Caught this advertisement on a local store while stopped at a light. I’m not entirely sure what a “sextional” is, but I think I want one. Or two… Though maybe I don’t want one if it makes your stool soft…

VLC hacked my system!
Well, not really, but they did include a neat little (what I assume) easter egg. Watching a video today I noticed the icon was odd. Checking the help->about shows the following screen. Crafty.
More plugins!
I’ve added a few more plugins here. You can now see my Twitter updates on the Sidebar, as well as social site submission links to each post. WordPress is some pretty impressive software, I must say.
