Cat people.
No, not the movie.
The site. It seems overrun with cat people. (I know, this is not a new observation.) I guess cats are not all bad. They eat rats, after all.
But where are the dog people? I'm a dog person. (Except I can't lick my own... well, never mind.)
I'll be spending time cat-sitting soon, so cats are on my mind....

"Rain, rain, go away...
Come again some other day..."
Or better yet, some other place. There are droughts in the world... send our rain to them. We can spare a few weeks of our rain for those more in need. In fact, the way things are going, we can spare the next few months' worth...

Finished reading "Quicksilver" (Neal Stephenson, 2003). Still don't really know what it is about. That is, I know what it said, but it didn't seem to add up to anything. His other books have at least a semblance of a plot with a beginning, a middle, and an end (even though, with some, you might have to read 300 pages before seeing where it's going)....

Point ta......hmmm...forget it. Honestly I was pretty much just venting and Im sure that I make it out to be worse than it is. But the important thing is that you bothered to post anything at all. In the end thats really what I needed. Just someone to say something, good or bad.

he's already finished the other two, but i think he's forcing you to wait a year for them...have i said this already?

"Quicksilver", by Neal Stephenson:
An odd book. I'm on page 650 (of 900), and I still don't know what it's about. Maybe it's not about anything. Or maybe it'll all come together in the last 250 pages.
Still worth reading, just for the dialog and the word etymologies. (There's also some entomology.) Stephenson should write plays or screenplays (as well as novels).
Side note: you'll...

So, as usual, I'm sitting in front of my computer wondering where everybody is, and why there are no cams active. Then I remember, "Oh, yeah. It's Saturday evening. Cool people go out to parties and clubs and stuff." That thought has gone through my head several Saturday nights in a row, now.

Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

A light from the shadows shall spring;
Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king...

Those 2 lines you mentioned above are one of my favorites as well -- probably only second to a particular verse in Milton's Paradise Lost that I absolutely adore.

So... National Geographic released a special issue a few months ago (well, quite a few, now) on photography of animals. The '100 best wildlife pictures' issue. Some of the shots are pretty amazing.
One of them in particular catches my eye. There's a snake... sort of... gliding through the air. It somehow flattens its body so that it can glide as if it were... well......

I just started grad school this semester. I'm still very much a newbie when it comes to the what's, where's, why's, and how's of the archival systems and storage retrieval organization/management of libraries/museums. Sorry to disappoint.
adelina:
When I was a little kid I always liked receiving the maps that (usually) comes with each National Geographic issue. I still have them stashed away at home.
Snakes and other serpents have such a terrible reputation, but they are darn cool animals. They can eat rats in one big gulp
