From Logan airport terminal A:
Men
do not leave bags or
valuables unattended
There were two daft intepretations of this sign that amused me greatly at the time. However, I may have been tired.

My day at work:
Meet to discuss how to get data for client #3.
Discuss problems had with processing data for project #1, client #1
dig up subject matter experts for kickoff meeting with client #2 tomorrow, discuss approach.
Sign 40ish christmas cards in gold pen, for clients #1 through #4.
Scavange some bread from the refrigerator from yesterday's christmas party.
forge coworkers signature on cards for clients #1 and #4, using theoretically different handwriting.
meet to discuss agenda for client training on monday for client #1 that none of the 6 of us involved have even vaguely started working on.
Check to see if what I ran last night for project #2, client #1 worked. Write up an email status, listing things yet to be done, and reasserting that I'll be done by monday. I would spend no other time working on this today, allegedly what I'm working on.
Weekly status meeting with client #1, project #1.
Read and summerize materials for kickoff meeting for client #2
Write up and send out agenda for aforementioned training.
Worry about the fact I didn't do what I promised on client #1, project #3, and have been entirely ignoring client #3.

The sort of thing google doesn't know: Are there more shoes, or feet? If shoes, at what point in history did it happen?

Roommate watch:
Tim Carney has a book out, with actual reporting, and a semi-professional pundit blog, about the corrosive influence of business on government.

I realize this probably makes me a bad and cruel person, but 2 bald men drove past me this morning in one of those little zippy mercedes convertibles, and it looked for all the world like the wind had taken off their hair. Anyway, it amused me.

Eh, well, it's right, but I'm suspicious. Does it work for you outlanders?

I had a dream that I found Martin Gardner's suicide note, which was, of course, cryptic, along with a key, in a leather box, on an island that was littered with washed up pencils that were given to UMich graduates which they all then threw away.

Sid Meier has got the rights back to the railroad tycoon franchise, and Fireaxis has made a new game, Railroads! the demo wasn't very good, and it's too graphics intensive to run happily on my computer. But they've made the original Railroad Tycoon available free, bundled with a dos emulator that actually works.
