    USA or…?

    Overheard at the El Paso Independence Day Parade:

    Parade Member: USA! USA! USA!

    Crowd Member: Why is that guy yelling “YOU ESE!”

    Mobile App UI Fail

    This morning, I needed to post a quick note to my team’s p2 about a scheduled standing meeting today I would be missing. I often use the mobile app for posting something short like that (and this post).

    This works well until when I post it to this site instead of the p2.

    Would an “Are You Sure?” be a good idea for publishing?

    Senate Health Bill Reels as C.B.O. Predicts 22 Million More Uninsured

    The figure released by the Congressional Budget Office is only slightly lower than the 23 million more uninsured under the House version of the legislation.

    I intentionally waited for the CBO report before contacting my senators. I’m okay with changing the system, but this doesn’t work.

    Facepile Lives

    Rough, but any new ‘like’ webmention to my site will be given a ‘like’ custom comment type and displayed in a facepile. Still need to convert the existing ones.

    See both previous (for now) and new likes on this post about Fr. Bill.

    Fr. Bill Day

    June 28th will be “Fr. Bill Day” in Austin, thanks to the City Council. He’s done good in his time here and wish him well in his new ministry as Bishop of Pensacola-Tallahassee.

    50% There

    Southwest informed me that I’m over halfway to qualifying for their Companion Pass. With it, someone can fly with me for only the cost of security fees and my ticket can be purchased via points. Where should I go?

    Last time we had this, we flew about four times for ~$100.

    No more coffee in flight?

    They may not tell you, but there are a few things flight attendants would never drink in the air.

    Source: Why you should think twice before ordering coffee or tea on a plane

    Per the article, airplane tap water is really gross so don’t drink the coffee. Do I chance it as the airport-kiosk-coffee lobby pushing us to buy their cups or this legit?
