A while ago, I upgraded all my Ubuntu installs to Edgy. My laptop still seemed fine, but the fonts on my other machines (work, desktop) were messed up. I searched for a bit, and then just gave up and dealt with it. I upgraded recently to Feisty, and it didn’t fix the problem, so I searched the web some more.

I went to the Dodgers/Padres game with Ryan and Wil last night. It was the 60th anniversary of Jackie Robinson’s first game in Major League Baseball. The pregame ceremonies were very well done, and it was overall a great tribute. Mike Cameron of the Padres, and the whole Dodger team wore Robinson’s retired number 42.

The Dodgers won 9-3. I have pictures up in my gallery or a flickr set.
