Bacon in a can! WANT! You can already get ready-to-eat bacon in vacuum-packs which are much easier to store than cans. But… cans can last for ten years! Nevertheless… Tactical Bacon. Tac Bac. That’s basically impossible for me to pass up.
You can get it over at ThinkGeek. Buy me some too.
Speaking of food, the folks over at Mint.com have a clever little chart showing the second quarter reversal of a five month downward trend in dining out. The chart is based on aggregate information from over 1 million Mint.com users. Neat!
In other quickies, Cheney is still a lying liar. Every time the man opens his mouth he admits to war crimes… yet he’s a free man. President Clinton’s marital indiscretions brought DC to a screeching halt, but we can’t just take a tiny little peek into the crimes admitted to by the closest we have to a super-villain? I don’t think I’ll ever understand it.
And finally, some neat information about how Google gathers traffic data from users of their Mobile Maps application.
Sleeping pattern is still out of whack from a month of unemployment. Off to try and sleep.

- @b1rd it's a gift. in reply to b1rd #
- Pterodactyl is on SyFy again. You know, if you're in to dinosaurs… and Coolio. #
- @mazzie between the heat, tourists and metrofail, I'm happier at work than I am going to/from. in reply to mazzie #
- will be happy when this heat is done. Bring on Fall! #
- I just became the mayor of Starbucks – The Portals on @foursquare! http://bit.ly/NUEht #
- didn't think there could be worse braking than Metro Bus operators… Enter… Metro Rail operators. #wmata #
- grumble… #
- @DJSatori yeah but hell if I'm paying $80+ again. Apple will replace these, in my experience. Just a hassle. I also need the mic+ctrls in reply to DJSatori #
- here's a picture of the problem earbuds. These were brand new two months ago. http://twitpic.com/edxa6 #
- isn't Apple supposed to have high manufacturing quality? This is the second pair of $80 earbuds I must replace. #
- I don't understand how Metro is actually getting worse. Train doors didn't open at my stop today. Operator didn't notice, kept on truckin' #
- Way to be born, @bookgrrl! #

- Surfaces I bump against and am holding on to shouldn't be coated with lollipop to and from work. They just shouldn't. #
- Also, parents with kids having open, slobbery candies and sticky fingers in crowded trains should be slapped. BE EFFING CONSIDERATE! #
- Am I a jerk for wanting a stroller ban on Metro during rush hour? #
- @metagrapher ah, I see. Well it is one thing to "tag" art with them and something else entirely to make them part of the art I guess. in reply to metagrapher #
- considering @birdfeedapp for the fact that it remembers where you left off in the timeline. "Catching up" with Tweetie is obnoxious. #
- @metagrapher try stickers? Or a very precise stencil? in reply to metagrapher #
- @myriadian I feel your pain. I'm way overdue as well and dreading even making the appointment. in reply to myriadian #
