Four car pileup at the Huntington/Northshore entrance of my neighborhood with 1 fatality. Wonder if I knew them.

For you ColdFusion programmers like myself, here’s a nice reference. Looks a lot like its using AJAX.

Alright. Let’s see. Pulse? Yes, still alive. Heart rate? accelerated. Ok, stressed. Breathing? Yup. I guess that’s all that counts. Now where are we today? Ah! Ye ol’ box o’ mail hath been emptied! Granted, mostly just moved to another box but sorted with intentions of getting things back in order.

See, once upon a time I knew to the penny how much money I had, what was coming in and what was going out. I even had an account set up in Quicken for "petty cash" and kept all loose change in a lock box in the house to balance the petty cash fund against. Since Quicken didn’t give reports I liked I would also keep records of inflows and outflows by category in an excel spreadsheet. Ah the glory days. Way over the top! But man did it feel good to be able to chart your success (or demise).

Today is nearly the exact opposite. I’m hoping over the next few weeks to come to some sort of happy medium.

Great caption contest!

I really enjoyed Barry’s addition to Michael Silence’s piece on TN Blogging.

Student: What will we do when the lights go out?
Master: Light a fire somewhere.

So young. Will it see greatness?

Once upon a time they hunted here

Just a wash or a road from long ago?

Tails you win
Heads I lose
Negativity in my life
Infused
People out to get me
I didn’t play by the rules
Owe no man
But what if you do
Try try again
Until its evident
There’s no way to win.

The path less travelled has exhausted me. Where’s that other road?

Good colors on the trees

There is an owl in our backyard right now. I cannot find it but it sounds cool!
