today's random observations
Oct. 29th, 2003 03:29 pmToday is Boomtime, day 10 in the season of The Aftermath, 3269.
The sun is out for the first time in three days, and I'm getting glare off of a white truck parked outside my window. I'm feeling better already.
Sorting one's iTunes library in alphabetical order by track is almost as good as hitting shuffle. Parts of what's played, in order, so far (2.4 days worth left!):
Some people have taken the idea that "if you're going to post a rant, please don't let pesky things like facts and accuracy get in your way" far too much to heart. (This is not meant to be indirect communication with anyone likely to be reading this.)
Mastering mod_rewrite is truly one of the dark arts and probably requires a much bigger sacrifice than anything I happen to have on hand in the office. Wonder what I'd get for sacrificing a rubber chicken?
@Stake issues Mac OS X advisories
Why on earth do I need to be protected from pornography? They also could use a proofreader, who might have caught that they left a word in as "exploi-ta-tion". Or was that intentionally left in because Bush can't handle words more than three syllables long?
Insert gratuitous plug here for
nikkinewsnet.
Watching last night's "Nova" episode on string theory would've been even nicer if I hadn't had someone in the room ranting about how the proponents are complete crackpots. For that, I missed "It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown"?
