Just caught this on Wired. Apparently, Futurama went back into production in 2005 and 16 new episodes have been created and are slated to be released on DVD today. Then, the episodes are set to air on Comedy central sometime next year. By the time it airs on Comedy Central, it will be almost 6 [...]
Subtitle: Now THESE Guys Have Way Too Much Time On Their Hands. Hmmm… Looks like I completely skipped September, as far as posting here. Oh Well. Anyway, some Ubergeeks in California have built a 21 Foot scale model of an X-Wing. Which wouldn’t be that big of a deal, really, because lots of geeks have [...]
Subtitle: No, I’m not getting paid for this plug… Via Compiler: I really hate e-cards, for too many reasons to list. But these are damn funny. If you want to send some high quality snark to someone’s inbox, why not leave it to the pros at someecard.com? Do it right, and you can make it [...]

It’s a small thing, but one part of my life just won’t modernize… It was one of the first “killer aps” of the early 80′s pc.
