i definitly love the last story i don’t know why?
:-)
thanks amanda !
Heifer is the real deal; they’ve been doing great work for years. Most of the people you’re giving gifts to don’t need more crap; do this instead.
I love rocketboom.
Hi Amanda,
I love the tshirt today. Ah, the old routemaster. Nice to see someone still appreciates good ol’ British public transport. (At least, I think we still have public transport over here.)
Cool show as everrrrr
i just got a new mobile phone and it “wants” 320×240 video. it plays mp4 or wmv as preferred, but mov isnt an option. (sprint ppc-6700 model). just curious if you might have plans for a 4×3 aspect version (tho i love the widescreen flava of the newer shows). fyi that the mp4 version at 320×240 happens to be the same as the video ipods out there. just a thought.
ps- i want to do some 3d animation for you guys! hilarious stuff. vidit my gallery at http://www.visualz.com. im thinking over the top opening uber-chrome news type deal (over the top?! go figure).
keep it up.
Classic Boom.
For British weather we’ve got the BBC website which gives you forecasts down to the very street you live on. It’s also got a bit of a cursory glance at weather around the rest of the world too
I’d like to sell my own country, the USA. With Bush in control pretty soon we’re going to be a bankrupt, useless country.
The US federal debt is now $8.26 trillion, states’ debt is $1.9 trillion, yet guess how much revenue the government is bringing in? Only $2 trillion.
Meanwhile 70% of the big corporations aren’t paying a dime in taxes.

fyi - tried the mobile version but got errors when i clicked the link. this is windows mobile 5.0 and its native IE browser. i also tried on “thunderhawk” which is a different browser i added (paid for add on to the phone) and it also just loaded a page of ascii nasty. the torrent coming down now.
You raise a good point about Weather.com . GM hacks are old, get something from the underground!
Today’s RB was very compressed and looked like crap on my computer. This is off the regular quicktime feed via iTunes. Any reason you down sampled today’s show?
For me the best U.S. weather-map site is still.
http://www.weather.gov/
You can just click this map and get that same NOAA local weather info. Plus, if you’re in to TMI, they got “Avalance Watch”, “Gale Warnings”, and “Craft Advisory” as well.
SO…..
I was interested to learn about you after your NPR spot. What a scream!!!!!. Can you possibly send the daily report directly to my email or shall i continue to go to it independently.
Keep up the terrific work

Amanda…You and Leila (aka Alexus) seem to be fixated on balls.
so i was wondering if i could have heifer.org send those poor starving kids a carton of camels…probably the turkish blends.

hi amanda and rocketboom family!
somethings were being written about you in the magazine last weekend.ı wondered and read.now ı m thinking they re completely true.greetings from turkey
Haha. Love this post. The magic balls was great. keep up the good work. Amanda should do a report on http://dailydancer.com/ . BTW Canada is not for sale. Egypt might be.
Booooring stories
but they were told great :-)
check out my songs

Canaduh! will cost you $2.22 or $2 US.
plus GST & PST (those are rip off taxes found in this vast country )
Was that a fart I heard when you lifted your leg while dancing in the last segment?????
Sounded like a fart. A swedish fart… you know
Did you leave a farrrrrrttttt?
(swedish singing accent)
For reference watch an Ingmar Bergman film…
Weather Underground has a nice google map hack, it links to personal weather stations. You can move the map around and the map will update. Here’s my local map

Have been using heifer for gifts for many years. Gave a flock of geese as a wedding present last fall.
Musical balls–entrancing or seizure inducing??
Regarding the Muglets:
Is anyone else trying this on Safari? It doesn’t seem to like it when it comes to altering the mask. Camino works just fine though.
The musical balls link reminds me of a great music app called MetaSynth. Check it out at http://uisoftware.com/MetaSynth/
What a great time to be alive!
I feel sorry for the poor bastards inheriting the world from us though…
Great show today!
Question: Will Rocketboom be covering the grand opening of the new Apple Store on Fifth Avenue??
http://www.apple.com/retail/fifthavenue/week/20060521.html
02 days and 22 hours 18 minutes and counting…
Should be fun… and maybe a first look at the new MacBook just released today.
Heifer.org is great!
but I think “pets” is not the right word for the animals the people receive.
Just thought I’d point it out … :-)

Love the Blogs on my TIVO !
Amanda You ROCK!!
Hi Amanda,
Thank you for stepping up… your Rocketboom is again a pleasure to watch!
Please keep on doing the great work.
