This Morning
Beautiful rain today. Very heavy. Thunder boomers so loud and sharp that it sounded like it was on top of the house. I like the rain.
My eyes hurt and aren’t focusing well. It’s part sinus and part strain.
Grind grind grind.

Posted by djuggler in : Daily LifeThis splash is well done! It’s anti-Bush and has sound. Warning! The word “asshole” will come through your speakers several times and once you will hear “shit.” But what a terrific presentation!
The comments lead to some other great links (funny as well as emotional):
Country Song: Takin’ My Country Back
Musicians to Oust Bush
RealVoices with commercials such as The Children Left Behind
NYTimes: John Kerry for President
Bruce Bartlett, a domestic policy adviser to Ronald Reagan and a treasury official for the first President Bush, told me recently that “if Bush wins, there will be a civil war in the Republican Party starting on Nov. 3.” This is a must read!
CIA Report on Iraq’s WMD
List of wars crime et al (not so sure about this one. Didn’t look deep enough to see how legit it was) (major dejavu right now!)

This Morning
Slept deep last night. Needed it badly. At one point a character on television screamed and I bolted from the bed with intent to check on the girls and the wife reeled me back in. I wonder if my first heartattack will be because of someone on television.
My throat is giving me warning signs that a sickness is coming. Ages ago I would have rushed off for some echinacea, vitamin c, a multivitamin and probably another supplement or two. Today I think I’ll drink a little extra water and take the stairs intead of the elevator.
I really would like a day off.

Posted by djuggler in : Daily LifeHere is the latest splash (spoof flash movie): Political Bohemian Rhapsody (WARNING! I don’t know if it was a coincidence or not but my popup blocker went nuts around the time I closed that window) This one is average. I watched the whole thing and enjoyed it. Was never tempted to end it.
Progress! October 17, 2004 5:20 pm
Posted by djuggler in : Daily LifeProgramming on this beautiful day has been really slow going. I would have loved to have limited myself to 2 hours then worked on the yard or the garage. So frustrating!
About to switch to chef mode. After getting the kids down I will return to programming.

Posted by djuggler in : Daily LifeHow to Catch a Fly (no chopsticks required (amz))
A fly will tend to steer away from something approaching it in the exact opposite direction. In other words, it runs instead of dogging. So the best way to catch a fly is not to grab for it since it will just fly away from your hand. Instead uses these steps:
- reach over and beyond the fly.
- Next form your hand like a claw with fingers toward the floor and fingertips curled slightly toward your body.
- Your arm at this point will probably be fully extended and the fly between your body and hand. Rapidly draw your claw toward your body.
- The fly will instictively steer the opposite direction of the hand and fly toward you. Seeing the obsticle of the body it goes for height but the arm is there to block it. By the time it decides to go to the side you are closing your hand around it.
- Final step, dispose of the fly. This can be releasing it to the outside (or inside if you want to catch it again) or putting it out of your misery. You can throw a fly to the floor with enough force to render it unconscious. Warning! It will revive to annoy you with much ferocity.
Go forth great fly hunter and leave your chopsticks at home!
[Note: No actual flies were harmed in the making of this post.]

This Morning
I went to bed depressed last night. I thought I was going to get some programming done yesterday and had I not opened a single piece of mail I probably would have put in a few hours.
To bring myself up this morning I tried a little self-indulgence then immediately felt guilty over it. Reward before effort is like giving the dog a treat then saying “sit.” I still want to lean toward doing selfish things today.
I have about 3 days of work to get done today and today is shorter than normal since I agreed to take Tommy to D&D this evening.
