The Holy Grail...

...well, sort of. Actually, the Big Ten Grail is what was sought after in the halftime show today. Hopefully we find it this year. It was a show that I would have been proud to be part of. The Liberty Bell, the Foot, the Lumberjack, the Black Knight, it was all there. I'm buying a copy of this year's DVD for that show. Trombone ingenuity strikes again, and the marching band does a pretty good show. (Announcer: "Stop groveling." Band: "Sorry" Announcer: "And don't apologize!" Band: "Right!" *snap horns to playing position*) It was fantabulous. Bring out your dead!

Anyway, it appears that if you've got a big thing to auction, and you can't decide between the various houses, the hip thing to do is play Janken for it, which also leads into an interesting thought about what would happen if Kid Rules were the gold standard for the world's politics.

Also, CD burners. Guaranteed to give a good roast every time. In second place, Bowling for Geekery

And you want to know the kind of profession I'm planning on going into? This sums it up nicely. Respect your librarians. It'll get your job done quicker. In fact, learn your library catalogue and call number system. It'll save you and the librarian time.
