Slightly Off-Topic

For those that haven’t seen it, the story of Leno’s new ride is here. The "Ecojet" runs on biodiesel, but I can’t imagine that it is particularly fuel efficient. "Naturally it sounds like a taxiing jet even at idle, great coils of heat roiling out of exhaust vents behind the engine" seems to be the key phrase regarding it’s eco-possibilites! As a male, I am, of course, totally geeked out by this, but I suspect it does not reflect the wave of the future.

Today’s sunday comic contest is a bit different than the past. I don’t know the artist and she doesn’t allow comments, so we’ll be creating the code from her existing strip. 1 bat = 1123 points. 1 cat = 295 points. Go find Gisele’s latest strip about the cutest little chocolate-eating vampire ever and calculate the code from the current strip (chapter 2 cover page). Then go to the start of the archives and have a quick read. I am intrigued.

…and what is the deal with the heat in Washington?!?
