Just heard on WBBM that the hotel in the Trump Tower is open, while they are still building the tower part. A 2 bedroom suite on the 19th floor goes for $2600 a night.
If I had $2600, I’d probably do something different.

- I either need new tires or its really farking slippery out, or both. #
- @bkmcae I agree. Most view all communications. We would they want to hear from members or *gasp* the public. #
- @zemote I always feel not cool enough to go into a W. The one time I stayed at a W (in New Orleans) was a week of unworthiness. #
- Man, my blog got hammered due to something mentioned on a radio show. Behold the power of Google. #
The secret to getting a lot of hits on your blog
So, apparently, to get a shit load of hits on your blog you need a popular afternoon radio show to mention something you mentioned once on your blog and is among the top three hits. My server was having a nice little load and traffic spike as a result.
My unique visitors just today are half the number of last month’s. And one page got 810 hits in just 45 minutes.  For my little dumbass blog that’s mostly become twitter spew, that’s pretty good. I’ve now reconfigured the web server to not load spike like this again.

- @maigrey At the hotel I was at last night a room was so close to the elevator that they shared a corner. People coming out both will crash #

- At a kid’s party at a McD’s playland. It is insanity. Dinah is doing good for her first school-friend party. #
- This is weird. Uninstalled APE (which I should have done pre-leopard) and upgraded logitech control center, now SSHKeychain crashes. #
- Funniest comic book concept I’ve seen in a long time: http://www.moonstonebooks.com/milf.asp #
- @declan one of my guys keeps a whole wardrobe in his cube. Its pretty crazy. #
- Okay, looks like the SSHKeychain thing is a known issue. APE must have been hiding it somehow. Now using @ddribin’s keychain locker. #
