Took my 2-month old car to be serviced as stereo had mysteriously gone silent. Turns out the car needed to be "rebooted".
@jillesvangurp we couldn't find any. For example, automatic escaping and compile time checking both seem to be extremely uncommon.
Amused that my printer has been complaining that it's low on ink for about a year now.
@natala Is trim level the same? HX is supposed to get better mpg. Driving style or locale (city vs highway) could also be factors.
Power is out. Garage door opener can't open, and hot water doesn't work. Strange, since our water heater uses gas.
@yokofakun : GXP is a bit like JSP, but has a different set of features. See http://tinyurl.com/whygxp for a comparison.

@dylanparker We got a Flip a while back, and the "we actually use it" feature is one of the best things about it.
Finished reading Valis. I think I will stick to the earlier works of PKD from now on.
Canceled 2-week old order with Amazon and resubmitted identical order. Delivery estimate changed from July 9 - 28 to July 2!
I just saw a CHP cruiser go bonkers n 101N, just suth f University. Zig-zagged across all 4 lanes several times.
Explaining things in twitter feels a bit like writing a haiku.
I trying to give reddit feedback about another apparent bug: their password recovery emails seem to be empty. They have headers but no body.
Clicking "send" on reddit's feedback form causes "submitting..." to appear briefly and then nothing. Did it send or not? Ugh.
I tied a roll of tape to a fishing line and threw it over the branch of a tree in our yard to hang a bird feeder... and attracted a hawk!
