SXSWi was fun
We’re back from a fun weekend at SXSW. I’ll write up some details on a few panels later. But here are the highlights:
- Jon and Heather Armstrong are sweethearts.
- Andy Baio, where you put your links, and Jason Kottke, who is good for links, both need sandwiches.
- Whoever’s responsible for the Design and Social Responsibility panel should be shot.
- Ruby’s BBQ STILL makes the best home fries on the planet.
- Scott Beale is EVERYwhere. (He took that picture.)
- Michael Buffington had children because of me.
- Yes, that WAS me in the Podcast Pickle suit.
- Oh yes, there’s the Mena Trott thing I can’t talk about.

That was you in the pickle suit? Can I tell you that the urge to tackle you every day was an urge so extreme, it hurt me physically not to do it whenever I walked by you?
Not because I don't like you. But because, come one, who doesn't want to tackle a giant pickle?

Yes, it was me. I hope everyone enjoyed it.
Those mascot suits are TOTALLY foamed out, by the way. So the next time you see one and get the urge, tackle away!
