The coding project continues along well, so I was surprised to take stock today and find that I'd written just under a thousand lines, total, in the whole project. Or a thousand and a few hundred more if you count the data files as well as the code. It seems so minute when put that way. Just ten lines a day or so on the main project. Granted, you can do a lot with a thousand lines of code. The original UNIX operating system that Macs and most webservers derive from was 9,000 lines in its entirety.
I've started a secondary project for NaNoWriMo. I'm readying for presentation a boardgame I'd been conceptualizing since early this year. No, it's not a novel, but I'm attaching myself to the NaNoWriMo community and deadline all the same, because deadlines and communities are of great value in Getting Things Done.
A few minutes outside those two projects have been spent listening to youTube lectures by Mr. Alan Watts, who has some thoroughly clever things to say. This is the first I caught, thanks to artchick's posting it on her other blog:
A few youTube watches later, and this popped up on my recommended list. In form, it's Watts explaining Yoga to a Christian audience, and along the way exposes many of the most important ideas that anyone could grasp. Or so I would agree with Mr. Watts.

...I haven't gone back and read either of those threads in a few months, but I agree with your assessment. I can't even begin to fathom who might be picked - but, to be honest, I don't know if something like that could exist now. SG is a very different place then it was at that time, no?
I hope that you're feeling better, good sir.
