Insuring your weenie: Krehling said the policy covers anything that happens to anyone or anything in a 50-foot radius of his hot dog cart, advice which includes him and his customers. Thanks for the link, Bill.

Just talked to my wife, who just talked to my sister. Apparently my nephew hasn’t worn pants since Saturday. Seems he’s more likely to use the potty when he’s not wearing pants.

Gruber on Dvorak’s article: This really isn’t worth debunking point-by-point. Just remember that Dvorak is pulling all of this out of his… [expletive deleted].

Quiz: How well do you know these world-famous products? My final score: 60 out of 100.

The Girl Who Cried Webmaster: We took a table in the quietest spot I could find. I told her that I’d met with Whistleblower. At the mere mention of Whistleblower’s name, her face darkened.

John Dvorak: Right now, all things being equal, Apple should be able to grab half the market for operating systems. If it’s as aggressive as Microsoft was with Netscape and essentially gives away the OS to the installed base, Apple could possibly knock Microsoft out of the box completely.

You know, whenever someone mentions Verizon, I think of Terminator 2: Judgment Day. Why, you ask?

Remember the scene where T-1000 (wonderfully played by Robert Patrick), who was previously invincible, was frozen with (I believe) liquid nitrogen and shattered into a billion little pieces? That’s Bell. Then, when things warmed up, all the little pieces melted back into liquid and reassembled into T-1000 again. That’s Verizon. Think about it.

And if you haven’t seen T2, go rent it. Very good movie.

Gruber analyzes Quark’s recent statements. Please excuse the profanity.
