Time Sinks Today, I received an update of the X-Plane flight simulator. Last year, I was flying regularly, but I had to stop when I upgraded to OS X. X-plane wouldn't run under classic. But with the latest beta, I am back flying. The beta doesn't provide joy-stick support yet. But when that comes, I can see hours disappearing as I fly around California and beyond. 11:31:14 PM     Comment []

The Swimsuit Issue Arrives! What a hoot. It's even got a centerfold. It seems a little bizarre that SI released it this week. It's not really a slow sports week with the Winter Olympics going full tilt. 8:40:56 PM     Comment []
