Taking the Lamborghini for a spin

This evening I had a Lamborghini with dinner. A Lamborghini 2000 "Trescone" Umbria Rosso ($12.99).

WineLoversPage.com describes it better than I could. I had it with warmed-over pizza that was too hot, and which burned the roof of my mouth, so, to me, it tasted like a full-bodied, earthy red, but I didn't get all the nuances which those notes suggest. Roquefort cheese in a barnyard? Sheesh

The League of Gentlemen

I've been interested in seeing The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, so I was looking around on the web. It appears that not only is it a comic book, but it's also a television show. Having seen none of the above, I'm not sure if they are in any way connected.

The commentary here seems to infer that the comic and the movie are connected, but that the tv show is not.

Look! It's Dionysus

Having spent a little more time playing with Blogshares, I have made over 60K in the last 24 hours (gee, I wish that was real money) and also discovered Dionysus. Unfortunately, I can't read a word of it. Pity, that.

MT software license

So it turns out that, as people have been telling me, the MT software license is in fact pretty not-open. Among other things, it says

You may not redistribute the Software without Licensor's prior
written consent. Although you may modify or create derivative copies
of the Software for your own use, you may not distribute modified or
derivative copies of the Software.

I suppose that's pretty normal for software, but does not mesh with the way that I view the world, and, I suppose, it's pretty clear that I've already violated it, having distributed modified versions of various parts of the software. So I suppose I'll have to find some other package to migrate to. I'm leaning towards Ken Coar's software, if he lets me use it. I expect he'll have a somewhat more open license,

Fix your trackbacks, folks

Evidentally, some people don't have trackbacks set up correctly.
