Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

Just to prove it can be done:
Today is our twentieth wedding anniversary. We survived a kid, the job markets of one point one Bushes and a Reaganomics, multiple sclerosis, and numerous rescued cats.
Now we're officially working on the next twenty.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

The work deluge has finally hit. I'll probably be gray (aside from brief destressing visits) until sometime in September or until I defeat a balrog, whichever comes first.

I'm taking my driving test this afternoon. This may not sound like a big deal, but I'm 35 and only testing for the second time (phobias are a bitch). Any driving-ma folks can spare around 3:40 PM board time would be appreciated.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
The position I was hoping for now has web design (not program management) as the highest priority. I don't really think it is realistic to hope for this.
