I've got a bottle of Swathmore Vinyards Merlot from South Africa sitting here that I could open right now. But I'm saving it, see. That's how much control I have.

Mozilla Dot Party Three Point Fucking Oh!
2000-03-06 10:22:01
Damn! I can't believe it's been TWO YEARS since Netscape released the source code for Navigator at the Mozilla Dot Party on March 31st, 1998. CRAZY!
To celebrate the fantastico party, Mozilla team leader and big FREAK Jamie Zawienski threw a big PARTAY at the Sound Factory, a grodie South-of-Market night club in San Francisco. GRODIE, but big enough to hold the thousands of Free Software advocates, Web digerati types, PARTY PEOPLE and just plain coolio folks that came to the first Mozilla Dot Party.
LAST YEAR, JWZ left the Mozilla Project a few days before Mozilla Dot Party 2 point oh. It was a dark time for Mozillur -- the code was going through some major overhauls, without much visible progress. But it was a GREAT PARTY, anyways! I had a blast! There must have been THIRTY Spock Mountain Research Labs cyberbilly research fellows there, whooping it up and drinking big Spocktails. Beaujolais!
And now this Free Software Webby tradition will CONTINUE with Moziller Dot Party Three Point Oh. Hooray! Mozillur dot party is the BEST PARTY EVER. It's fun, you can DANCE, and there's MOZILLUR SOURCE CODE projected on every available surface. Not only that, but maybe Mozillur M14 will be available by then. Mozillur is getting REALLY GOOD, folks, if you haven't tried it lately.
Anyways, go to Mozillur Dot Party, but don't stand between me and the bar, eh? And if you see someone in a SMRL lab coat, DAMMIT, man, BUY THEM A DRINK! They're doing the research so you don't have to.

All this talk about death, wakes and Moloch recently has, frankly, got me a little worried. What if I'm next to go?

Who will talk for me when this terrible day comes? (More...)
It's not like I have a heroin problem, see. I'm just a self-indulgent brat who likes to live beyond her means.

Seventy bucks of interest for a two-week $400 loan is perfectly reasonable, if you really need that hamachi. (More...)
During a magnificent sunny day in a fast receding autumn, the Spock Science Monitor reporters once again blew the playa dust off of their computers and covered the 2002 Burning Man Decompression – held every year just east of Portola Hill in beautiful San Francisco. Both an afternoon and evening issues were released to the unsuspecting crowd of freaks attempting to in some small way experience the euphoria of the playa – if but for a brief afternoon far from the desolation of Northern Nevada.
