15 Fat Men Attacking Twitter? I wore deodorant today. I wanted to tweet that, but I can’t because Twitter is down due to a Denial of Service, a.k.a., a DOS attack. I also can’t tweet that I’m going to eat leftover roast for lunch because I’m certain all of my followers want to know. In any case, I love the analogy that a DOS attack is like 15 fat men trying to get through a revolving door at the same time. Twitter, watch out for the fat men!
Pretty Much No One Went to see “Funny People” “Funny People,” the Judd Apatow movie with Adam Sandler, didn’t do too well at the movie this weekend, taking in short of $25 million. That might be a lot of money to you and me, but to the movie folks it stinks. I didn’t see it, either, mostly because it’s a gorgeous Sunday and I didn’t want to spend 3 hours in a theater for a movie that might be 1 1/2 hours of funny, 1 hour of sad, and 1/2 hour of trailers and popcorn eating.
