So that job that I applied for back in April and interviewed for 6 weeks ago... I got it! I start in a week!
Wesley: Feng Shui. Gunn: Right. What's that mean again? Wesley: That people will believe anything. Actually, in this place, Feng Shui will probably have enormous significance. I'll align my furniture the wrong way and suddenly catch fire or turn into a pudding.

Random bit o' news: City Officials Tell Chick-Fil-A They Are Not Welcome In Wake Of Homophobic Comments By Company President
Chick-Fil-A’s plans to expand into one of the nation’s largest cities has hit a snag, after Boston Mayor Thomas Menino sent a scathing letter to company president Dan Cathy informing him that so long as the company remained intolerant of the LGBT community, Boston would remain intolerant of Chick-Fil-A.
In a letter dated July 20, Menino writes:
You called supporters of gay marriage “prideful”. Here in Boston, to borrow your own words, we are “guilty as charged.” We are indeed full of pride for our support of same sex marriage and our work to expand freedom to all people. We are proud that our state and our city have led the way for the country on equal marriage rights.
Chick-Fil-A had reportedly been seeking property along the city’s famous Freedom Trail, a tourism hotspot and prime real estate for businesses, for its first Boston location. But Menino has vowed to block any attempt by the company to open a new store. “There is no place for discrimination on Boston’s Freedom Trail and no place for your company alongside it,” he wrote in the letter.
Menino’s letter may have been just the first crack in the dam. Yesterday, Chicago alderman Joe Moreno made a similar pledge to block any attempts by the chain to build its second store in the city, proposed for the highly trafficked Logan Square neighborhood whose zoning is controlled by Moreno.
“If you are discriminating against a segment of the community, I don’t want you in the 1st Ward,” he said on Tuesday in an interview with the Chicago Tribune.
The chain, which has stores nationwide and currently ranks as the nation’s 10th largest fast food company, has found itself at the center of a maelstrom of criticism after Cathy’s remarks.
"guilty as charged" - heh.

Woot, woot aurelia!!!
I have a house full of kids. CJ, CJ's girl friend (not girlfriend, he would protest) and her 4 nieces and nephews. It is actually pretty chill for having 6 kids, ages 8 - 16, in one room.
I doubt his protest in that he allowed her to paint his fingernails bright pink and he has an ARP meeting this evening.

I was wondering why I had no new email this morning. And then Outlook hiccuped so I rebooted, and now there's a bunch of new email that I don't want to look at. Woe.
