From our "Island People are Stupid" dept.
A news rag in the UK is howling for sword control. Next it'll be "pointy things" control, then "hard things you can lift and swing" control. Life is a terminal condition folks, it has certain inherent risks.

The Big Fish
The Pleco is too big to wedge into his hidy hole today. Sorta fun to watch him try, though. Big sucker. :-) -
A good day
The division I work for is being reorganized.
I have a new boss. He has a new boss. His boss had a face to face with me and asked if I was interested in taking on "a larger role" in our team. Yeah, I can do that. Gotta go do the happy dance now, see you later. -
All computer games suck
So yeah, I play a few, and I've enjoyed them. But really, I can buy a pack of cards for $1 and wear them out over a period of months or years, without getting bored.
