Support group went really well. I had a good time leading it. I like leading groups. I’d make a good project manager. Not nearly the turn out I had expected but a great meeting that was very helpful to a new visitor.

Came home tried but stimmed. Time to help the wife then settle to collect my thoughts and regroup for the evening.

Key dates are here for bills. Time is tight for preparing for performances.

Cathy left for her meeting. I had a phone call and found out I’m in the pool for another job possibility with yet another company that I’m familar with. That puts me in active consideration with 3 companies and a total of 5 positions. My new Motorola v400 is already exhibiting some Gremlin like behaviors that are irritating me. I have the Midas touch for electronics. I love them! I know how to do fantastically cool things with them. But they melt with my touch!

Noah and Sarah are home. I need a nap.

Zero Tolerance or George Orwellian High School

Zero tolerance raises alarms “Parents say Katy ISD overdisciplining students for minor offenses” and I’d have to agree.


Bing and other faculty members greet the students as they lift up their shirts and pants, empty their pockets and take off their shoes…
Sounds to me like some faculty are getting their jollies.
Certainly doesn’t sound like school is a fun place to get an education. This article makes it sound more like training for institutionalization.

Politically Incorrect Humor

Two Arabs are sitting in the Gaza strip chatting over a pint of goat’s milk.

One pulls his wallet out and starts flipping through pictures and they start reminiscing.

“This is my oldest son. He’s a martyr.”

“Here’s my second son. He’s a martyr too!”

After a pause and a deep sigh, the second Arab says wistfully, “They blow up so fast, don’t they?”

Yes! Got some cleaning done (put things away not thrown away). And reorganized in the bedroom to better understand what is in our mystery boxes. Identified several to grow through and throw stuff away while everyone else is asleep.

Found some of my books that I’ve been looking for (magic books, music tablature etc) but still not the Jeep manual.

Time to update the list of missing things:

Things I can’t find:

my house keys

– the bathroom caulk

– the two caulk guns

– my mind

– a job

– me

the Haynes manual to fix the Jeep

– time

– most of my tools

my sunglasses

fingernail clippers (neither of the two)
