So, LJ made a new layout available this morning.  I think I kinda like it, though I'm not sure I don't still like the Component layout better (but Component is only available to paid accounts, which this isn't, yet.)  I've put it in place and futzed with the ugly default colors somewhat.

Comments?  Flames?  LARTage?

Word has it the Ohio legislature just passed, by a large margin, the state's first CCW bill.  The governor is expected to veto it, and the legislature is confident they have enough votes to override his veto.

The governor's objection?  He wanted journalists to have access to the name and address of every CCW permit holder in the state, in the full knowledge that they intended to publish the list.  How stupid can you get?

Fortunately, it seems the legislature is going to protect Ohioans from their governor's lack of common sense.

...just to prove that NOBODY is immune from marketing tie-ins, there's a new toy for all those folks who watched the Matrix movies and want to be Trinity or Neo.  Yes, you can now buy your very own Matrix Special Edition Ducati.  You get to choose from the Matrix 998 or the Monster Matrix 620ie.

Do they run in "bullet time"?  Nope.  No spec changes, as far as I can see.  Just an all-black paint scheme.

I never thought I'd see Ducati releasing a special-edition bike as a move tie-in.
