Deepest Sender is a Livejournal extension for a Mozilla-based browser called Seamonkey. I've never seen this "SeaMonkey" before, but there you have it. Anyway, it looks like quite a cool little blogging plug-in that's also compatible with Blogger and a couple of other blogging tools.

Supposedly.

Turns out to be not very friendly with Blogger, at all. That last, single sentence posting, was all I was able to get through Deepest Sender without it yaking on "Your XHTML is not well formed. Please check your tags." Actually, it's probably Blogger that's yakking on it, but that's not so much the point to me, the end-user. this looked like a hot little extension that would be quite cool by automating everything in posting and doing it all in a pretty way.

Know what seems to have made it yak after that previous post? Here's the complete text of my next posting:

WTF?! Why did that last post go through?

THAT is what Brainless Yakker crapped out on. "Your XHTML is not well formed. Please check your tags." What XHTML tags are involved in THAT?!

If I sound annoyed, I am. No, not because I feel like I'm not getting my money's worth, I just feel like I got my hopes up because it sure is a well put-together interface and simple, yet allowing me a little bit of basic formatting flexibility.

If you don't expect to use punctuation in your Blogs, I highly recommend this extension. VERY nifty extension.

(I suspect it may fly better with this "SeaMonkey", but do I really need another fucking browser? IE for all the pages that aren't happy w/ anything else. Firefox for my everyday/everything browser. Opera because I paid for the fucking thing. Flock because it's pretty slick on blogging & Flickr and generally got some innovative shit going on.

Okay, okay: I don't use them all on the same machine, but I do use them all. I wish Flock were a little more reliable. I just upgraded to their newest release, 0.5uck1t, I think, and now its blogging and flickring is all fucked up. I don't need another goddam seamonkey flocking up my firefox and making an opera out of it!

Heheh. I bet you think I think I'm pretty funny, don't you? I think you'd be right.

Flock it. Time for bed. Hasta la beta, Buckaroo.

What an odd sensation.  Must investigate this further.

The tendon in my knee has freaked out, again! Wed am it felt stiff after I got to work. An hour later it REALLY hurt. It's the tendon behind my knee, on the outside. I've been icing it and eating ibuprofin but it's definitely getting much worse. I'm on crutches and can't drive my stickshift, anymore!

Yeh, I'm at the doctor's office, now, first one here this morning!

I'm falling apart! I set exercise as a priority last fall, and I meant it and followed through with it... Well, for a month, anyway.

"The Dome Car
Aboard the American Orient Express

The 1953 glass dome of this railroad car has "only 72 seats, and you go up into the dome for a 360-degree view of the stars and the scenery. It's a flashback to another age," Begley says. "It makes you wanna neck." There's a seven-day wine tour called "Coastal Culinary Adventure" between Los Angeles and Seattle, and many other trips, including "The National Parks of the West" and "The Antebellum South" (between Savannah, Ga., and Washington, D.C.). 800-320-4206; americanorientexpress.com"

New law restricts political interference in science

A new law, tucked away in the HHS appropriations bill the president signed on Friday, also prohibits questioning scientific advisory panel nominees about their political affiliation, voting history and positions on topics unrelated to the capacity in which they are to serve.

The Washington Post notes this from Bush's new budget proposal:
"The Army Corps of Engineers -- a congressional favorite that was highly criticized in the wake of Hurricane Katrina -- would be cut 11.2 percent."

Jeezus, Fuck! No, I'm not surprised, I'm just shocked! Congress shut down TIA, yet Bush continues to use it!

My carrots don't look like this, but if they did, you can be sure I'd be eating my carrots every single day!
