Mr. 43 Folders himself Merlin Mann was of course at Macworld last week and filmed a couple interviews for the fine MacBreak program. These interviews are interesting if you're a Mac geek (and I am) but we're most interested in the "Abide" shirt Merlin is rocking in the videos.

That shirt is a fine example of the superior quality materials our friends from Lebowski Fest have sent out into the world. You should buy one. You might also considering buying a sticker or other Abide materials.

All this reminds us that the 7th Annual Lebowski Fest is happening July 11 and 12, 2008 here in Louisville. Being the 7th annual event here in Louisville is cool enough but when you consider this year is the 10th anniversary of the film's release, well then you know that excellence will abound. 

Don't forget, one week from today is the Louisville Geek Dinner.  Described as a "social networking event for people who love technology" it's bound to be great fun. I'm definitely going to be there so make sure to say hello.

WHEN:   Thursday January 24th 2008 @ 6:00pm EST

I'm an unapologetic geek so I'm terribly excited about the next edition of the Louisville Geek Dinner which is on January 24. Any thing described as a "social networking event for people who love technology" sounds like fun not least of all cause I bet there will be other introverts discussing really interesting, geeky things (other introverts be sure to read How To Network: For Introverts) and that's always fun.
