New Jake Busey Fan Site Discovered!
1999-05-28 00:25:38
OK, well, not really. But LeeAnne's site has a listing of her favorite actors and actresses and Jake Busey is ON THAT LIST! He's right after Corey Haim and Corey Feldman, as a matter of fact. It's also worth mentioning that LeeAnne is Canadian. Perhaps we should take a moment to reconsider our fears and prejudices towards people from Canadia. Maybe we should stop believing those hoary old wives' tale about how Canadians eat babies and spit on pictures of the Pope.
Although she doesn't have anything specific to add about Jake (other than that he's on her list of FAVORITE ACTORS AND ACTRESSES, along with Tom Cruise, Christian Slater and Alec, William and Stephen Baldwin), LeeAnne has lots to say about herself. Her birthday is March 14th, 1978, for instance, she's about 5' 3" tall, and she has a dog named Alf. Also, her favorite sports are basketball and darts. And she has a web poll up where you can vote for "Best Boy Band" (I voted for The Moffatts.) She also claims to be a Web-o-holic and invites you to click on a graphic so that you may receive information on joining that club; perhaps you, too, will be able to one day proudly display this amusing graphic on your web page!
Wouldn't it be great if we had a contest where somebody like LeeAnne could win a date with Jake Busey? Hmmm... we should talk to Jake about this pretty soon.

John Dvorak has passed. I’m of mixed emotions. First off I’m more positive about his contribution to the overall technology journalism of the early PC days through the 90s, despite how many things he got wrong. He was a firebrand and commanded attention. (More...)

A Day in the Life of a Beverotologist
It was starting to look like a very boring Saturday, trapped as I was in the suburban wastelands of the outer Bay Area, so I called my Able Assistant (AA) and proposed that we perform some Spocktail field tests. For some time I've been working on creating the quintessential cinematic beverage and even tho' SMRL does most of its testing during nocturnal hours, this seemed an opportune time to roll up the sleeves of our labcoats and get some science done. While the beverotology creation tested this day (The Neurotoxin) must be deemed a success, this article focuses more the journey of the experimenters, rather then the science of beverotology.
