so…the other night I was on the train coming home from class, and I found a magazine tucked between the seats. This is not odd, especially on the train just after rush hour. What was odd was that it was a Playboy.
I have always wondered about people taking too much advantage of “their time” on […]

so…I’m hoping that spring training is almost over. I played Reilly this weekend, and got handed my first loss, and I played Druzba twice tonight and dealt him a proper beatdown each time.
Actually, the first game was aDQ on the DR, due to unsportsmanlike conduct (read: disconnected while losing); it was 5-1, Red Sox over […]

Da Vinci’s Notebook - Title of the Song
Frank […]

so…on Thursday morning I had the pleasure of having a convo with my boss. Not just any convo, but one that I had dreamt about for years…
“So, I won the lottery yesterday…”
unfortunately, it did not play itself out the way it does in my dreams: I did not quit my job; I did not place […]

so…there is a project at work that I’m working on that will track changes to items in our database based on the user that made the change…nothing crazy, or out of the ordinary about that.
In the past, we’ve just assigned all changes to the system. Well, the user id for the system is “69.” It’s […]
