If I got up for a 6:30AM teleconference and no one else shows up, I am so very much going back to bed.

Well, going back to bed was my plan anyway. But still.

It's not the 22nd and not the 23rd. It's the Hebrew date of today

Happy birthdays!

So, I was looking through the 2008 MacArthur fellows (one of them works here) and I see that Regina Benjamin is one- she is a phenomenal physician that NPR did a lot of coverage on post-Katrina. [link]

Oh, rad! I was wondering about her when I saw the list. I love the ones where you know the grant has the potential to make a huge difference not only in the recipient's life but in many lives.

I think I may try duct tape.

Is there nothing that duct tape can't fix?

That made me think about checking my DVR but apparently the ip address for my router has changed. Bother.

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

Oddly enough, duct tape isn't very good at taping ducts. It dries out and loses its stickiness.
