Oh man, I am so awesome. Today's Wikipedia page of the day is Oxygen, and someone had replaced the article with "is delicious." So I reverted it back to the previous edit. I saved oxygen. | | Friday, March 7th, 2008 | | 9:26 am |
Very interesting article about a NYC charter school over at The New York Times. The school will pay teachers 125k, and the principal will get only 90k. Choice quote: Ernest A. Logan, president of the city principals’ union, called the notion of paying the principal less than the teachers “the craziest thing I’ve ever heard.” | | Thursday, February 21st, 2008 | | 9:02 pm |
NYT QotD “I don’t know anything about it,” Mr. McCain said. “Since it was in The New York Times, I don’t take it at face value.” That's a cheap shot, John. | | Monday, February 18th, 2008 | | 9:24 am |

NYT QotD This shared outrage underscores how egalitarian free trade is: undermining inefficient producers who survive behind protective barriers, be they fabulously wealthy sugar producers in Florida or campesinos on tiny plots in Michoacán. | | Thursday, January 24th, 2008 | | 7:30 am |
NYT QotD “Never get into a wrestling match with a pig,” Senator John McCain said in New Hampshire this month after reporters asked him about Mr. Romney. “You both get dirty, and the pig likes it.” | | Wednesday, January 2nd, 2008 | | 10:57 am |
NYT QotD Yet we often promise developing countries that if they will only adopt good policies — for example, institute honest government and a free-market economy — they, too, will be able to enjoy a first-world lifestyle. This promise is impossible, a cruel hoax.... From and op-ed by Jared Diamond, author of "Guns, Germs, and Steel." | | Wednesday, December 12th, 2007 | | 7:25 pm |

long time
Wow, it's been a long, long time. Things are going well. We are busy. Very busy. And now we have two dogs. I don't know how we are going to do it. We might just have to get the car fixed. I am going a little crazy. The dogs are wonderful, but I am not so sure how I feel about being responsible for them. What if they grow up to be mean and spiteful and bite people and for 15 years I have to deal with that? But they shouldn't, not if we treat them right. Not if we are good to them and introduce them to new people and so on. They are beagles. They are 11 months old. We adopted them from the shelter. We think they are brothers. Their names are Wooster and Jeeves. I will put some pictures online somewhere soon. They're super cute. Especially the little one. And they are already learning to sit and so forth. They're still a little wild -- they were strays, who knows for how long. They're very excitable, and not yet all that interested in paying attention to us. But that's getting better already. Anyway, I'm going a little nuts, but I think overall they will be really good for me. They'll definitely get me on a more sensible schedule (since I want them on a sensible schedule). And I'm getting a lot more exercise! On the downside, I am allergic to them. I've never noticed any reaction to dogs before, but now that I have my own my hands turn red and dry out and swell up and itch. As the day goes on the swelling and redness creeps up my arms and starts on my face. It gets better overnight -- the dogs stay downstairs and we sleep upstairs. But how ironic is that? The only reason we haven't gotten a cat -- the easiest of all animals, and my favorite -- is that I'm allergic. And now we get dogs, which are a big pain in the butt, and I'm still allergic. Benadryl helps, but it knocks me out. I just took one and you can see how disjointed this is. I hope I don't sound negative about this overall. It is great! And Sandra is happy. Come meet them sometime. | | Monday, August 6th, 2007 | | 4:48 pm |
NYT QotD About bin Laden: “I can’t talk about that, whether he is in Afghanistan or in Pakistan,” Mr. Karzai said, “but I definitely know that he cannot be in Afghanistan.” | | Friday, June 15th, 2007 | | 12:03 am |

About damn time
I got my Wii yesterday. At the Target in Clarksville they had about 6 or 8 of them. Here in bloomington you have to be at the store when the truck gets there to get one. Anyway, it's awesome. My number is 7048 4935 2580 2556 | | Tuesday, April 24th, 2007 | | 7:24 pm |
MORE THUNDERSTORMS, PLEASE. ALSO SEND MORE BURRITOS. | | Saturday, April 14th, 2007 | | 1:55 pm |
Sandra and I ran a 10k race in Columbus this morning. It was a lot of fun. We came in 2nd and 3rd from last. But check this out: We both won our age/sex groups. First place Men 25-29, first place Women 19-24. Hahahahahahaha. AND we both got door prizes. Pretty sweet all around. |
