The wondrous valley of knowledge that is Wikipedia sucked me in again last night, bringing me to something called the Jargon File, an electronic tome that dates back to the days of MIT's Tech Model Train Club (a whole other article which I won't link to), and found an interesting article within called "The Story of Mel."

I'm trying out this new IM program that allegedly will allow me to update my LiveJournal directly from it. I guess I'll find out if it actually works...

So I felt inspired tonight, mainly because I've been in the house all day with this stupid cold thing (no, not swine flu...I hope). So I went ahead and tried to write a one-act play. It turned out to be more of a one-scene play, but since I haven't tried writing something like this since high school (oh, so many years ago), I think I did pretty ( Read more... )

I just undid my note importing to Facebook from this journal. I figured I had enough Web 2.0 loops flying around...didn't need another, really ( Read more... )
