More Shit Talking At Seattlest →
“I find it hard to believe that even the scuzziest of frat boys would spend money on a street walking Belltown prostitute.

Randy Pausch has passed away. →
He inspired the world with his last lecture, and now he has finally passed from the cancer that prompted him to do so. My sympathies to his family and friends, he was quite obviously one of those people who is inspiring to know.
