Flock Still Kicking Around
I still like the Flock browser. It's going to get Firefox 3's ROCKING performance boost, soon, too. Good for blogging, of course. Or journaling, diarying, recording, shizzling, etc... (Can I still say 'shizzle', or has that train left the station?)
Blogged with the Flock Browser

Firefox 3
The Good News: This thing flies!
The Bad News: It doesn't like my favorite extension, Swiftabs. For faster switching between tabs, Swiftabs remaps the keys near my left hand. So, I hit F1 to go left, F2 to move on to the next tab to the right, and F3 to close the tab.
Maybe FF3 flies because it doesn't like my SwiftTabs extension...
:(
The Less-Bad News: I found a trick whereby you can edit the minimum version # of Firefox within the extension, itself, and try your luck. It worked well for me, but is a pain in the ass to do for all my extensions. No, there aren't that many, but I don't have time to edit them all.

The Best Soundtrack in Several Years
Battlestar Galactica produces a new soundtrack for each season, and I've only just found the soundtrack for Season 3, published back in November 2007, and it is a powerful, mature piece of music that thrills me all the way through. It is vivid. Check it out.

Craigslist: Image Preview Extension for Firefox
Ooo! Me likey! This extension gives you previews of any images on the following pages, within Craigslist! Okay, it makes their layout look a little sloppy, but I can live with that in exchange for these previews. Very nice. Go git some.

Dad: Why, cows of course.
Son: Oh. ... Daddy, why do we eat cows?
Dad: We eat cows because they taste goooood, Son!
I'm a pretty funny character, you know.
