      • An interesting interview with Leo Dillon, the head of the Geographical Information Unit at the State Department:

        How the U.S. Maps the World’s Most Disputed Territories
        "Seriously, is there a bigger high on the whole face of the earth than eating a salad?"--SeattleUte
        "The only Ute to cause even half the nationwide hysteria of Jimmermania was Ted Bundy."--TripletDaddy
        This is a tough, NYC broad, a doctor who deals with bleeding organs, dying people and testicles on a regular basis without crying."--oxcoug
        "I'm not impressed (and I'm even into choreography . . .)"--Donuthole
        "I too was fortunate to leave with my same balls."--byu71

            There's three rules that I live by: never get less than twelve hours sleep; never play cards with a guy who's got the same first name as a city; and never go near a lady's got a tattoo of a dagger on her body. Now you stick to that, everything else is cream cheese. --Coach Finstock

                Who comes up with these maps? I'm sure that most of these bands are all the rage with hipsters like Grace and commando, how about something for the rest of us.

                  Almost none of the bands are all the rage from the hipster crowd. In fact, all but maybe 5 are abominations to music.

                            Springsteen is from NJ though so you weren't 100% wrong. Jersey still love them some Springsteen.
