David is an occasional blogger, software engineer, Nintendo fanboy, liberal, news magazine addict, voracious TiVo user, and bibliophile. He was born in St. Louis, grew up in southern Indiana, and returned to St. Louis to attend Washington University. He hasn't managed to escape yet. He's a fan of free wine tastings, too many tv shows to name, and eating out. David makes his living developing web applications used internally by his employer. He doesn't blog about work because he's heard too many stories about that causing workplace troubles. There's more on the about page. |

Slow News Day
How does the NY Times fill space on their homepage on Friday night? With an article (and picture) about the fact that white kids in Vermont released a rap video about their state on YouTube. That's all that's in the article. Just the fact that these kids made a video where they wrap about their "802" area code, their preference for "extra sharp" cheddar cheese, and their belief the the Birkenstock is the official shoe of Vermont. The article has no real content. My guess is that some reporter was required to file something, so he just browsed YouTube, found a video, made a few calls, and wrote an article. Lame.
