they have hardware for this, too, if you need even better quality. I'd been looking into it for a podcast I still haven't done. Some really interesting "interview" solutions out there but none I looked at seemed awesome. - Anthony Citrano
This can also count for Morgan as a Movember stache - Josh Haley
HAHAHAHAHA. So which one is you and which one is Morgan? - Trish R
Morg is older. He's on the right. Or left, depending how you look at it. - Josh Haley
btw Trish R, I got lost around your neck of the woods last night coming home. Damn police block on 8 and I had to get home going around the whole lake. :p FM 2100 north is not fun at night with truck tailgating you with highbeams. - Josh Haley
josh on the left, morgan on the right. your left and right. morgan is the taller and cuter one. - Morgan Haley
LOL, Josh. There is one side of 2100 that is NOT very friendly and I'm scared to drive down there during the day, much less at night. Glad you made it home. And btw, Morgan, you look like a cat with your hair sticking out of the bubbles like ears, LOL! - Trish R
That's awesome. And good bubble coverage there. - Katie
put 1 cup of water in tub. me and josh get in tub. tub overflows. *sigh* i'm too much of myself lately. i need to get back on the 'i have no money and therefore cannot shop or buy food' diet - Morgan Haley
Wow. Now I've seen both Josh AND Morgan naked. My life is ALMOST fulfilled. Just need Worthington and Wilson, and then I can die happy. - Ladybug Heather
Aw, lol! Admit it you two: you quit bathing together last month. ;) - Carmen
NOT TRUE! It was at least a year ago. - Josh Haley
I wish I had a scanner ,,, have a picture of my brother asleep on the toliet - johnpiercy
I guess I need explanation on what you mean by appreciated? I am kind to all people even when I am in a funky mood. - jlt
tuesday, just as I got off my bus home, I helped a partially sighted guy navigate down an icy hill and reach a pub that he wasn't sure of its location. - alphaxion
A big part of my job is working with angsty college students and at this time of the year, they're burned out, stressed, and tired. I actually make an effort to letting them know that their hard work isn't in vain, and it's rewarding to help them through the end of the semester. I guess the same goes for fellow staff members too. We are feeling the burn as well. - Derrick
Thanks, Yolanda. Mama and Daddy done raised themselves a man! ;) - Derrick
To borrow a phrase from Yo, whenever my brain cell allows - Michael W. May
I try to do it every day. It's especially important for me to make my wife feel appreciated. With my new job, she has a lot of stuff to deal with while I'm working. She's pretty awesome, IMHO. - ha3rvey
I think this goes beyond being nice, but actually letting people know that someone actually appreciates what they do. I'm quite positive I don't do this enough, but I'm trying really hard to change it. I know I would like it if people let me know I wasn't being taken for granted. - ♫ Rahsheen ™ ★
Thanks, Marco. It's provoking this kind of discussion that's made me a FF lifer. :) - Derrick
It was the realization that alot of the people on here actually cared enough about these kinds of discussions that did it for me - Marco (aureliusmaximus)
Marco, I was hesitant to participate on FF because I thought that the threads here skewed towards tech (and they do), but even still, it's *these* kinds of things that I care about, and I realized there's room for all. - Derrick
I do customer service in my day job, but I'm with Yolanda. I don't do it often enough. Especially for co-workers who've gone beyond what everyone else does at my workplace. - Helen Sventitsky
I wish everyone understood that, Derrick. "there's room for all" :) - ♫ Rahsheen ™ ★
Frequently. I feel bad if I'm caused hurt feelings unintentionally. - Katie
Rah, thanks for making me feel so welcome, dude. Mo talked you up BIG TIME before I committed to really using FF. - Derrick
Thanks Derrick, way to make me feel bad about myself ;). I go out of my way to smile and be pleasant to anyone I meet or come across but other than that no. I also don't do or donate anything for charity. However I don't eat kittens or sexually molest old people so I feel it evens out a bit. - Toby Graham
Toby underestimates the smiles he brings to FFeeders everywhere *chuckle* - Michael W. May

whatever you are doing today, what will matter to you looking back 10 year from now is interactions you had with others, people you met, people you worked with, and how you feel about how *you* were to them... We're so good at complaining and so bad at giving praise, because we see all the good things as "just normal". - Joelle Nebbe
As often as possible. I like making another person's day a little brighter. - Ninjitsu Jason Huebel
Occasionally. I try to respond to emails from people that have helped me with a project or send me a note saying that they're leaving their company explaining that their help and patience did not go unnoticed. - James Ferguson
And often times, I'm surprised by the kindness of people. So much so, that it's shocking it doesn't happen nearly enough. - Derrick
I have learned not to expect it from others though. Most often folks operate on a me, me, me system. I don't really care at this point. I just like to give joy to others :) - Melissa
every day - because I know that all of us need it. - V for Veselka
big fire in my town this am ... glad to be off for a few days , too cold out to be spraying water ,,, - johnpiercy

That is very Shocking and very SAD! I've seen that building all my life and thought that it was very nice looking. I heard that it was being renovated, but never knew much details on it. I didn't realize it was 132 yrs old either! - TechStud
Last night I was with a group of people that told me they don't let their kids watch Spongebob because he is always having fantasies about Patrick. lol - Adriana
My 57 year old mom loves Spongebob. Dad says she'll sit and watch entire episodes completely enthralled. This baffles me. - Daryl aka Lil Trumpet Boy
my eyes. my poor eyes. who lives in a pineapple under the sea? ME! poor blind ME! good lord! - Morgan Haley
well done raoul ... really takes the eye for a pleasant ride ,, - johnpiercy
Hey, Thanks Raoul. The Metropolitan Museum is such an amazing place to shoot in and it is so refreshing to me that they allow photography there when so many museums these days do not. - Thomas Hawk
It just occurred to me, after my recent experience with the break in below us, that a post like this could be risky if you are also using a service like brightkite. All those folks who are continuously posting their whereabouts ought to be mindful of what they reveal about their material possessions - especially en route. I'd hate to be stranded at a desolate bus stop broadcasting about my expensive laptop - in a public twitter with hundreds of followers ... :) - V for Veselka
@Caleb Kallow looks like a great idea! Is it just run by you and Jordan? - Shey
Shey, you'll love it. I have the older model of that line and I'm in love with it. The only thing I wish is that I'd gone bigger. - Derrick
@V Absolutely, people should be very careful. But my Brightkite settings are on Private, so you only see the city I'm in. - Shey
@Shey Thanks for the kind words about Kallow! Yeah just me and Jordan, lean and mean. If you know anyone who might find it useful I would really appreciate it if you could send them a note. That is how we will grow, one note at a time! - Caleb Elston
Shey: good for you. And sweet about the TV :) Christmas is going to be fun at your place no doubt! - V for Veselka
@Jon thanks man! We just launched it today actually. Trying to spread the word a bit. But I know personally having a place to send family and friends is going to be amazing when they start going crazy next week for holiday shopping. "Just go to my new site Kallow" hehe - Caleb Elston
Weakling! *as she furiously tries to cover up her new LCD monitor* ;-) - Far
@Phil I love the TV, the colours, black level, and brightness are EXCELLENT. And my 360 looks totally awesome on it. 32" in definately the right size for the space, I'm glad I didn't squeeze the extra $$$ for a 40". Now I just have to resist getting HDTV cable... - Shey
@Shey you probably don't need cable for HDTV. Most places get 2 - 3 decent broadcast HD channels, just get yourself a good digital tv antenna. I have this one: http://www.amazon.com/Terk-Amp... I have to say, it's fantastic for digital broadcasts. Analog TV, not so much. - Phil Glockner
@Phil @Derrick I want to watch football in HD!!! Don't I need to just buy a HD box? - Shey
@Shey broadcast football games with a modern flat panel TV just need the digital tv antenna (above), no converter box needed. If you get cable TV, be sure to specify you want a high-def model (DVR or no) and ask about their HD sports package. It usually costs extra. As an alternative, you could go with Dish network, they have an all-HD package that looks very tempting. - Phil Glockner
“For the next ten days, when I get irritated that I'm washing all of the dishes by hand because the dishwasher's broken, I will remind myself that it could be worse: it could've been the washing machine that went tits up.”
I don't have a dishwasher. I've always done the dishes by hand. Then I take my laundry to the stream and beat it on a rock. (just kidding about the laundry) - Morton Fox
When I was living alone in the studio, I didn't mind doing dishes; I did them every night and it seems, in my memory, that there were only 3-4 dishes to do. Now, I live with another person and it seems that before me is a wasteland of the most diabolically soiled dishes and pots that demand the kind of attention that would've made Mother Teresa sit up and say, 'Know what? Fuck this shit in half!', and walk away. - Akiva Moskovitz
Or worse - the shower. I don't look like Julia Roberts, so I can't get away with not showering for a few days. - Ontario Emperor
via fftogo
Funny. I only look like Julia Roberts when I DON'T shower. Weird... - Akiva Moskovitz
Husband and I are just now in our first apartment with a dishwasher since we got married almost 8 years ago. Since husband dirties about 12 dishes just to make toast, I'm IN LOVE. - Alix Whitmire ƸӜƷ
Alix, yeah, I change my cooking style when there's not a dishwasher around. Suddenly, I'm eating nothing but one pot meals. - Akiva Moskovitz
I once watched a woman bathe at the laundromat. And it wasn't in a sink. - "Oldengrey" Tannenbaum
I once had several pairs of underwear stolen from right in front of me at the laundromat. Guy ran in, opened the dryer, took them out, and ran away. This was in Paris. Weird stuff happens there. - Rochelle
Cops came for the washing machine bathing lady. She was "agitated". - "Oldengrey" Tannenbaum
Akiva, the way I get around not getting annoyed by doing dishes is to get my meal going and then wash all the prep dishes in the interim. It's a small thing but it makes a huge difference. - TeenageMutantNinjaWilson
my mom had 3 dishwashers when i was a kid: me and my 2 brothers. as for washing machines, i like to visit my ex-machine when i pick my daughter up on friday nights and drop her off sunday nights...i miss the old machine. sure beats the wash-o-mat laundry places, although the company is better at the laundromats! :-) - Morgan Haley
Mark, I do that anyway, even with a dishwasher. I don't like dirty dishes piling up in the sink. - Akiva Moskovitz
Mark: totally. Easy to make. Easy to clean up. And 'mistakes' don't taste so bad that you will throw them away. mostly. - Morgan Haley
"If birds have little birdies, and fish have little fishes, why don't sinks have little sinks instead of dirty dishes?" (a little embroidered sign that hangs over my sink) - April Russo
Akiva, in my house I am the dishwasher. Besides I hate how dishes feel when they come out of the dishwasher so it would take a lot for me to want to use one. - Paul
our firehall just got a new DW ... we use to have to do the dishes by hand ... dishwasher is healthier cleaner and washes dishes better than fireman do - johnpiercy
Plus a dishwasher typically uses less water than it takes to fill two sinks. - Stupid Ninja (aka Tina)
there's this meditation practice "washing the dishes" <-- no lie - anna
or you could put yourself in my shoes; 4 months in Latin countries where they don't believe in hot water in any of the sinks, no dish washer and there is no such thing as a dryer in house. Actually that's most of the planet... - Gina K
johnpiercy: I went over to the firehouse in our neighbor hood and got what they had -- a Kitchenaid (pretty bare bones) and it works great. - "Oldengrey" Tannenbaum

Morton is currently the heavyweight "liker" on FriendFeed. He currently has an astonishing 24,355 likes on FriendFeed. - johnpiercy
Wow, Mike - thanks! Here I am thinking, "oh, goody, Mike's list is out" reading along and hearing about some people I don't follow yet and, well, hey, whaddaya know, there I am. Criminy, I gotta post some of those half-written blog posts languishing on my desktop. - Laura Norvig

Thank you for the mention. This hit while I was away so it took a bit for me to figure out where all the FF love and new people were coming from :) Sometimes I'm slow like that... lol - Leslie Poston
All of you guys rock. Thank you for being such an integral part of the FriendFeed community. - Mike Fruchter
+1000000 for Zee. That guy is all kinds of awesome. And it was great to see Morton on the list. - TeenageMutantNinjaWilson
Nice idea for a post, but its all very echo chamber people. How about those outside SoMe to get diversity of info? - HollowMarkeD
Hi MiniMage. You're right. Tamar pointed that out as well. It is just a feed. My mistake. I'm fairly new here and saw their excellent blog content and didn't think to verify they were active too. One good thing about making mistakes it that it does attract more comments. :-) I'm not new to blogging but I still make plenty of them. - Internet Strategist
