I'm gone for a month, Stig comes around for a few swings, LFL is now a happy camper, Mojo is contemplating inventing a time machine so that she can try dating techniques on single Chrome, hairdog's brass balls have gotten so big the Cloverfield guys are using low-res shaky video of him walking around as promo for the movie ... what else have I missed. This place has never been boring, I can say that.
Well, I was invited to start a new thread by the indominatable Corri who never ceases to pique my interest with cryptic words (that's me nodding to Lil).
I was watching Alton Brown make stock on Good Eats the other day. In one scene he was describing how you have to skim this nasty looking stuff off the top periodically if you want your stock to turn out tasty and I thought, what a perfect way to visualize my state of being. The nastiness on top floating around is my resentment. Most days I'm just not doing a good job skimming that crap off. Somedays my hearty goodness inside just gets to bubbling and things are alright. Other days, all you can see is the floom. I'm afraid I'm not the tastiest stock on the block right now.

I just happy right now because Ubuntu sucessfully installed on the old laptop I'm considering using to do IDL/IRAF reductions on observatory photographs. Just popped in and recognized that old video/sound/internet card. If the wireless card and IDL and IRAF install smoothly, i'll be as happy as Blackfoot on an Antarctic dive.
