Fred: So you don't worry that it's possible for someone to send out a biological or electronic trigger that effectively overrides your own sense of ideals and values and replaces them with an alternative coercive agenda that reduces you to a mindless meat puppet? Shopkeeper: Wow. People used to think that I was paranoid.

not necessarily good news, but a cutiehead mac story:

set-up, I have been emphasizing mac's birthday because the calendar in Ethiopiais all different, so it is a new day to him. Anyway, he has it all memorized now and asks about it fairly often.

Cute #1 - last night he asks very timidly if he will get presents on his birthday. seriously worried that he wouldn't.

Cute #2 - the he asked if he would get birthday for year 7 and 8 and 9 and 10... also or if it was just for 6.

Whereas I'm stuck with Ch-ch-ch-changes. Ah, the musical stutter.

the he asked if he would get birthday for year 7 and 8 and 9 and 10... also or if it was just for 6

You told him it was just for ages divisible by three, didn't you?

Ooooh, that's some kind of cute. Does he know about the cake yet? And the general air of You Are Super Special?

I told him about cake he seemed not to care. and so many of his days since 12/4 have been all about YOU ARE THE MOST IMPORTANT THING EVER LET ME GIVE YOU SOME MORE ATTENTION. That I am not sure he would grasp that.

I have food. I am hoping that the spicy curry will help me unthaw from my trek across the river.
