She gave me a really cool gift, an embeddable mechanical <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/scriptingnews/93354298/">music box</a>. They sell for $2 in a bin at a hobby shop in Boston (or somewhere nearby). Here's a <a href="http://static2.podcatch.com/blogs/gems/snedit/DSCN4953.MOV">demo</a> of my box playing Row Row Row Your Boat. Isn't it cool? She says the little thing is rugged. Her two-year-old throws his around everywhere.

It's great to have this be a topic of discussion in the tech blogosphere. Long overdue. I wasn't sure we could do it without an overwhelming number of flames, but there have been <i>none. </i> Mon, 30 Jan 2006 17:03:59 GMT http://www.scripting.com/2006/01/30.html#When:12:03:59PM <a href="http://scripting.wordpress.com/2006/01/28/what-is-friendship/#postscript2">Postscript</a>: "In a court of law you're entitled to cross-examine your accusers.

Now, my article about <a href="http://scripting.wordpress.com/2006/01/28/what-is-friendship/">friendship</a> is <a href="http://tech.memeorandum.com/060130/p2#a060130p2">on</a> Memeorandum, an unexpected surprise. Part of this thread is about language, as Frank explains, he uses the term friend in a different way than I do. Now that I've written this piece, which is based on a lifetime of learning, I can probably loosen up a little. Even though others may not know what I mean by "friend," at least now <i>I</i> do. A tricky subject, to say the least. Mon, 30 Jan 2006 07:16:55 GMT http://www.scripting.com/2006/01/30.html#When:2:16:55AM
