Scott:

And now over to Kent Brockman for some grim economic news.

Kent Brockman:

Scott, things aren't as happy as they used to be down here at the unemployment office. Joblessness is no longer just for Philosophy majors&mdash useful people are starting to feel the pinch.

Bulletins

• i don't think i've ever had so many mosquito bites. wow. thank god for benadryl, and roommates who have benadryl.


• current reading. this guy spoke in menlo park last night, and i have to say, he's cool.


• time flies. you don't even have to be having fun, though it probably doesn't hurt. (and fruit flies like a banana.)


• and speaking of time, i now have a ticket to mayhem. fun fun fun.


• [Edit] oh! i nearly forgot! i had a dream in french! it was pretty awesome. my french n'est pas tres bon, so i spent most of the dream trying to catch bits of what the other people were saying, and frantically working out how to respond--just like in real life. isn't that cool? maybe this means my subconscious is actually fluent.

Pensive

i appreciate the discussion in the comments, and i'll get back to the theology on the table, really i will. just not yet.

i was feeling out of sorts today. minor jarrings, you know, that build up through the day until you're feeling all grumpy and you can't point to why. so i left work on the early side and came home to shoot a few aliens before dinner.

after dinner, dubs and tiger and i watched a pbs documentary on the london air raids of dec. 27, 1940. it was a very good documentary. i wept. which is what leaves me pensive, and a bit at a loss for words. i mean, say you're a firefighter in shoe lane holding a spray of water against a wall of precarious flame, for hours through the crackling night. and then watching that wall collapse on the man who relieves your shift. just say.
