Via Baylink, a 9 foot tall steel monolith appeared in Magnuson Park in Seattle over New Year's Eve. No clues as to the origin, although I wouldn't be surprised if Steve Ballmer is found, femur in hand, beating the crap out of a Windows ME CD...

Snicker. There are a couple of times I lived in the south when we got a reasonable amount of snow that I wish I'd done that... Of course out here amongst the Californicators it wouldn't raise an eyebrow.

Indeed. I wanna know if the people who *say* they put it up are actually the people who *did* put it up... Hey, Dan. You got a tracking number for that board?

Got a clickthrough from this page today.
Linked back and decided to go check out the news stories.
Unsurprisingly, I went 3 for 4 on sites that had expired the news story or reorganized. The fourth site? sluggy.com wouldn't even resolve.
<sigh>

Huh. I just got through to the sluggy.com link no problem.
Not surprised about the other links, I'm amazed at how many newspapers don't get the web. Or maybe I'm not.
We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
