85%! Almost there!
Did I mention that this format wasn’t just a regular format? I’m formatting, and writing random data on a 60GB HD while screwing around with AutoKDJ…
… so my PC is kinda tapped on the resource front at the moment…
… poor old thing…
… I have no earthly clue as to why I am sharing this…

I just love the way that Hassall speaks on the radio. There’s just something about the way he speaks that differs from the rest of the officers.
I’m bored, sitting at the computer, reformatting a drive, and listening to the scanner.
A guy hit a pole in front of Angilo’s. He has five prior traffic incidents – three in February of this year, and two in 2005. Not a good driver. And the guy hits a pole in a parking lot, that has been there for thirty years.
Anyway, Hassall got the call.
Ooooh…. I’m 17% of the way done on this reformatting…. only 83% more to go!
Yep. I’m bored.
It’s cloudy and 74°.
yippee!
22% done…

So, I’ve got a roast in the oven, a couch piled with laundry to sort, and a reorganized desk…
…and the kids are watching Teletubbies…
“One day, in Teletubbie land, a cloud appeared, and it began to rain.”
… ooh, Po just found a big puddle…
… yay!
… and Dipsy stepped in the puddle!
… what joy!

So, how many times should you tell your son to not put his sister in the closet? Can anyone tell me this? I’m starting to get tired of it. I think I’ll just make a recording and play it back to him on a loop while he’s sleeping…
I listened to the audio of the hot-dog competition on the radio… it sounded like the announcer was announcing for a horse-race… kinda disturbing… interesting how they referenced vomitting as a reversal…
Niv’s trying to give one of her babies a drink…
The kids are home, ’cause they got the poops… as do I… I think it was something we ate…
I think Niv’s gonna be a dancer… I set her on top of the desk yesterday while I had some music playing… she started dancing away…
It is 71°F with Light Rain….
As you can see, I really have nothing to write about…

The Lamest Edit Wars of Wikipedia

Occasionally, Wikipedians lose their minds and get into edit wars over the most petty things. This page documents this by showing some of the worst-case scenarios where obsessed Wikipedians have attached so much importance to some small detail that they fervently revert, dispute, and argue any change that happens.

FYE – the class; not the music store…

I’ve got a little over an hour until I have to go to leave to go to school. And I’m bored.
Tonight is FYE101. First Year Experience. A.k.a. Information Literacy. Fun stuff.
The class is a sort of primer, I guess. It’s supposed to, well, I really don’t know how to describe what the class is supposed to do. Here’s a description of the text, yanked from Amazon:

Book Description
Succeed in college like never before! STEP BY STEP TO COLLEGE AND CAREER SUCCESS shows you how. With the authors’ signature “12 Steps” approach, you’ll see how small changes can make a big difference. Whether you’re looking for better grades, stronger academic skills, or a successful transition to (or advancement in) the working world, STEP BY STEP TO COLLEGE AND CAREER SUCCESS is the textbook you need to get there.

Why twelve steps? I dunno. Maybe they wanted the process to be familiar to students who are recovering addicts.
