  16. If you MJ fans had bought more of his albums before now, maybe he'd still be alive.
  17. now knows the difference between natural and hermite cubic splines. Thanks, smart colleagues.

  19. wonders what previously-unrevealed bad news will be announced today, with the media's attention focused on dead celebs
  20. Tethering iPhone to Mac Pro because ... hmm, how can I put this? ... I'm out of quota!
