I started a cult.

I have my very own cult now -- which is great, because I'm not only the president, I'm also a member. Check out the Cult of iPhone!

Favorite "new" show: Frisky Dingo

I'm not a big fan of cartoons, and now that 24 and Lost are both starting up again, I'm not too interested in adding new shows to the rotation. But yesterday, I just discovered Frisky Dingo on "adult swim" via a clip on YouTube.com, and I immediately downloaded the entire season from iTunes. Each show is only 11 minutes long, and you're laughing for about 10 minutes and 45 seconds of that time. It is in the tradition of the very funny Sealab 2021, although this show has an amazingly consistent storyline from episode to episode, even in the small details. Worth checking out! Especially since if you don't like it, you don't even waste 30 minutes on it. Although I'd suggest watching at least the first two episodes before making up your mind, as the best character, Awesome X, doesn't appear till #2.

Laurel lands a job!

My first two steps into the dark side ...

I just bought two books about programming Mac OSX (which I refer to as "O-S-X" rather than "O-S-TEN" -- because it's fun).

• Beginning Mac OSX Programming (for a quick getting-up-to-speed read)
• Advanced Mac OS X Programming (for information that will likely be more relevant to the iPhone, i.e. Unix-BSD programming tips)

I'd love to get an iPhone specific book and/or SDK soon ... Apple, are you listening?

Thank you, Steve, thank you, thank you!

The iPhone is real! Start saving those pennies for June, when you can get your hot little hands on one. It looks like a winner to me.

I'm jumping off this ship!

I've been squatting on Dave's blog long enough. Anyone who cares what I (Laurel) have to say can read it here.

I'm a famous model!

Check out the Jay and Jack LOST podcast in iTunes or on a video iPod. Who is that handsome T-shirt model at 6:26? It's "Seattle Dave in Hawaii"!

Sawyer on CSI

Normally, I'd just keep flippin' past the channel if any of the various CSI shows is on, but I happened to recognize the guy playing "Kenny" as I cruised past Spike tonight, and my computer's TV tuner has the ability to capture stills:
