6787 Mango / Spyware / Pi Approximation / Look out.

Dang. It’s obviously mango season again. They’re hanging fat on any tree that hasn’t been harvested yet. I imagine every office in the city has someone bringing in grocery bags full of ’em, pulled of before they can be allowed to rot on the ground…They have been known to make the local birds and other small animals drunk when the fruit is consumed after fermenting in the sun for a few days.

That puts me in the mood for a tropical fruit salad… maybe some mango/banana/lime/coconut.

I won’t go into what a raging mango is. Them that know, know.


New Tech seems ok, so far. Intelligent, but I worry that along with that comes a fundamental laziness. He reminds me a bit of my old buddy ramscan, in that he’s quiet and laid back, but once you open him up, he seems nice, and likely lot deeper than you might see on the surface.


My good deed of the day – (figured I’d share, after helping 3 people pull if off systems yesterday.)
