here's a great article form the motley fool on investing in companies with integrity.

i guess i'm just being naïve thinking that if i keep just picking-up-and-hanging-up on "unknown caller" calls, they'll eventually stop. if only the modem i bought supported caller-id, then i could just route the calls to oblivion. i could have sworn that i asked for anonymous call rejection when i signed up for caller id, which would be screening them out. i guess i should just fork out the $4.75 to get it activated now.

for no particular reason other than because i could, i added a feature that allows for commenting on individual items here. just click the comment link after each entry. (yes, this is very much modeled on blogvoices and dotcomments.)

this has fun illustrations of discussion participants. if you've been on a mailing list, monitored a message board, or even skulked about in chat rooms, you've met some of these people.

i had an apple and an orange with dinner tonight. while i enjoy apples, i have to say the orange was better.

some random websites of former coworkers.

here's a bunch of rice milk and horchata recipes. i may have to give it a try. the store-bought stuff is pretty expensive ($3.79/half-gallon). i need cheesecloth. this site also has a lot of interesting-looking links for the non-milk-drinker.

earlier today, i was going to write my thoughts on this and dave winer's reaction to it (which he has since de-linked from the main scripting news site). but i realized i don't really care. i've been baking bread instead.
