I think greater surface area and the ability to strangle-hold the giant shark would beat out a few lost tentacles. (if the shark got a solid bite in first, maybe it’d go differently.)
Additionally, The Giant Squid still exists to this day, so from an evolutionary standpoint, VICTORY!
9514- Friday
Friday- nice to see it back again. It was foggy beyond belief yesterday, and continues today.
Last night’s supper of Chinese food from the Octagon was pretty good – I only wish they hadn’t packaged the general tso’s tofu in such a way that I got it all over my work pants and jacket while driving home.
Back was tweaking up something fierce – I wonder if the barometric pressure was a factor, or all that fog?
BHK is using her super legal-powers to help with the condo issues – looks like we might get this thing ironed out after all!
While she looked up condo legal-ese, I did some back stretches, overdue computer stuff, and checked out the demo of Left4Dead… that’s a beautiful game right there. The artwork is pretty top notch, and I really like the team play aspect. That’ll probably be my next purchase afte rI swim through Fallout 3 some more. Maybe someday I’ll get around to finishing the later episodes of HL2.
In other gaming news, BHK picked me up a new gaming joystick via freecycle. Can’t beat free hardware!
This weekend, we are likely to skip JohnCon, and instead go to Geppi’s Entertainment Museum. (I wonder if my metropass will count for $2 OFF GO GREEN! Show your ticket stub for public transportation for that day and receive $2 off admission to Geppi’s Entertainment Museum.)
Lunch today of "chicken" nuggets and mac&cheese was dang tasty. perfect for a cool, misty day
Got off work, and the Element has recovered from the hit we took from the deer. It still smells a bit of paint, but looks good as new.
Traffic was HORRID today. It took us forever to get anywhere!
BHK, Larry, Chris and I went to Selby – I guess the owners are looking to retire, sadly. I guess we had better get the pizza while we can!

The Washington Post is reporting that the shutdown of one hosting company has caused the total volume of spam to drop by 2/3rds. The company in question is McColo Corp. Both Hurricane Electric and Global Crossing pulled the plug today after a damning report revealed a number of illegal activities happening on McColo’s servers.

9513 – Thursday 2
Just as FYI – the prior entry was that of a pair of clowns being sucked into a pneumatic tube.
Was late to the Metro this morning, so BHK rolled me all the way in – we had time to get a hot chocolate and a cinnamon cake, one or both of which made us both a little on the ill side come 10:30/11am. Last strike for that place – just as well, since *$ is a real money sink, and the tassimo makes better coffee and hot chocolate.
Work was steady today – and I’m brushing up on my Bash shell script powers – perl wasn’t the way to go on one of my projects, it seems. I’m developing new skills in GPG as well, out of necessity.
Lunch of veggie "turkey" roast on pumpernickel with gouda and spicy mustard did just the trick. root veggies make me happy too. Pumpkin pie yogurt is still weird, but November appropriate. Banana was out of sync, but yummy.
Recently St. Lucie County in Florida announced that it has teamed up with Geoplasma to develop the United States’ first plasma gasification plant. The plant will use super-hot 10,000 degree Fahrenheit plasma to effectively vaporize 1,500 tons of trash each day, which in turn spins turbines to generate 60MW of electricity — enough to power 50,000 homes!
– Is it wrong to think that it would be the source of a really perfect crime? What a solid way to dispose of a body, evidence, etc…
Topps announced that "WizKids will immediately cease operations and discontinue its product lines."
I guess that means no new Pirates, but it looks like Heroclix will survive.

9510 – Wednesday
Just heard about the gaming thing up at Johns Hopkins is happening this weekend. Maybe I can wrangle swinging by there after going to lunch at paper moon with BHK and Alice. If anyone is…
