AT&T
We had some serious problem with the store's phone line yesterday and the day before... Namely, it stopped working. And what with the big Zendikar Release tournament this weekend, people are calling regularly with questions. Long story short, the help-desk is open 24-hours, but not accessible to business customers?!? Posting something like "AT& ( Read more... ) -

Time to get CLEAN!
So... My place has been a wreck for MONTHS now... I mean, seriously bad. So, when I got home yesterday, we started tearing the place apart and cleaning. Furniture was moved, things were scrubbed, dishes, laundry, etc... Great headway was made, many dust buffalo were tackled! wolf_ygdrassil and I were joined by allhailkush who gleefully leaped into more of the ( Read more... ) -
Shelving...
Worked 'till nearly 7P last night, then headed to the store... Had to move the gaming section to another wall and the shelving had to go up. wolfybrenn came by to collect the old bookshelves but... Well... In Ellen Ruppel Shell's new Book Cheap: The High Cost of Discount Culture, she talks of how quality has been sacrificed in the name of affordability ( Read more... ) -
Weekend #1696 of my life...
I actually did the math... This last weekend was the 1,696th weekend I've ever experienced... Interesting, no? What do you mean no? K... Fine... No, it's not really that interesting. *GRINZ* ANYWAY...
Friday - Woke up early and headed downtown to meet with a debt-counselor. Long story short, there have been cutbacks and pay-reductions at ( Read more... ) -
September 11th, 2009
8 years later... The world is a very different place...
Had the events of September 11th, 2001 not taken place... Around 100,000 Iraqi civilians would still be alive today... As would around 3,000 American civilians.
But the events DID take place... And no matter what else has happened in the 8 years since... You and me? We've lived through it ( Read more... ) -

Ever been woken up by the police? - Revisited
In light of the ongoing drama regarding the Cambridge Police arresting a Harvard Professor inside his home... I just wanted to re-post the following entry from September 12th, 2007:
Ever been woken up by the police?!?
I haven't... But I just came damn close!

The weekend in Review...
Friday - After work, kojakwolf came by and hung out... We grabbed Lobo and headed over to wolfybrenn's new place to supervise painting, after which we dragged tiggyfitz back home. Things seem to be coming together well over there! I'm excited and kinda wish that actual houses didn't cost $700,000 in my neighborhood. (That's a basic, 3-4 bedroom 2-story house on a 25'x100 ( Read more... )
