    Read that they are removing the Seinfeld episode where George’s fiance dies from licking an envelope… but they didn’t manage to cut tonight’s syndicated Simpsons where the Y2K bug causes planes to fall from the sky.

    So sleepy. Did a ridiculous thing yesterday. Ron was waiting to get called in to sit on standby all night so I ditched work early, got a haircut and went to dinner with him. Then he went to O’Hare and I went home – got a lot of work done on a database for a […]

    Well friends, I did the un-thinkable. In an effort to cut costs and reach solvency by the end of this year I have temporarily suspended my cable modem and cable TV. The modem went off immediately. I really wasn’t using the fast connection for more than Limewire or stuff like that so I don’t think […]

    I’m all a-giggle. I just ran spell check on a HTML presentation and luckily it caught the following sentence… I’d meant to type: Places responsibility for development in the needs of the individual; you ‘own’ the data but instead I’d typed: Places responsibility for development in the nads of the individual; you ‘own’ the data […]

  • (It is 2:15 am and

    (It is 2:15 am and I can’t go to sleep. I stayed online until about 12:30. IM’ed with Ron till 11:30. Timmy was online too – he wants to be friends again – we were never really friends in the first place – he still blames me for stealing Richard from him even though Richard […]

    I’ve been having the urge to get a tattoo again. I keep obsessing about this for a few weeks at a time. Yeah, I know it’ll look faded when I get older – but it’s on that list of things I think I’ll regret having not done. Maybe I can convince Heather to dive in […]
