The Friday Eudemon

My Pistons are hot [http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/recap?gameId=270510004&campaign=rss&source=ESPNHeadlines] ! Down 19, they came back to win. They're up 3-0. I suspect a dear friend and Bulls fan will owe me $5 next week. Not much ordinary blogging today.

Pre-Inkling, Inkling, and Beer

Ah, the weekend is here. After a long week of 10+ hour days, I'm taking today off. I often work part of Fridays out of my home (courtesy of PC Anywhere), but I'm not even doing that today. I'm just walking to Mass, taking

The Lame Eudemon

No time, no time. I give you this neat picture of a dust storm hitting an African town [http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/articles/news/news.html?in_article_id=452050&in_page_id=1770] : And: Thank goodness for this [http://www.slate.com/id/2164268]: >
