When your name becomes a verb

If you have been following the Bobby Calvan debacle, this might be one of the best commentaries on it.

a new internet verb, “calvan”

There are few things more powerful than using a noun as a verb. I think my favorite is still “Don’t Leeroy Jenkins this.” Which I once used in a meeting with some tech support guys. Upper management just blinked, but the a couple tech guys familiar with the story nearly wet themselves.

New template

I’ve finally updated the template.. I still need to get in there and tweak it. I first saw this at What in Tarnation.  Hopefully I’ll update it soon so they don’t look identical. But I don’t think we shared readers.  But, that’s the problem with getting a templates from a blog you read regularly. Which bringing me to my next stop on this train of thought: RSS feeds. All my favorite blogs (and news) are in my Google reader, and I’m wondering, will the day come when no one sees your theme?  I’m sure I’ve missed half a dozen theme changes from Tony just because I subscribe to his feed. 😉

Gotta run.. but more on this soon.
