Bland Food

Looking at Facebook the other day, I saw no less than three recipes for what people described (in summary) as "the best easy dish ever".  One of these recipes was for buttered spaghetti noodles with parsley.  Is this the kind of food people typically eat?

Buttered noodles is what I have when there isn't anything else in the house.  That is to say, I consider the house empty of food when all that is left in the house is your "best easy dish ever".

Almost Friday

I was recently reminded of this recording from ages ago.  I volunteered for a Blogothon, wherein you write a blog post every half hour for 24 hours, and get people to pledge money toward a cause of your choosing.

Being me, I decided not to write a standard blog, but to create and record a podcast-style story over the 24 hour process.  On the half hours, I'd write the script and post about the process, and on the hour I'd publish the recorded and edited audio of the script.

I Need Headphones

I think I have found an unanswered electronics market: Developer headset.

I have been hearing headphones with a microphone every work day for at least six hours for almost four months.  My headphones are an essential part of work, because they connect me clearly to my remote co-workers, and to my programming pair (someone I cooperatively code with all day).

Idling Speculation

A random thought I had this morning:  There are a lot of trucks that idle in our development.

I woke up this morning to the sound of, well, I don't know what kind of truck.  Whatever it was, it was making some grinding motory racket outside at 6am.
