Things change.Later, I became responsible for firebot, after the other IRC bots gradually went offline, I took over mozbot development, such as it is, as […]
Things not to do to stay healthy…
Simple list… (1) When cleaning up and moving, dust or wear a mask… (2) Don’t stay up for 45 hours straight, including at least 2 hours in-transit (3) All meals are mandatory, even if you can’t see straight, eat. Failure to follow these simple steps… results in.. sickness.. ugh.
Ghosts of the Past…
Things… Big events… Little events.. One liners, even.. Haunt me, weeks, months, even years later… Even if I wasn’t wrong. and much more if I was. I catch myself thinking about them, when I’m not doing anything else, or just laying down and thinking. I try to put them to rest, and let things go, […]
Can you say “Accident”?

3,000 Dead, 18,000 wounded…
‘ The war against Iraq has cost the US more than 3,000 dead soldiers and 18,000 wounded… The figures are close to those of 11 September with the slight difference that the war in Iraq is still going on… Despite this, President Bush, without any shame, says that the decision to wage war was the […]
This Space for Confusion
The post that used to be in this space, was removed, because it made no sense to anybody but me. Though, for what its worth, the post itself was based on feeling left out of a friend’s visit, when that isn’t the case. Communication issues suck. Mood Music Post Follows…
