…With rye toast and marmalade, Metropolis Spice Island roast coffee.

I’m starting work on the second floor today, so I elected to prepare a special breakfast commemorating the ribbon cutting ceremony, as it were. Also, cooking is more fun than drywalling.

So today is the Chicago Pride Parade.  It’s been in the news a lot recently not only because it’s kind of a big deal every year, but this year marks 40 years since the Stonewall Riots.

Here’s the thing: I had no idea what the Stonewall Riots were.  So I googled it to find out.  (Relevent result: here.)

What was more interesting to me was the Google result page.  Here’s a screenshot:

google_pride

Notice anything?  The dividing line between the header and the results section?  It’s not usually like that.  I thought maybe Google had changed all the results pages to have the rainbow, and I assumed they’d have a special Google Doodle for the day.  Not the case.  I did a handful of searches, and I got the rainbow divider for “gay pride“, “pride parade“, and just plain old “gay“.   Anyhow, I always get a kick out of finding little easter-egg type things online;  they make otherwise boring web-surfing a tad bit more interesting.

  • Natto for breakfast! Hooray! (It is kinda weird eating it with a fork. Need to get some chopsticks.) #
  • Faux moussaka was good, albeit tardy. Natto+garlic+cumin+pepper=awesome, but natto alone already=awesome, so…? #
  • The dog is chasing a fly around the apartment, biting at it. I hope he catches it; it's really loud. #
  • This is annoying me: http://tinyurl.com/nonevv #
  • @ccbayer Thank God for… Uh.. Dehumidifiers? (Man, I miss central air.) #
  • Softball tonight, kickball tomorrow. Sporty! #
  • @ccbayer You'll probably have a hamburger for lunch and complete the cycle. #
