I plead guilty to past transgressions. So, call me a hypocrite if you will. I don't care anymore. I refuse to get stuck in the past because the present and the near future is fun. Indulge if you will in recurrent and persistent thoughts, impulses, or images experienced as intrusive and distressing. The obsession with Microsoft in Open Software communities is excessive and unreasonable and a product of the mind. My only hope is that such thoughts, impulses, and, or images can be expunged by logic or reasoning, which is contrary to the notions in the psychiatric community.

ÂThe lingering, perceived essence of anotherÂ sounds like the subject of a Proustian rumination. In fact, it is a line from an academic paper last April in The Journal of Marketing, by Jennifer J. Argo, Darren W. Dahl, and Andrea C. Morales. The authors examined a phenomenon that drives store managers crazy: consumers love to touch products in stores, but they hate buying things others have touched.

Still listening to this classic Dead song.  And writing about it on Twitter... It's an MP3 that I ripped from the Mars Hotel album. Which I bought on CD many years ago. I've listened to this track about 1000 times. When I play it it puts a smile on my face. Because Cucamonga is a place with no pride, imho.  It's a joke, kind of like Truckin makes fun of New Orleans, a town that done the Dead wrong, once, a long time ago. Now if it were on vinyl I would have wore it out a long time ago. I'm sure there was a copy of the song on the disk Apple stole from me. There you have it RIAA. You can go after Apple. I'll support you because they stole from both of us. They have no right to listen to PofC. I imagine Steve Jobs and Phil Shindler sitting around smokin a doobie listening to Phil Lesh sing, thinking "Dave has good taste in music." BTW, Cucamonga is a suburb in southern CA. Near Ontario. Probably very non-descript. Might have been interesting 70 years ago. And that's your bedtime story for Saturday, boys and girls. Have a nice day, don't hit your brother (or sister) and be nice to the sitter!

I love international days of this and that. They are such grand occasions for leaders to remember some long forgotten agenda. The charitable among us hope that occasions

A new generation of psychologists is exploring the way people change what they think and believe in order to achieve peace of mind. Happy birthday, 'cognitive dissonance.'

So, you think you're stressed? Get a load of this dream I had last week. In my waking hours, I thought I was getting along just fine, despite an abnormally heavy workload (lots of assignments -- including this article -- due at once) and the daily travails of a work-at-home mother of two. But I knew it was time to reassess when I woke, panting, from a nightmare in which: ...

You walk into the room, but you can't remember why. You've forgotten where you left your keys. Lapses like that seem to be happening more often. The beginnings of Alzheimer's disease? Maybe, maybe not.

Well, I had my second date with Margot last week. It was nice. We attended a seminar on multimodal component interfaces and then went on a romantic stroll around a waste treatment facility. She says the smell of methane calms her nerves. I sure can pick âem, canât I?
