re 393...Thanks! Birthday vibes to you too.
31 today. Oy. Low key day. I plan to eat whatever I want and in any
amount I want.
Gifts have included candles, picture frames, a mini battery powered TV
and cold hard cash.

The fortuitous delivery of some equipment for WUOM's new studio to my
home resulted in the possibility of more work in the fall.

I'm curious why WUOM equipment would be delivered to you. Care to share?

I reside in the apartment most recently formerly occupied by my friend
Bob Skon, the chief engineer at WUOM. For some unknown reason, when UPS
was unable to deliver the equipment to Argus, they delivered it here...

I called for a doctor's appointment and was told there was a 3 week wait. I
called back and asked if there was something sooner - yes, 2 weeks, in
Brighton. There is not even a bus to Brighton. I called a couple of hours
later and someone had just cancelled for tomorrow morning.

IHB today's my birthday.
IAHB I now know that the ring the girl I have a crush on wears is not
an engagement ring.

Just ask the girl if she wants to fuck. Don't be coy; you're not Japanese.

Thanks to a suggestion from mdw and a few days of muddling through
manuals and tutorials, I'm now beginning to develop scripting skills in
Tcl.
This is REALLY going to ease my transition to OS X. :):)

Re # 408: The ring's meaning is "You ain't putting that in there unless
we're married." It's not like I'm some teenager who sees women as sex
toys.

I returned today from 3 days at Cub Scout camp with my son. Among
other things, he got his first pocket knife at camp.

re resp:415: I saw one kid (from another pack) throwing his knife at
trees or the ground as he was walking along. I stopped him and
reminded him he wasn't supposed to throw his knife.
"But it's a lock blade knife," he told me. "It's a throwing knife."
I whipped out an extra Whittling Chip card I had, and showed him where
it says he agreed never to throw a knife. The rules allowed me to take
a corner from his Whittling Chip card at that point, but I didn't. He
wasn't throwing it near anyone else. He obviously didn't know he was
doing anything wrong, and was surprised I'd spoken to him about it.
Anyway, anyone who knows boys or has been one knows darn well the kid
is going to throw his knife. You cannot be a boy with a knife and not
throw it sometimes. It'd be like logging into the UNIX command line,
but never using the rm "-f" option. It can't be done. But as an adult
Cub Scout leader, you have to uphold the rules of the Cub Scouts, so I
did that by talking to the boy. Probably after I talked to him, he at
least hid his knife throwing a little better.

The Boy Scouts of America (which includes the Cub Scouts) do not accept gay
leaders. I don't think gay Cub Scouts are an issue; they've probably not
thought about it yet.
