<blockquote>
<div>So did DOJ really pay $16 for muffins? Of course not. In fact, it&#8217;s obvious that someone quite carefully calculated the amount they were allowed to spend and then gave the hotel a budget. The hotel agreed, but for some reason decided to divide up the charges into just a few categories instead of writing a detailed invoice for every single piece of food they provided.</div>

<li>I don&#8217;t like the new toolbar at the top that WordPress implemented for its bloggers.  I felt like the last one was better organized.  This one breaks down links into too many sub-categories and some of them are redundant.</li>
</ul>

<li>Anyone who remembers Myspace, i.e. over 21, remember Tom?  <a href="http://www.facebook.com/myspacetom">He&#8217;s got a Facebook</a>.  And he&#8217;s apparently a Facebook corporate whore now.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Speaking of FB, it keeps making chatty noises at me when I&#8217;m not actually getting IMs.  I&#8217;m not sure what it means.  Is this the side news feed thing that everyone thinks is useless?  Whatever it is, it&#8217;s annoying.</li>
</ul>

<li>I will not be live blogging the debate tonight, mostly because Fox says it&#8217;s going to be 2 hours long and I like not sitting on my ass for 2 hours.  It&#8217;s 9:30 and mostly it&#8217;s just been talking point after talking point, &#8220;You&#8217;re book lies!,&#8221; and a classic Fox-noxious crowd.</li>
