Reformed Loser

It's now two minutes shy of 22 November. This thirty days was easy because I took a legalistic approach to my bell-ringing resolution. Trawling the internet was off-limits (though I did find myself lingering over pictures of superheroines while on legitimate RL business). Anything else was fair game (Cinemax). Now I'll make it a challenge. No external imagery. Enough about that.
Today I talked to both Bill Sanderson and Gene Hammonds about Special Topics in Calamity Physics. Mr. Sanderson knew all about it and was already planning on reading it. Coach Hammonds was not familiar, but intrigued. He asked for a pen so that [I] could write down all the pertinent details. He said he was often in Books-A-Million and that he would try to remember to pick up a copy.
After work I went over to the Root Bar to meet Close Buddy and Company. One of the Company was an IDF veteran and we all talked about Iraq. I've now been tasked with presenting an argument for why we should stay the course and how we are winning. I'll see what I can do. What I really wanted to talk about this week was price gouging and how there's no such thing, maybe I'll still be able to.
