Good morning! Dropped Claire & her friends off. Fixed a bug in my Twitter archive script, since Twitter subtly changed their XML responses. 8:05am

gasp I'm seeing a bit of green trying to work its way into our lawn. Of course it's most noticeable over the septic tank. :-P 8:45am

Today's "Good Morning America" covered the miracle that may lead to Pope John Paul's beatification. (related link) 10:03am

Had a nice Skype call with my previous boss, who moved back to Ireland four years ago. Always enjoy catching up with her. 11:56am

Took Michelle out for lunch at Cafe on the Oval followed by a coffee run at Donut Fresh Express, both here in Milford. Back to work now. 1:15pm

Laughing at the Papist Picture of the Day - "Matrix 4: The Rise of Pope Neo". (related link) 1:19pm

This article affirms what I've often thought about Operating System monocultures. (related link) 2:17pm

Listening to @PatrickMadrid "Open Line" live on my Palm Centro streaming over Sprint's 3G network. What a world we live in! 3:02pm

Back from my Step Circuit class. It is so humid in the studio at this time of yr. I swear I lose a pound just in water weight. Rehydrating.. 7:06pm

Laughing. Instead of Notre Dame, call it Northwestern Indiana Humanist Institute of Learning. (NIHIL). The Fighting Nihilists. 7:21pm

Playing (for small values of playing) with one of Perl's XML parsing libraries. That oughtta keep me busy for a spell... 9:09pm

Updated my Twitter archiving script to use a real XML parsing library. Hopefully [fingers crossed] this will make it less likely to break. 10:01pm

Is it already past 10 o' clock on the U.S. east coast?! Typical night of hacking and losing track of time. Good night all. Sleep well! 10:13pm
