not falling down

Over a year after I posted it and expected it to blow up, the video Lisa and I made of Master Chief breakdancing is the second result on Yahoo’s video search for breakdancing, and is currently by far my biggest referral. It’s also the first thing to use more bandwidth than the kids on MySpace and Xanga who use old mp3s I host as the autoload music for their pages. Don’t do this, kids.

In the lobby of each floor in the building where I work is a yellowing, framed floorplan, with the fire stairs clearly labelled. Today I noticed that the one on my floor had been pulled off the wall (leaving a different color of paint behind) and replaced with a much newer plastic frame labelled “EVACUATION PLAN.”

The piece of paper in the frame was blank.
