved that he could not only exist but thrive, handsomly, doing next to no real work — decided to become a tax activist. Isn’t that like Kate Moss becoming a body image activist?

Gruberwatch: over before it started. Grrr. AAPL still at $130. But I did get this precious bit of wire snippet emailed to me earlier: “OYU TOLGOI, Mongolia — When Robert Friedland got out of prison, he headed straight for Portland, and that’s where he met Steve Jobs. The Reed College duo bounced around 1970s India, teamed with Woodstock emcee Wavy Gravy and communed on Friedland’s Oregon orchard, credited with inspiring Jobs to name his company Apple Computer.”

Jan 29, 2008

New bands from the guys who brought you Drive Like Jehu, Rocket From the Crypt, Hot Snakes, &c.

Not your father’s Animal Chin. [via Kottke] I saw this Spike Jonze skate video about a month ago during the halftime of a football game that involved “rally tequila” and my shirt getting ripped in half. Thanks, Randy.

Jan 29, 2008

Gruberwatch update! Still silent on DTrace controversy! AAPL at $130. Chortling still an option!

Jan 28, 2008

“Does anyone actually know someone with a trust fund?” Did this come up on the Gossip Girls or something? You know what? The last person I knew with an honest to goodness trust was in college, so she probably doesn’t count since we haven’t spoken in 15 years. But you know what I do know? About 15 people who had their apartments partially or fully financed by their parents. So, yeah, keep saying that over and over at Bar Martignetti, asshole.

These Middle Eastern porn sluts speak Arabic or Farsi. Can you?

Jan 28, 2008

Hey, it’s how they caught Capone. Sorta. Except not by accident. [Warning: Not self-referential or NY nu-media centric.]

Jan 25, 2008

Now we know why the Boss has been so quiet all day.

Jan 24, 2008

Look! An old lady left a comment. This is Krucoff’s Mom, btw.

Jan 24, 2008

Second prize is a set of steak knives or the murder weapon of your choice I guess.

Jan 24, 20081 note

GOOG at $573. You can go back to seething. AAPL? Who cares. I’m doing DTrace Controversy Countdown, waiting for Gruber to come up with a tortured explanation of how Apple mangling open source tools is a feature.

One 7” produced in Detroit in 1981 is better than NYC’s musical omnibus from the past decade. Suck it, haterz.
