The next fruit on my quest for the citrus Holy Grail was a pomelo . It tasted like a grapefruit but without the bitter. It acrually tasted very pleasant. I keep hoping there is some other citrus flavor that is as unique to the other citrus fruits as orange or lemon is to lime. I guess the subtle nuances between tangerine and orange, mandarin and the other orange-a-likes are interesting but my absolute favorite right now is meyer lemon

The problem was that it is almost the size of a volleyball and the
skin is so thick. The ugli fruit from my earlier journal was much
easier to peel and eat. I managed to peel it abou 10 minutes. Each
section was in a leathery fiber pouch. I don't think I would ever get
one again.

One good thing about buffalo. Everytime I go down in the buffalo
subway I am amazed at how clean the tracks are compared to everywhere
else I have ever visited.

I was working with CSS for HTML lists today and decided to look over the specs for list-style-type options. I was fully aware of image, disc, squae, circle, alpha, latin, and greek but what surprised me was the inclusion of georgian and armenian numbering options . How did they make it into the basic CSS spec for list types? It seems like such a small isolated part of the world.

Armenia Numerals

Georgian numerals don't even have a wikipedia page.

Can you believe this? I hope the facebook people die. If the U.S. goes further in this direction than I am leaving.

Facebook received a patent for:

"dynamically providing a news feed about a user of a social network." In the most basic terms, this means Facebook has patented technology that delivers the stuff filling up your newsfeed like shared

Think how ridiculous this is. Its one thing when you do something unique but "dynamically providing a news feed about a user of a social network." is something that was going on way before facebook.

The ugli fruit sure is ugly and the taste is not unique enough to warrant looking at it. It basically tastes like a tangerine.
