Cruise: I'll eat placenta
Uh, ew. Tom Cruise is not just acting crazy these days, but eating crazy. Though, there are apparently recipes for this kind of thing.

To kick off the kid’s spring media fest, check out this video of Riley, where we chat about important things like breakfast and sisters and such.
I was talking online with some folks the other day, and I suggested that we all create a new post of our worst job interview ever, and build a big linkfest. Well, here’s my interview post, and everyone else is welcome to join in.
I was working at Arby’s at the time, my first job after college. The pay sucked and the work was worse (meat jello?) and I was anxious to get out of the food business entirely and do something productive. That’s when I found the ad.
The help wanted ad wasn’t very descriptive. I don’t recall exactly the wording of it now, since it was so long ago, or what really drew my eye to it. I think it read something like, “Self-starters with management potential wanted. Start on ground floor of art warehousing business. Great money, great hours.” In all, anything was more attractive than slicing meat for 20 hours a week, so I called the number. The job, while still not explicitly defined during my phone call, sounded intriguing. They invited me to an interview to check out the operation and learn more about the job. So began my wildest interview ever…
I’ve been looking forward to this month’s WordPress meetup all week. Colin made mention of it via the 9 Rules blog, and that got a lot more of the Philly-area bloggers interested, if not for the WordPress meetup itself, but for the Blogger meetup that immediately follows. It’s really something that I was looking forward to, but it wasn’t meant to be for me.
Sometime Friday evening I started having severe tooth pain. I did not enjoy dinner, and when I got home the pain was so significant that I hardly slept.
Today is not the first day I’ve heard someone reference a web site and say, “Look at that cool shelf!”
What the heck are they talking about?
Maybe you’ve noticed it on my site, and maybe not because my design is purposefully inconspicuous. There is a small tab just under the masthead on the right side that says “More Stuff”. When you click on it, a large area slides open with a bunch of information on it. This is the “shelf”.
Personally, I’ve been calling this thing a “slidebar” (as opposed to a “sidebar”, no “L”), but I guess the Mac naming conventions apply somewhat. I first saw this type of thing on Shaun Inman’s site. But I’ve since seen it spread around to other sites, too.
Wanna learn how to make one and add some WordPress stuff to it? Let’s do it!
