I emerge from the quietude only long enough to say a couple things:

First, the new iBook/MacBook might be announced tomorrow, and that gives me great joy as I may decide to buy one some time next month since I've been obsessing about it for about a month now. And since obsession isn't healthy, I simply have to buy the laptop when my current contract is complete. At least this is the happy little lie I tell myself in order to justify.

Second, as many of you know or are about to find out, my birthday is on June 18th, and I turn a spritely 32 this year. In a haphazard attempt to retain my youth, I've decided to become "awesome t-shirt guy." Along these lines, you can get me anything from Threadless. I'm a size L these days (curse that tasty, tasty food). Or, you know, an iBook. That would work too.
