Clever.

I don't usually watch America's Funniest Home Videos, because I usually find it more depressing than funny, but tonight I was flipping by and saw the funniest video of a dog that had been left home alone. Closeup of the dog's face, as the dog is chewing something, although we can't see what. Slow widen and pan to see the utterly destroyed living room. Truly a sight to behold.

I know, this actually relates to something you mentioned, but I'm learning.

Oh, I am no role model. That segue thing was cool. I think if the kids see it, it could very catch on. Soon there will be conversations that flow. Logically. In an easy-to-understand how point A led to point B and calls back to point P.

Me? I just lose the linear and can rarely find it again.

Sleep now. Great to post with you, lib. Enjoy (?) the snow. I know you had been low for a while.

Sleep sounds good. I'm doing okay, and it looks like we might even break a record with the snow. Plus, I'm heading to CA in less than a month, so it's all good.

By the way, late April would be a great time to visit the Bay Area, or the central coast just a little earlier. IJS.

Sleep well.

I just love my short, short paragraphs.

I seem to have inadvertently fallen into the habit of balancing my checkbook on Saturday morning, which strikes me as the right choice between obsessively updating and not ever checking it. It also helps that both my bank and my credit card company will let me get .QIF files to import into my Quicken, so the actual amount of typing and figuring I have to do is quite reasonable.

I suppose it also helps that at the moment I'm reasonably flush, which is quite the reassuring realization at the end of each session.

'morning.

A blog I frequent is having a sorta' contest to see if anyone can figure out what this is: [link]

My guess is that it's some sort of medical device. Maybe a radiation treatment thingie?

Here's the blog entry: [link] Scroll down. Although I want the thing above it, whatever it is....

That's a cool blog, Tom!

Connie, that's funny. Early Saturday morning has become the time when I go to town on my bills.

Heh. I need to balance this morning as well. I don't always do it on Saturdays, but often.

Top o the morning to you!

Heh, around here today it's "Avoid Drunken Bostonians Day".

Yesterday my boss discovered Powerizers, which are a cross between pogo sticks and stilts -- they functionally turn your lower legs into kangaroo springs. It turns out there's a bunch of Powerizer vids on Youtube, like this one:

(The spelling may actually be Poweriser, because I believe it was invented in the UK, at least the ones I've seen for sale seem to be imported from there....)

I look at these and go, wow and also: I would kill myself.
