Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

In one of the articles about the cake thing, they mentioned that DYFS had already been in contact with that family. One of the things that they insisted on was that they take the swastika off the family car, since they said it was dangerous to drive toddlers around in a car that was attracting negative attention like that.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

In my office, if there was an inauguration party, my department wouldn't be allowed to go (remember, we are the department who isn't allowed to listen to the radio, listen to music, talk to each other about anything non-work-related, or make or receive personal phone calls on the company phone; if the entire company was subject to those rules, it wouldn't suck so bad, but it's just us).

Oh! And relatedly, I know I forgot to tell this story: we're behind in production, and incompetent!boss told us last week that, because we're salaried employees, "we" (which never means "him") have to be willing to work more than 40 hours a week due to the "dire circumstances."

And then he said -- I wish I were making this up -- "On 9/11, newspaper reporters couldn't just tell their editors, 'Sorry, I only work until 5:00, I'm going home!' "

Because being late with a pharmacy journal is JUST LIKE thousands of people dying in a terrorist attack. JUST. LIKE. IT.

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

Crap. RIP Patrick McGoohan.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

today was BK Wed and for that I am happy.

I am navigating through piles of paper on my desk. Such a mess of invoices and notes. I hope to get at least 25 things off my desk today, so far I have only removed things temporarily (off for approvals).

This is amazing--a man sculpts art that fit in the eye of a needle, and even smaller!

Coding and Sleeping

I'm listening to Astronomy Cast. Dr. Pamela Gay may have the best voice in podcasting.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Crap. RIP Patrick McGoohan.

Oh, no.

Did you know that the entire series of The Prisoner is up at the AMC website? I'll have to watch those this weekend, I think.
