I was a little out of touch this weekend, what with spending Saturday trying to get all the stuff done that you can't get done on Sundays or before 7 a.m. and after 6 p.m. on weekdays, and then being near a super-duper computer that had lost its internet connection most of the day Sunday.

Naturally, this also meant that I didn't get anything packed in anticipation of moving next Saturday. I think this means I'll be a little out of touch for the next week as well.

Nothing like outright panic to get my ass in gear.

Oh, and starting next year, parking at my bart station is going to cost $2/day. This means I'll either have to take a bus, walk, ride a bike, or more likely, I'll drive to the Daly City bart station instead.

And were you aware that the 2002 Chevy Blazer's gas mileage is 2 mpg less than it was in 1985?!?!?! That in 17 years, it has stepped backwards from 20 mpg to 18 mpg? Amazing. Truly, fucking amazing. [via TechReview]

Direct quote from the article:

"... with no mandate from Washinton or outcry from the public, the auto industry has little motivation to change."

Happy Monday.
