'Day' is a vestigial mode of time measurement based on solar cycles. It's not applicable. I didn't get you anything.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Something I did not know: George Roby Dempster invented... the Dumpster!

(I mean, aside from it having a cute name that immediately tells you what it is, somebody had to invent it -- I mean, nothing quite existed like it before even though the need is so very obvious.)

I'll bet the printer-hating cat doesn't let them read the newspaper in peace. Good thing they don't have a faxmachine. Or need a fax machine. It'd be kinda pointless.

This morning smells of fried server. Fun!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

ION, how the fuck did I turn the game off early last night? Feh.

Me too. But just before 11:00 I heard people in my building cheering, so I turned it back on to catch the end. That game was fucked up - we totally should not have won. Oh well - dem's da breaks....

That's especially funny for me. If you're on Hwy 94 and you want to go to Evanston, you take the Dempster St. Exit. In order to remember that street name, I used the mnemonic device of picturing a dumpster. (No, I didn't know the connection until now.)

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I just found out I'm getting an award from the Legal Aid Society for Pro Bono work!

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

That's awesome, bon bon.

Congratulations!

Something is not right when I have to be the one to tell the server admin that computer support is working on the problem with his server. Why don't they tell him?! I'm not even in computer support!
