With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.
-Steven Weinberg

The good life, as I conceive it, is a happy life. I do not mean that if you are good you will be happy - I mean that if you are happy you will be good.
-Bertrand Russell

Too much sanity may be madness and the maddest of all, to see life as it is and not as it should be.
-Miguel de Cervantes

I enjoy paying taxes. With them I buy civilization.
-Oliver Wendell Holmes

Counting Game

The cleaning people are coming tomorrow so I'm going to try and make an early exit so I won't be here when they are. It will give me a chance to pick up some necessities in the city such as halvah. I also need to get buy dry erase markers. I can't trust the school to provide them for me and they are cheap enough. Let's see if I can go the rest of the semester without losing them again.

I didn't mention the new book I'm reading, Martin Chuzzelwit. I just impressed myself; I spelled that right. I tried reading it once before and made it about half way through and then just petered out. The strange thing is that I really like what I read. It is really funny. The problem is that the plot goes very slowly. The fact that it is 848 pages long doesn't help either. Don't expect me to finish it soon. There is another book I'm reading at the same time, EHAH: Every Hand An Adventure. It is a really weird and super aggressive bridge bidding system. It's only for real macho men like me J

Is anyone other than Lawrence still reading this?

For the first time ever my average daily readership is up to 13. It has been 12 since January of 2001. I've been averaging 18 hits a day the last month. Imagine what my rating would be if I included Buffy Porn? I recorded Buffy tonight but I haven't seen most of it yet, just the first scene. It actually came pretty close to being Buffy Porn.

I went to the Knick game tonight, as usual the game was really entertaining and the Knicks lost. What am I going to do with those guys? I'm still having fun of course. Alan wants me to go to Ranger games with him. I'm not really a hockey fan but I'll try and go when I can to keep him company. It is so hard finding the time though.

On good months I see 8-10 concerts. I try not to get anxious if I haven't been in a while though. I don't want it to become a counting thing. I want to go to shows because I enjoy them not because I need to make my quota. Looking at my concert calendar I see that I only went to 4 shows in October, and it didn't bother me at the time. I know that might sound odd, to use "only" to describe going to one concert a week.

I'm not going to force it and try to write more tonight. One of these days I'll think of something substantial to write again. I'm sure I will after the Batnose Brigade reunion this weekend. If we are really lucky I'll have something special to write about when I come back. If not I'll still have a longer entry than this.
