"(c) No person shall possess in a form ready for serving colored oleomargarine or colored margarine at a public eating place unless a notice that oleomargarine or margarine is served is displayed prominently and conspicuously in such place and in such manner as to render it likely to be read and understood by the ordinary individual being served in such eating place or is printed or is otherwise set forth on the menu in type or lettering not smaller than that normally used to designate the serving of other food items. No person shall serve colored oleomargarine or colored margarine at a public eating place, whether or not any charge is made therefore, unless (1) each separate serving bears or is accompanied by labeling identifying it as oleomargarine or margarine, or (2) each separate serving thereof is triangular in shape."

From:FD&C Act Chapter IV

Don’t ask how I found myself leaning in to the monitor, reading this piece of legislation. It was the result of a strange wikipedia-started series of clicks and reads. This passage discusses margarine. The batshit part is the last sentence (and it really is the last sentence of that section). They end strong at FDA - they leave you in a fanciful world where foodstuffs are codified by shape. A special place, that land which you are left to ponder.

yikes, a mac post!

I don’t have an apple tv but I’ve pondered the idea. It leaves me just a little flat.

I’ve been thinking that the Apple TV needs some help to make it great.

The best addition would be an ipod dock. That’s right: sync your stuff via your pod (sneakernet is faster than wireless for sure in this case) plus your buddy could plug his in and you could enjoy their content while visiting. Obviously you wouldn’t magically get all of the foreign pod’s goodies but the feature would be good for get-togethers or sharing TV shows/movies.

The problem w/ above: where would the ugly dock go? The Steve would hate it.

Also: DVR - but that’s an entirely different bag of meatballs.

"(A) word which occurs only once in the written record of a language, in the works of an author, or in a single text. If a word is used twice it is a dis legomenon, thrice, a tris legomenon. Beyond tetrakis legomenon (four times), there is no term for such a word."

Hapax legomenon - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

One of those great vocabulary discoveries that continues to arrive after age 30. I love such words.

I have commenced music reviews on the iTunes store. The album is ‘Unicorn Steak’ by Die Mannequin. I have listened but to the previews; so yes, I am a jackass. Inform me as to your reviews dear readers. My handle is dflatzero.
