Hope For My Old Age
That’s what I had, until I found out this story wasn’t really true:
Pearson admitted during her arraignment that when she found the 88-year-old Venn trying to turn tricks she and her friends decided it would be funny to sleep ‘with an old guy.’ Word spread and lots of girls paid Venn for sex. Pearson said he only charged five dollars and gave them lollipops afterward.
Nice while it lasted, though.
P. J. O’Rourke At XCOR
Click on it. You know you want to.
And yes, before anyone complains, there are many inaccuracies. It’s entertaining nonetheless.

Go There To Buy The Lube
…stay there for the customer reviews:
As UPS discretely unloaded my 55 gallon drum, the driver accidentally spilled it into my driveway. Any amount of cars can now fit into the garage.
Probably not safe for work, if you can’t laugh discreetly.
Stuck In Iraq
Heh,
John Kerry said that I if you didn't study or were stupid, you would get stuck in Iraq. Today, John Kerry is stuck in Iraq. #tcot

Appearing Smart In Meetings
I will confess that I have done many of these things. Though I’m also often the quiet engineer who eventually speaks up.
Thought I actually do know what “Will this scale?” means. I often ask it, seriously. No one at NASA seems to understand it, though.

Lileks, back from his Aegean trip, has started a new B&W series.
Also, summer camp reminiscences. Which makes me happy that the place I went to is still around. I still remember the swimming test. I had just had lessons at the high school, and passed everything to be allowed the run of the lake. One part was treading water for some duration (ten minutes, maybe). Another was diving down deep (maybe fifteen feet) to bring up a handful of muck. Probably with bloodsuckers in it.
“I Want To Get Laid”
…but I’m afraid I’ll be oppressing women.
Heh. Heather strikes again.
