I’m so proud of my high school for how they handled this. They respected free speech, and fought hate with love.

From the San Jose Mercury News article:
On one side of Arastradero Road, the signs read “God hates you.” On the other side, they declared “God hates hate.”
Five protesters from the Topeka, Kan.-based Westboro Baptist Church came to Palo Alto’s Gunn High School and Stanford’s Taube Hillel House on Friday morning to espouse the anti-gay, anti-Semitic vitriol for which they’re known. They hurled blame for the cluster of Gunn student suicides on “cursed Bible-ignorant rebels” whose parents “taught them lies belched forth from the bowels of hell …”
“They’re sharing hate all over the place and we’re going to show it doesn’t affect us,” said 16-year-old Gunn sophomore Ilya Ryzhik.

Visiting the Computer History Museum
Yes, it’s nerdy, but we went to check out the Computer History Museum in Mountain View. There’s lots of cool stuff there, but mostly I came away very thankful that we’ve moved away from the punch-card, huge computer world, to the “web 2.0” and mobile computing world. It’s crazy how far we’ve come in just a few decades! Some photos:
An impressive collection of pre-1990 computers.
Old skool Tetris
So nerdy-chic!
I’m so glad my macbook doesn’t look like this…
The coolest thing in the museum: an Apple I signed by Steve Wozniak!
