Hey Coloradans! My favorite astronomer/nerd dis aficionado, Phil Plait, will be at the Boulder Science Festival. +10 Internet Points to anyone who uses one of our disses on him at the event.

GEEKS! Come see me at GAYMERX!. I'll be there both days, and I have a panel and a signing.

One last reminder, and I think it'll be too late! We've only got about 50 tickets left for sale for BAH! Looks like it's going to be a packed house, so if you want in, we sincerely encourage you to buy online. We may have some tickets at the door, but I can't promise anything!

On January 26, 2008, a 30-year-old part-time entrepreneur named Mike Merrill decided to sell himself on the open market. He divided himself into 100,000 shares and set an initial public offering price of $1 a share. Over the next 10 days, 12 of his friends and acquaintances bought 929 shares, and Merrill ended up with a handful of extra cash. He kept the remaining 99.1 percent of himself but promised that his shares would be nonvoting: He?d let his new stockholders decide what he should do with his life.
