Up with the sun

Was it live, or taped?

It looked taped to me. Glad to hear he was nice -- he seems like a good dad, if not a great racer.

Ok, so there is this object in nature that looks remarkably like a hand flipping the bird (this was a cause of concern when the image went public. There were irate people. It was funny)

I'm reading this scholarly article on the structure, and what do they refer to it as? "The Finger."

The authors are either 12 like me of really really clueless.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

OMG, I just spent a ridiculous amount of time on the phone with the cable company. So annoying. At least everything's taken care of now -- worst case scenario, I've now paid twice.

Now I need lunch.

I can't find a font. Not only a font, but the most important font of the bunch, and the brilliant minds who worked on this project didn't bother to put any fonts in the font folder.

If the brilliant people who worked on this project do not disclose the location of said font in response to my e-mail query, I may be forced to KEEL THEM DEAD WITH MY BRAIN.

shrift, what font?

Or finding it easiest to call a spade a spade.

Well, yes. On the initial release the team went out of its way to avoid that, and even so, they got people blaming them for the obscenity of the universe. Because, you know, we can control that.

Wait. we can't control the universe.

I know! Shocking isn't it?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

If we could control the universe, there probably wouldn't be what was a paper cut but is now heading into gaping wound territory right on the knuckle of my right thumb.
