And now I can check this one off the Bucket List.

I’m in San Francisco this week covering Macworld Expo for TUAW. It’s so exciting. This blog will probably be quiet for the week, aside for the occasional pics and non-work updates.

So, check TUAW for MWSF updates and here for personal experiences.

Two men restore the 1957 home of architect Arthur Witthoefft with stunning results.

The Catcher in the Rye by J.D. Salinger. Grosset & Dunlap, 1952. A Michael Mitchell dust jacket design. Gorgeous.

A passage from “2001: A Space Odyssey”

“When he tired of official reports and memoranda and minutes, he would plug his foolscap-sized Newspad into the ship’s information circuit and scan the latest reports from Earth. One by one he would conjure up the world’s major electronic papers … Switching to the display unit’s short-term memory, he would hold the front page while he quickly searched the headlines and noted the items that interested him. … the postage-stamp-sized rectangle would expand until it neatly filled the screen and he could read it with comfort. When he had finished, he would flash back to the complete page and select a new subject for detailed examination.”

At least our food’s better.

I *heart* Kubrick.
