Bits and Pieces
A collection of random thoughts and observations. I find most of them humorous.
I sincerely wonder why people going to the gym will fight to get the parking spot closest to the door. Once in the gym, they will studiously avoid breaking a sweat. I don’t pretend to understand.
I think the snails and slugs out here are very cute. I know they’re death for plants, but they’re novel to me. We don’t have them in Texas, or at least, I’ve never seen one. Expect some snail pictures at some point. (I finally have a macro lens!)
My newest issue of Playboy has pictures from Hef’s 79th birthday party. He still has three interchangeable, early-20s, blonde girlfriends. For those gentlemen who sometimes get a little freaked out when seeing young escorts who make them feel like a father….don’t worry. You’re not a pervert.
When asked by students at Harvard Business School if she would’ve married Donald Trump if he weren’t rich, Melania Knauss-Trump sensibly replied, “If I weren’t beautiful, do you think he’d be with me?” I like honesty.
We’ve heard that a million monkeys at a million keyboards could produce the works of Shakespeare; now, thanks to the Internet, we know that is not true–Robert Wilensky, at a 1996 conference. He saw the future folks; and it was blogs.

Personal Update (7/2/08)
Book #2 is on its way. Slowly. But getting there.
I'm finally ready to rejoin life. Slowly, too.

I've discovered the pleasure of working with Brian Gardner's WP themes. His free stuff is nearly flawless and his more expensive stuff is mind-blowing. Although his work is easy to use right out of the box, there's infinite fun to be had by customizing (i.e., destroying) it. As you can see here.
