No, it was the synchronised "Last active" times.

Who the hell is Jergens? Why do you have his bottle?

I learned yesterday what a wall is that is used for trading. It's largest amount of volume of what ever is being traded.

I'm floored that you never Wiki'ed that before.

Never occurred to me to look it up. :/ But learned it by myself.

Let me guess. You're planning a trip to the Mascarene Islands with a new lover, because your old lover found a new partner. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nc9xq-TVyHI (this is one funny post, upon viewing the video, if the reader is familiar with the backstories)

Er, no, it was because of a combination of the Bitcoin100 balance and the recent increase in Bitcoin price.
Seriously, though, it's because Erik Voorhees convinced me to switch my domain registrar to cinfu.com, and I had to look up where the heck it was at.

Hope you enjoyed the video and that it didn't bring back forgotten, unwanted memories.

Today I learned that mysterious short-wave radio broadcasts that I listened to as a kid - of a woman reading numbers in groups of five digits - belong to what is called "numbers stations." Knowing that people came up with a name for it still doesn't teach me anything new, other than that I wasn't hallucinating. Or is it a mass hallucination?

I had a notebook where I was writing down numbers and attempting some childish cryptanalysis - little did I know it was all a one-time pad.

...a one-time pad. 

(Smiley mine) I found that humorous if you meant it as a play on words (fad), coupled with the following life experience.

Shortly after becoming a winning poker player in Las Vegas, I felt it important to keep track of all my expenses. I did so with six-column ledgers. I kept this up for just shy of two years. I only have one ledger left, the others lost to Katrina, and still find myself reading it about twice a year.

It's funny how I felt it important at the time to write down that I found a penny on the ground, waitress tips, Walmart expenditures, and even giving a bum a buck and another exactly $.57, freeing the jingle from by jeans. I even incorporated diary-like notes in the margins, glad I did so now, for to this day I can still fantasize about this waitress named Nanette.

Heard through the grapevine that a new Bitcoin Magazine issue is forthcoming. A sneak preview?

I was sleeping and had a weird dream that I had forgotten to send someone some merchandise for over a month, and they were sending me PMs wondering where their stuff was - but I couldn't figure out or remember what it was that I hadn't sent. The weird dream woke me up.

So I got up logged into bitcointalk and I actually had personal messages in my inbox that someone had just sent me BTC and wanted to buy something I was selling! The PMs didn't say what it was they wanted though, so I was searching through all my past posts trying to match up how much they paid with my listings, trying to add up the cost of items to see what they wanted. The aggravation of this also woke me up - I was still dreaming!

So I learned that I dream about Bitcoin two inception levels deep...
