Well my LCD monitor turned out to be a dud. After it warmed up and not until I had a certain brightness of background did I notice some intense burning on the screen. And to think I didn't realized that burning of screens was still a problem these days. Looks like I was wrong. Gladly they are taking the monitor back (as they should) and it's back to the drawing board and my 15" laptop screen.

the lowest common denominator

Never be scared lowering your pride to the level of a child. A lot can be said about the child in all of us. And just how are laws made?

31 and still kicking

Survived another year. Had a great birthday yesterday despite spending most of it studying. Did get a nice walk on the beach to watch the waves. And at 31, one still gets great gifts. Just got to find time to set up my weather station with anemometer (wind speed gauge). Also got some mukluks, tickets for greg brown, a german chocolate cake (like my mom used to make for me), some rubber frogs to put on my monitor and watch over me, and a wonderful breakfast quiche. Looks like another beautiful day. Glad I'm not in the Midwest struggling through -20 wind chills.
