So I\’ve been looking at old chat logs. Found this conversation between me and… myself. It\’s a bit odd. Session Start (AIM – insanityisall:enthupaul): Sun Jan 04 23:24:00 2004 enthupaul: Hey. *** Auto-response sent to enthupaul: Calculus excercises the brain and I\’m working up a mental sweat. insanityisall: Hello. insanityisall: I see you\’ve gotten a…

New best article title: \”For Frog-Licking Scientist, the Tongue Says It All\”. \”[But] I don\’t recommend this,\” the biologist cautioned, \”because if you lick the wrong frog it can be very bad.\” … By 1990 Valerie was entering her hand-raised frogs into local jumping races.

To celebrate the Leap Day today, I finished a book and read three more. But for you, I will share something I read on Steven Brust\’s online journal: Leap Day has a tradition going far, far back in time. In ancient Sumeria, it was considered a day for taking chances–for doing things normally considered too…

I\’d appreciate comments on this poem I wrote for my class today. Nectarines I said I preferred peaches, but you wanted a nectarine. So we brought it back and you portioned it out and I found it wasn\’t better — only different. You went back to your city, and I held the taste in my…

My hotel was very close to Oxford street, and became one of the big landmarks for getting back there from other parts of the city.…

Tomorrow I bus to London for the weekend. Hopefully I will come back with pictures. Hopefully I will make it back. If I do, I\’ll keep you…

Because I\’ve been too lazy to post hardly anything about my travels so far, I\’m going to give you three photosets. Some of you may have seen them on Flickr already, but many of you probably haven\’t. There are a lot of pictures up there. Peterborough This is the town in which we had our…

For some reason I find it comforting that modern-day adventurers can still disappear without a trace.

Nathan came on Friday to visit me. I hadn\’t seen him since he visited Spokane in October, so I was very happy to have him come. I got to see the Project Peach animatic. I have to say, it\’s coming along well. Makes a lot more sense than The Elephant\’s Dream. I can\’t wait to…
