Bjorn worked up a pretty sweet scanner for SCons that understands dojo.require statements. If you’re using SCons and Dojo, definitely take a peek.

Moving On

As of Friday, I’m moving on to a new gig. The last few years with Bloglines have been fun, but it’s time to do something new. Thanks to everyone at Bloglines for making my time there memorable and for working together to make a great online feed reader.

Ben’s Famous Margerita Recipe

Sep 21 2008. 2 comments.

Is this classic? No.

Is it famous? Oh yes.

  1. Squeeze three limes and one lemon
  2. Put into a graduated containment vessel, like those fancy Oxo Good Grips ones
  3. Look at the amount. This is one part.
  4. Add one part good, but not great, tequila (I like Hornitos Reposado)
  5. Add one part Grand Marnier. No really.
  6. Add 1/4 part simple syrup (which for my purposes is one part sugar, one part water)
  7. Put in shaker.
  8. Shake.
  9. Pour into glasses, optimally lined with a nice sugar / salt / lime zest mixture. 2 parts salt, 1 part sugar, unknown but appropriate amount of lime zest.
  10. Enjoy.

Here’s my little contribution, which works with http://hasthelargehadroncolliderdestroyedtheworldyet.com/ but requires that you be running GreaseMonkey.
