Well, the inevitable has happened: Sony BMG has now been sued over their DRM copy protection blunder. Also, inevitably, a few malicious backdoor threats have already appeared over the past few days that exploit the Sony rootkit (Breplibot.b, and Breplibot.c/.d).
On the radio at work, we've heard a lot of Death Cab For Cutie ("Soul Meets Body") and Dave Matthews Band ("American Baby") lately. While I've always liked Dave Matthews, they overplay him here - bad. Every third or fourth song is DMB. Give 'em a rest, people.
The Big-Time Micro cache was one we couldn't find this past summer on our vacation here. As it turns out, it was apparently muggled before we tried it, and was replaced at some point thereafter. No wonder we couldn't find it! Anyway, it was an easy find second time around.
We also ate at Boise's supposedly-famous Westside Drive In. Becky had the popcorn chicken, Misti had a wonderful BLT, and I tried the Cajun Burger. Mine was a little too drippy, but the other meals were great. The cool thing was that the drive-thru window was on the right-hand (passenger) side of the car.
In cool tech, gravity tractors may help save the planet from intrasteller bombardment. In bizarre tech, these two photos are from the inside of one of our old computers, I kid you not:

Now, I've heard of hard drives and floppy drives, but come on...
We scored two toy alligators at our neighbor's garage sale on Saturday for 50 cents. The funny part was that it was actually in the garage (inside). Hadn't really seen that before, despite the fact that that's why they're called 'garage sales', I suppose. It was fully contained within the garage, proper - nothing was on the driveway. Q.: Do the Japanese have garage sales?
Our 'podcast' tonight is an interview with Becky and some podsafe music from the Podsafe Music Network. Tune in here:
Becca was in her very first Primary Program at church yesterday. She loved it - she sat all by herself (with her class, of course, but not with us) on the pulpit (front row), sang loudly and confidently, and recited her part at the microphone in front of the entire congregation without help. She got many compliments after the meeting. =)
