Brilliant filth.

Filth.

Filth.

Filth.

Filth.

All filth.

Up next: MS Project. WTF’s a ‘bottle’? Feel my ignorance…

Stuck at the End of the Internet? WRONG, FOOL. The Official Seal Generator is a fun way to waste valueable time summarizing your being / site / mojo.

With no further ado (maybe a wordpress theme change is in order):

That tagger was the best I could come up with, after snickering to myself while cycling through a number of motorhead motifs that I also felt summed up the spirit of the site, such as:

1. “Caveat Emptor”
1. “Eat the Rich”
1. “Don’t Forget the Bastard”
1. “Take One Look and Die”
1. “Going For the High One”

… and… well…

Here.

I’m thinking Patti Smith, MC5, J. Mellencamp[1]… Joy Division.

Tom Waits is on the cusp, but needs to be [more] gnarled and wizened[er] first.

Grandmaster Flash will (soon; has been nominated last two years) open the floodgates for rap acts. How will go once Flash is inducted?

1. Grandmaster Flash
1. Dr. Octagon

What, Dr. O isn’t up for nomination until like… 2020? Bummer.

[1] (not that I’m a big fan, but he has integrity and he’s a rebel or smokes three packs of cigs (post heart attack) a day)

Ok, not really. But that would be awesome. Maybe I’m drawing a connection between Toby’s performance of “Plush” that was straight outta Sigma Chi, and WF’s performace in Old School.

In other news, this week we learned Dilana is a raging, trash-talking bley-otch. BFD? That was coming. Maybe we can chalk it up to PMS, MS, P-MS, P+MS, or the fact that “[she doesn't] know how to lie” combined with the fact that yes, Ryan “Dark Horse” Star is no “Sweet” Suzy McNeil, and that “Ryan ‘Dark Horse’ Star” is not really that great a nickname when compared to “‘Sweet’ Suzy McNeil”, “Old Hickory”, or “Old Scratch and Sniff”.

As Patrice was packing it in tonight, KLA indicated that she sensed Patrice had a thing going on with Lukas. I for one, much like Qui-Gon Ginn, did not sense anything.

A damned shame to see a great go so young. He did it his way.

Also a shame that the obit fails to mention BK’s bit in This is Spinal Tap, undoubtedly his greatest role.

I’m about to jump on a plane, but quickly re: Top 10 big things in Tiger (10.5):

(from live coverage at tuaw.com)

#2: Time Machine - “Everyone says ‘Back it up’, but people don’t” Only 26% of people back up their data, and they mostly do it manually. Only 4% back up automatically. All of this changes with Time Machine. Automatically back up your Mac. Backs up EVERYTHING. Restores EVERYTHING. You can buy a new HD and restore on to it. You can restore all data or pick and choose. Back up to local HD or remote server. “Whole new way of backing up and restoring.” (Windows has had something like this at least since ME) Steve does a demo. A file is missing from a folder. (Finder looks the same.) Click on Time Machine in the Dock. “Time is a dimension that receeds back into your desktop”. Windows in time are stacked behind each other. Looks damn sexy. Fly through time till you see a difference. (I assume he means in what files are there and what arent) Double click files to get previews, click to restore and it re-appears in the present (TRIPPY!) Works with applications other than Finder as well. Demo’s with AddressBook. “Search the past.” Demo’s with iPhoto, but something goes wrong. Steve elegantly force-quits.

Apple hasn’t done so well on the data protection front since… ever, so this could be significant… had the demo not crashed. Trash can
