I am Zerocool
Right now IÕm coding. My mind is operating in a hyper-connected nether-realm of computer code. My physical body has withered away, leaving only my mind, communicating with the computer in object-oriented languages. I am a hacker, only responding to the name Zerocool.
Actually, IÕm not coding. IÕm taking a break to blog. For the past two hours IÕve been working on a computer science project, an efficient C++ implementation of Skiplists.
While coding, I listen to old episodes of This American Life, a weekly radio program from WBEZ Chicago. They have most of their archives available online in RealAudio format.
I highly recommend:
The Fix Is In, about FBI informant Marc Whitacre helping to break the Archer Daniels Midland price fixing conspiracy.
Christmas and Commerce, in which David Sedaris recounts tales from his job as an elf.
By the way, Coca-Cola owns the brand “Jesus”.

mj and i listened to “the fix is in” while driving to nebraska over spring break. this american life is the best thing to listen to in the car. i also highly recommend “meet the pros,” wherein ira gets addicted to gambling and some guy talks to the kid from the bouncing basketballs nike commercial. it’s pretty sweet.

Coke are no longer claiming to own Jesus. They’ve taken it off their brand list page at least.
