  " me:  Entropy wins in the end -- the game is rigged -- but that
    doesn't mean you can't put up a good, honorable fight. The main thing is
    not to let it win by default. 
  "
  * bed ~11:30; snuggle

A rather busy day at work, or at least a busy afternoon -- the network was down with router and DNS suckage all morning, so the fact that I didn't bring my netbook to the morning meeting in the Cupertino office didn't matter a bit.

My weight is the lowest it's been all year. Go me!

Went with the YD to her financial aid conference at DeVry. Thanks to long-term student loans it'll be affordable. Well, sorta. At least it won't be the huge hit I was expecting.

Quote of the day, from my reply to a comment: "Entropy wins in the end -- the game is rigged -- but that doesn't mean you can't put up a good, honorable fight. The main thing is not to let it win by default."

Link sausage under the cut as usual. Thanks to HP, you'll soon be able to receive spam on your printer. Thanks a heap.

Congratulations on the weight thing, you should go celebrate with cake and ice-cream :-)

"Entropy wins in the end -- the game is rigged" ... so true ... but like playing Space Invaders or most any other arcade game ... you can't win, you can't break even ... so the secret of life is to enjoy playing the game even though you know how you think it will end this time ... and if you get to the end of this level and meet The Big Boss, try not to kill him/her/it/them!
