Apparently one of designer Paul Smith’s patterns is a pixel-by-pixel copy of a Flickr image by Robert Hodgin (who wrote the Magnetosphere visualizer that is now the default visualizer in iTunes, and who has also been an immense help to me with my Processing code)!
Robert says, to be fair, that the “birds” in his images [...]

If you were to point your browser here, you might find a special (and ridiculously silly) Red State Soundsystem Halloween cover. Because I love you. And I was really bored on this late Saturday night / early Sunday morning.

So he got himself a wire bread rack, replaced the crappy plastic shelves with hardwood, and stored not only his computer [...]

I broke down and went to UMC.
It wasn’t a salivary stone at all. Mea culpa. I was wrong.
Instead, I have been told that apparently the entire lower half of my skull consists of four severly impacted wisdom teeth. One has punctured my maxillary sinus. Another is disrupting the movement of my jawbone. And this one [...]

So I definitely have a blocked sublingual gland. I’ve been alleviating the symptoms by…well, you don’t want to know. I seem to have a salivary calculus, or stone, in my sublingual gland under my tongue. I’ve been trying to dislodge it (which is ungodly painful), but I think it’s too big.
