Facebook’s Snack Room (they have one on each floor).
Randi says she’s “desensitized” to it, but I literally stood there with my mouth agape for ten minutes.  Okay, two minutes, but it felt like ten.  And I think I gained weight through osmosis.  And the two five mini peppermint patties I scarfed while we checked out the goods.
This represents the worst possible dieting situation for someone with my (lack of) willpower. I would be 800 pounds.  I literally don’t think I could ever spend more than two hours in a place with access to a room like this.
Does anyone else have free, 24-7 snacks in their office?  How do you handle it, if so?

We have this.  You get used to it.  Ours is almost identical.  You hopefully gravitate towards the healthier stuff…

I never saw the movie but Damon Gough (Badly Drawn Boy) is a favorite of mine. I love the vibes on this song.

Shake it, shake it…

Just throwing this out there — heard a rumor that The Dead are playing a free show at Battery Park at 5PM on Monday March 30.  As you were…

I’m such a sucker for a how-to-drive-cross-country-with-your-dog story. [WaPo]
Cute story.  I can’t recommend a MAJOR road trip enough.  6 years ago this summer I drove from Seattle down to LA, across to Austin and NOLA, then up to Chicago before ending in Detroit.  Vegas to Austin in one stretch — 24 hours of driving.  We slept with friends, in motels, in parking lots (in a tent), and saw amazing parts of this country.  We still talk about the Vegas to Austin stretch.

Phish’s set list at Hampton last night.  Jesus.  Unbelievable.
I’m honestly getting chills listening to this right now.  See you this summer boys.

Listening right now.  2 hour first set.  Wow.  Huge fan of technology.

who walked on me and danced a jig

That he had learned when he was six

then stopped and did some other tricks

like pulling weapons from his coat
