Forgive me if this has already been posted everywhere (I'm hardly reading any sites, so I wouldn't know), but I laughed oh-so-hard when I stumbled on this page about why Leonard Nimoy Should Eat More Salsa.

From the "I Love It When A Friend Gets Slashdotted" file:

Bruce Schneier submitted a newsbit on a patent being given -- 67 years later and it made slashdot. Cool. In other Schneier news: there's a signed galley copy of his forthcoming book up on eBay (since being mentioned on slashdot, it's been bid up a fair ways).

You can read about the book here and you can pre-order it from amazon, too. It's a Good Book.

I read all feedback and do my best to respond with, at the very least, a thank you. If you'd like to email or snail mail me cool stuff (for this weblog or not), I'd love that.
