Terry Schiavo died this morning. Tis a sad thing that a husband can force the removal of a feeding tube from a living human being. I can’t say that I’d agree with having laws thrown up to protect her, but to think that our society has started to crumble enough that someone would [...]

Spring time is here
March 29th, 2005 · 1 Comment
I know it’s spring because I’m now wearing shorts. Today was my first shorts day. That means that I was miserable yesterday as it was too hot for full length jeans.
Of course, Dr. 7 thought I was nuts and said it was just getting good. Anyway, it’s now Spring and I’ll wear [...]

Search hits through the roof
March 25th, 2005 · 7 Comments
Wow, hits for John J. Midgley have gone through the roof.
You can see my story around here somewhere and blah, blah, blah.
If you’re here looking for someone to bash Midgley you’ve come to the wrong place.
To be honest, I don’t understand what the problem is with the man. Ok, so he’s a [...]

I’m sick
March 20th, 2005 · 2 Comments
I’m sick. My sinuses are draining like you wouldn’t believe and my tummy isn’t happy about something.
Thus, after a senior design meeting which was great until the last 15 minutes and now I’m still annoyed and it ended a couple of hours ago. Argh.
I’ve done my documentation stuff that needs to be done [...]

Ender’s Game
March 19th, 2005 · 2 Comments
I had forgotten just how wonderful this book is. I’ve only read a couple of chapters and I can’t put it down.
I need to remember to send an e-mail out to my SciFi group so we can get together and do our report thing for class on Thursday.
And I read “As I Lay [...]

Friday!
March 18th, 2005 · Comments Off
I’m 1/5 the way through my last quarter at Rose. It’s an interesting feeling. Namely, I’m behind in a couple of things that need to be taken care of.
Oh, well. It’ll get caught up in a day or two.
I wrote a paper about “The Great Gatsby” this afternoon. It [...]

SEP Interview
March 16th, 2005 · Comments Off
Had my Interview with a top dog at SEP…I believe it was a president. Unfortunately, I don’t have his card with me and I can’t remember his exact title.
Anyway, we spoke for a while and went through the standard: Why do you want to work here? What do you want to do? [...]

Been busy
March 15th, 2005 · 1 Comment
Yay! It’s time for a post.
Wow, I’ve been busy. But we’ll save that for later.
As Mathias pointed out the other day I’ve passed the 500 posts mark. Yay!
Now, if I can get back in gear then I might be able to keep up with my approximate post a day. But I’ve [...]

So why’s the suspect alive?
March 13th, 2005 · 1 Comment
I just read something on Blogs for Bush (which I read, but I’m intelligent enough to be able to filter out some of the political retoric) and it makes me ask, “So why isn’t the suspect dead?”
The post cites a story from Halifax, Canada, and says that an armed robbery suspect attacked police off icers [...]

Makes me a happy camper.
Now to do some reading and then some movie watching with Dr. 7 and Lissa-love.
And tomorrow more reading, maybe some political blog posting, some preliminary writing for class, and hopefully I’ll be able to get some stuff done for Senior Project.
And [...]
