Common Decency

| No Comments

If you back into a car in a parking lot, and you fux0r its fender but good, at the very least you leave a note, but even better is you call campus security (who can use the parking pass to track down the owner).

You don't just drive the fuck away.

Rage.

Has anyone ever seen a plugin for MovableType that will allow a blog owner to moderate entries? e.g., I could give people access to compose blog entries, but only I could make them go live? The sort of thing you might use in a shared-blog type of situation where someone wants to be sanity-checking the things that people are making live to the world?

Alternatively, are there any decent pieces of blogging software that handle this nicely with similar feature sets to MT?

It's Funny How The Mind Works

I had originally set aside my tickets for today's game at the beginning of the season. Today, I reasoned, as the last game of the regular season, might be the last chance to see someone like Bernie Williams, or something like that. When the Yankees clinched a playoff berth, I let a friend of mine have the seats instead (he had had some promo tickets to a game with his daughter, but it was one of those "miserable, drizzly, we're-gonna-play-it-anyway" types of nights, so I figured I'd let him go to a game they'd enjoy instead). After all, I've got postseason games to watch now, no need to worry about "last game of the regular season"...

Except then I went to a business event a couple days ago and won, as a door prize, a pair of really choice Loge Championship seats for today's game. I told D "even though it's the weekend before the wedding, these seats are way too awesome to let them go to waste, we need to go to this," and she accepted that.

Now, I'm faced with the dilemma that it's raining like a mofo, with rain, showers, more rain, and then a reprieve of just thunderstorms, all day today. And even though I hadn't even thought about really going to this game until like a week ago, I feel kinda disappointed that I won't get to go. :-(
