Alumni Reunion update

This weekend was the Alumni weekend, and the alumni demanded that I update the blog.

ahhhggh, I have been too exhausted to update my blog. I had to rank the teams in the district, do prefs for the NDT and CEDA, and finish the Shirley caselist -all over the period of a month. And then I had to do laundry and the tri-annual lubrication of my bicycle chains and joints.


While I was sleeping for a week after CEDA, I had this amazing dream about a gravy fountain. Kinda like a chocolate fountain, except with gravy. Instead of little cubes of cake, there would be loaves of french bread and steak. I mean, come on. A font from wence gravy immaculately emanates would be the crowning achievement of the room in my house that I am dedicating to spices, sauces, and side dishes. I do not like sausage gravy, only brown gravy would spring forth from my font. Sausage gravy will not be allowed anywhere near my monument. The mistreatment of gravy indicates a greater societal ill. It is a waste of precious pan drippings. Packer wants to write a thesis about the acknowledgment of Alien races. I respond to that quite simply. If human beings cannot acknowledge the right for pan drippings to be treated with respect and dignity, can we expect to treat the alien Other any better? We have a moral imperative to confer upon gravy a life giving gift of acknowledgment. The ethical framework that entails how we treat our spices and gravies represent the decision calculi that allow genocide to promulgate unnoticed

I’ve also been working on getting the tech together for the server to host evidence for Ross’s open source project. Ross got mad at me earlier tonight because he wanted me to write down what needed to be done. What? I don’t need to write anything, I have it all in my head. Ross then told me how important it is to write things out, something about communicating ideas to other people. I don’t need to write anything when its in my head. Barnes wants something written so he can present it to the ADA. All that Ross and the ADA need to know is that I have it figured out in my mind.

And that should be a comfort to know.
