Chalk another LOST character’s death up to DUI! People! Get a cab.

Daniel Dae Kim, one of the star’s of ABC’s hit TV series, “Lost,” was arrested by Honolulu Police officers early this morning for allegedly driving drunk. Kim was released after posting bail and waded through media with his head down, and without comment. … The characters of Rodriguez, Watros, and Akinnuoye-Agbaje were all written off of the show in the season following their arrest.

Update: Daniel Dae Kim has apologized in a podcast. I have to track the podcast down. If you have the link please put it in comments.

If architects had to work like programmers.

Dear Mr. Architect:

Please design and build me a house. I am not quite sure of what I need, so you should use your discretion.

My house should have between two and forty-five bedrooms. Just make sure the plans are such that the bedrooms can be easily added or deleted. When you bring the blueprints to me, I will make the final decision of what I want. Also, bring me the cost breakdowns for each configuration so that I can arbitrarily pick one at a later time.

…

You must be thrilled to be working on as an interesting project as this! To be able to use the latest techniques and materials and to be given such freedom in your designs is something that can’t happen very often. Contact me as soon as possible with your ideas and completed plans.

PS: My wife has just told me that she disagrees with many of the instructions I’ve given you in this letter. As architect, it is your responsibility to resolve these differences. I have tried in the past and have been unable to accomplish this. If you can’t handle this responsibility, I will have to find another architect.

PPS: Perhaps what I need is not a house at all, but a travel trailer. Please advise me as soon as possible if this is the case.
