The Pigs of Commerce

Apple rings don’t taste as good as apple chips. Noted, moving on.

Last real day of school today—though we still had an economics exam, which split the class cleanly in two. Tomorrow is the Christmas fair where we’re selling pizza, and I already know I’m going to eat at least half of it myself, given that I’m hungry right now and there’s a pizza in the oven as I write this.

I’ve been flipping between Fettes Brot on TV and Home Alone—yes, I know, everyone’s seen it a thousand times, that’s not the point—and somewhere in that channel-surfing I got into the whole question of ads on this site. For a brief, embarrassing moment I had an iTunes banner running where the brilliant green lyrics used to be. It looked like shit. I pulled it. The choice between making some money and keeping the thing looking intentional is, apparently, not much of a choice for me.

Also landed on a topic for my IT presentation: Apple. Obviously.
