The next "thud" you hear...

[mdlbear]

... will be the Mandelbear falling asleep. (Actually, it's too early, but...) Got really sleepy this afternoon, and decided more-or-less by default that nodding off while catching up on my stack of unread magazines was better than endangering either my 20" monitor, my beloved IBM model M keyboard, or my code base. I may be able to walk for an hour at lunchtime, but I'm definitely not over this cold.
