Wow! I guess I missed quite the Celtics game against the Lakers while I was at the movies last night. 98-88. (related link) 6:05am

Our dried lawn must be lovin' this steady rain all over New England, but who knows how my commute will be this morning. 6:08am

This weekend NH will hit temps in the low 90's. In NH?! The 1st week of June. OMG! It must be that global warming everyone's talkin' about. 6:19am

I was just checking iTunes. It was almost exactly 2 years ago I listened to "Prince Caspian". Re-queueing it for my commute iPod... 6:24am

Dropped Claire off at school. En route she looked at the book my friend Will had recently published at: (related link) 8:44am

I (re-)listened to the opening chapters of "Prince Caspian" on the commute down, read by Lynn Redgrave. (related link) 8:47am

Why oh why are Blu-ray Disc Player still so insanely expensive? If it doesn't change, it'll be adopted like FireWire on PCs. [crickets...] 8:55am

Today is the monthly donut day at the office. <homer>Mmmm... Donuts!!!</homer> 9:42am

Laughing at Tom Tomorrow, "A Brief History of Gasoline Consumption in America." (related link) 10:05am

It's about time! Chicago's Cardinal Francis George has directed Father Pfleger to take a leave of absence. (related link) 1:41pm

Interesting. Amazon is down, but the Amazon hosted draft copy of my website is still loading fine. (related link) 2:12pm

Listened to about half of "Prince Caspian" on the commute home and recalling just how it differs from the current Disney/Walden movie. 6:20pm

Claire's is pretty excited. Her monolog recitation made it to the school semi-finals. 6:22pm

Michelle & I are both wearing sweaters this afternoon because it's 60°F outside. It can be hard to believe tomorrow it'll be ~90°F! 6:24pm

Did some more experimentation with the Amazon S3. It has some quirks when you mount it locally as a network file system. 7:33pm

Going to take a break from looking at computer code and fold some laundry. Which is more exciting? 7:34pm

About to watch "27 Dresses" with Michelle... if I make it through this romantic comedy. 8:14pm

We made it through the movie without splitting it up across two nights of viewing. Man! There were some tacky dresses in that movie. 10:29pm
