Steve said "it cloned my usage" which, when taken out of context, sounds funny however not as funny if you say "it cloned my weasel". Is that judgmental?

Song lyric from zefrank
"Did your invisible baby
drink some invisible potion
or did you just cover it
with some invisible lotion"

Winter color out today.
Not cloudy, not cold,
just the quality of light.
Autumn leaves.

Jeff's 16 year old nephew is in the hospital with brain damage after getting hit by a van. Brings me back to Rachelle's accident. Cars kill and maim us, make us weak and flabby, damage the planet, makes us do bushiness with crappy countries, yet its like a god given right to drive one (I am no exception). Not to mention all the god-damn money we spend on them. They also bring us to Key West in the winter, Nova Scotia in the summer, California at christmas.

If it's brown your in cider town.

Visiting kid's work places.
"That appliance over there simulates a lower intestinal track"
"That old bent over apple tree was a pain to pick because many of its branches are on the ground"
"Try the carrot juice"
"The geese come up from the river into the parking lot and hiss"

Compassionate upright monkeys doomed to worry?
From listening and understanding someone's struggles to trusting that it will turn out all right? Answer next time on Dr. Phil, if you dare look him right in the eye.

Hackneyed and described every which way New England autumn foliage makes the off ramp from 95 North onto 4/225 look pretty cool.

The crappy new IP phones here at work remind me of a joke.
Dick: "The food at this restaurant stinks"
John: "Then why do you eat here?"
Dick: "Large portions"

Siren song of fog reluctantly left behind,
wonderful obscuring,
all enveloping fog.
The fog has left it's gift although
hard pressed to put into words.
I miss that fog again.

I smell my pencils after sharpening.

Go ahead, leave a comment.

While the average programmer (OK, me) might be wondering if Oracle 10g really will provide the scalability needed for his employer to prosper....

The number of individual E. Coil bacteria that the average programmer (me again) excretes in one day averages between 100 billion and 10 trillion.

Its taken the United States much longer to excrete 300 million people (that's not me, I am only responsible for two) by October 2006.

Take that USA !
Borrow from Sunday to play Saturday.

There are four or five trees outside my window at work. There is no breeze at all and leaves are falling of their own volition a few at a time. Whether they are yelling Wheeeee or Oh my God I can't hear through the glass that has on it drops of rain pointing towards the center of the earth. The landscaping crew cleaned up today but by now you would never know it (unless the lawn mower tire tracks in the grass give it away to you). The sky is grey however still several shades lighter than the air conditioning equipment on the building across the way.

I found this article an interesting way to look at something, I do every day, a little bit differently.

Interlude: Meditation of the Week:

"To the angry driver, wish peace.
To the speeding driver wish patience.
To the aggressive driver wish compassion.
To the hesitant driver wish skill and confidence. "
