#1) Welcome to the new TypePad! Your account is now on our new next-generation platform!
Blech...I'd just gotten used to the old "platform." I'm not seeing much that's different, or better. Calling a web application a "platform" is a bad sign. In fact, calling anything but a flat, simple wooden object that you stand on a "platform" is not good.
#2) [ Via Joshua, who writes: ] A Capesize
vessel, which is the largest available for dry goods shipping, cost
$233,968 per day to hire in June. Yesterday the quoted rate was $3,691
per day. I guess the Capesize has capsized. [Joshua's source: FT (somewhere); Wikipedia entry for capesize ]
This can't be good either. The whole world seems to be grinding to a halt.
#3) Cal 9 point favorite over Stanford in tomorrow's football game.
Not good for the 1941 Rose Bowl rematch.
