Adam Curry: Last night after reading this piece pointed to by Dave, I decided to check out my blog archive to see what I was writing at the time about the Bush 'switch' from searching for Osama Bin Laden to focusing our attention on Saddam and Iraq as the 'bad guys' and likely responsible for 9/11. July 6th 2002 I wrote an entire essay about the topic, here's an excerpt: "Since I can't get Osama's head on a stick, I call up my buddy Saddam Hussein and tell him I've got another walk-on part for him.

Check out your own archives and re-publish your thoughts when you first saw this switch act. It will help people remember these important events when they go to the polls in november, I'm sure of it.

Dave Winer: Today I rented an apartment in downtown Seattle, near Pike Place market, museums, restaurants, ferries. It's a short-term lease, puts me in Seattle at least through the end of November. It's the first time I've ever lived in the center of a city. I move in on Wednesday. Exciting!!

Jonathon Delacour. I never realized, until I bought a new indoor plant this week, that in England someone with a natural ability in growing plants is said to have "green fingers". In Australia I've only ever heard the American equivalent: "green thumb".
