Would that I have my wits about me
Everything was fine when I woke; it was only when I got to work that the hangover set in. What more do you need in life than a little
grappa and a little
Scrabble? (In the tiny victories department, we managed three 7-letter words in ten minutes.)
Bob Metcalfe : What if I-commerce were restricted on weekends?
You know, I tend to agree that trying to regulate the hours an e-commerce site is "open" is pretty goofy on a global level. I do not, however, think that the efforts of people to try and insure a quality of life we have come to expect and enjoy need to be subject to this kind of petty sarcasm. [These] are complicated and important issues that need to be addressed because we all still breath the same air. Just because I might want to be a keener doesn't make me more special and someone else a loser. To think otherwise, from what I've seen, is often just ego-fucking.
Eye : Build your own toboggan
"Our sensible friend Julia points out that a toboggan's front must be curved, or else it will dig into the snow and flip its passengers head over heels. Ouch. She's right. Luckily, I have the fluted lid on a big plastic garbage pail, hanging around our kitchen unused. A few pieces of duct tape later, and the toboggan has a curved front." mmmmm...
duct tape.
