A few items to discuss:

1. This guy has some issues. It's people like this that give gamers a bad name. (Still, I cannot help but wonder if it was staged...)
2. I've now forwarded 3 story-type emails to Kitsune. I would be pleased with myself if it wasn't for the idea that my spam filter is breaking down.
3. Condor Condor Condor Condor Condor Condor Condor Condor.
4. As I was typing this, Kelli came home with a pizza that has no tomato sauce. This means I can eat it. (I love my sweetie.)
5. Punk Kitty!
6. Kelli and I saw Over the Hedge last night. It wasn't the best, but it was good.
7. I've started playing Second Life off and on. That game could end up being a money pit if I let it, but it's still free to play if your main activity is roaming around as a virtual tourist. If you run into Blake Omegamu, say "Hi."
8. BESMd20 update will occur shortly.

Rule #1 in Life

File this one under stupid criminals.

When paying for merchandise with a stolen credit card, make sure you're not using the checker's own card.

I now have an excuse.

The American Visionary Art Museum sent me a free admission coupon because of Teacher Appreciation Week.

A return trip to Baltimore's Inner Harbor should be planned.

Mwa-hahaha.

Ugly details ensue.

I'm sick.

I don't know what I have, but I'm sure it's a cold of some sort.

It started on Friday with just a sore throat, even though it was a planning day and I spent most of my time not talking at all. After helping my youngest sister move yesterday some of my family members didn't feel too well either, but they said they felt better after breakfast this morning.

I wasn't so lucky. When I got home this morning (after midnight counts as this morning) I downed a dose of nighttime cough syrup and zonked out, feeling a little better, but this morning another dose of cough syrup did nothing for me as evidenced by a series of throat tearing sensations as I hacked up plenty of mucous. I ate some ice cream to ease the pain and went back to bed.

... and stayed there for most of today.

I know I'll be better tomorrow, though. Why? Because I'm teaching tomorrow and I refuse to take a sick day for myself. Inventory time is approaching fast and I need every day I can muster.

What the ... ? #9: Shirts and Ties

Manager: We need a way to sell more of our shirts.
Employee: Sure thing. Any ideas?
Manager: I know! Make the displays look like they're having fun.
Employee: Sounds good. What kind of fun?
Manager: I don't know - look, just pick something you like to do in your free time.
Employee: Ummmm ... ok.

Of all the ways they could have positioned those arms, they had to do it like this.
