Today was a slow day at work, and yet, today was an interesting day at work - I got to sort cable for a good portion of it. That was, well, less than optimally interesting, especially since I needed to separate the cable types from each other. The workspace got a bit cluttered, shall we say. And it kept needing more room (kind of like a certain operating system that I know about). And I get to do more of it on Thursday, I suspect.

But that's not important, really. What is important? Laser Tag, of course. This is a Do-It-Yourself thing, but if you've ever wanted to live out your FPS fantasies... this may be as close as you'll get. Unless you outsource, that is. That, however, could be more expensive than you think.

Apparently, even in Congress they're drawing some parallels between the Administration and the Third Reich. Some people think they're right. If they really do plan on turning the nation into a dictatorship, will someone give me enough advance warning so I can fortify myself against it?

So much to do, so little time. So tomorrow, I'll try to get it all done in time. Plus there’s thesis revision to be done - I got back a commented paper and looked it over. Hopefully this part's not the hardest of them all.

Well now. That's an answer beyond my ken - my own politics are so flexible I have enough of a problem avoiding getting infected with partisan rage from whatever my reading matter is on any particular week. I really need to develop more critical thinking skills myself, obviously.

There's always the obvious of setting an example, being the change you want to see in the world etc, and trying as much as possible to treat one's opponents with respect and find common ground and places to work together - like with the emerging bipartisan grassroots coalition (http://politology.us/archives/2005/03/bankruptcy_prot.php) against the bankruptcy law measures coming up before the US Congress, which seems to be pretty much a loan-shark protection bill.
