And that's the week.

Ran my errands today - not complete success as the books were not all bought, but the rest got done. I'm glad it's all finished, there. But then again, there's the classes coming. The classes, they're coming.

Played three games of Literati tonight - two against 2dlife and one against 2dlife and annaonthemoon. The first game, I actually beat 2dlife, after getting blasted by an 88-point play early on. The second game, well, it turned out poorly. There was a 79-point play that really hurt, and then in the end-game, there was another bingo that he played. I didn't make it to 200 points. He had 314. The third game, well, I got snookered all over the place. Bad letters and no placement. So my Literati skills are still not quite up to par.

Lockheed wins the contract to develop the new space shuttle. We'll see if they can design something that doesn't have problems in the heat, or things breaking, or other such.

9/11 commemorative coin. Because there's nothing more American than profiting on other people's misery and capitalizing on disasters. I wonder how many people find this tasteful...

Human Card Game: War - line 'em up and let 'em wander about. It'll be more fun if people hide what kind of card they are until they pick a target.

Drinking your juice may prevent Alzheimer's. So drink up, kiddies!

Lucas's Last Supper - there's an interesting idea. Of course, this can probably be done many times over.

A nightmare scenario of the future - one where nothing changes at all. And if it continues on this way, there's a chance that when America goes, the world goes with it. I hope that the world stays around, and humanity with it. It'd be nice for us to survive long enough to bring us all back.

Last thought for tonight - kickoff tomorrow at noon. Once again, the padded rugby season is upon us.

One down, many to go.

The padded rugby team was victorious today, one of hopefully many victories this season. (At least we're worried now about making sure the offense makes things work. The defense looked very solid today.) And so everything's in order, and tomorrow, I'll probably be in Windsor for much of the day - the first time I've been out of the country in my life. Took me long enough.

Anyway, only one link tonight.

Applying good computer principles to humanity - some groups are trying to figure out the logistics of making a backup on the moon of the human race. It sounds like an interesting idea. Although, one would have to figure out how to trigger the backup if we eliminated ourselves.

Going to bed now, as things are likely to be getting very awake very early in the morning. But I hope they're lots of fun, too.
