Happiness and the devil….
Are both in the details. I was tidying up around the office and came across my original Logitech trackball mouse. I’d always meant to mess with it a bit to see if I can get it working, no other mouse has even come close. I did get it working, and I’m happier now that I’ve been in several days. I’m not even a bit peeved that I’m working at 1:20 in the morning, with several hours left to go. That’s odd when you think about it.

From the Navy Seal recruitment page
The SEAL program consists of more than 12 months — followed by an additional 18 months — of intensive training designed to push you to your physical and mental limits — again and again
More than 12 months, followed by 18 months?

The under reported flashpoint of the moment
It’s Russia vs Georgia. One, financially strong due to a high oil price, but weakening everywhere else it seems, and the other a scrappy underdog with some smart leadership. Coming Anarchy has a nice synopsis of the current sort-of crisis. Expect this to become big news over the next few weeks.

It’s 38 degrees outside
In October no less. How odd.

At long last…
I finally get the wireless router to work with my laptop. I think it was changing the channel that did the trick. I’m typing this from my living room.
The quote of the moment is “Sometimes you have to murder your sweetheart” from a History Channel engineering program. It refers to stopping work on a favored project when it proves unworkable.

From the hotel room in Elizabthtown. I set the auto timer on the Canon 630 and set it on a shelf behind me.

For those keeping track
At the moment I’m back in town, leaving tommorow and coming back on Tuesday. Photo below of my dad’s driveway, taken on Thursday.
