Greetings blog public, how are you all tonight? I'm doing well; had a really productive day, holed up in my office, coding in English (email) and C++, and occasionally looking outside at what appeared to be a perfect day. Finally mid-afternoon I couldn't stand it anymore and took off for a nice ride along Mulholland, and the views of the ocean were amazing (best part was coming back and seeing the snow on the mountains!)
It's official: "If the President is a Republican, it's fine to call him a 'chimp.' In fact, it's morally superior. But if the President is a Democrat, you can't call a chimpanzee a chimp lest someone think you might have been referring to the President." Sigh. This is pretty amazing: Nearly intact mammoth skeleton found in L.A. "The mammoth's fossil was among 16 deposits at the site that archaeologists wrapped, along with the surrounding dirt, in plaster jackets, creating 23 boxes weighing between 5 and 53 tons that were then lifted out intact. The construction was being monitored by an archaeological consulting firm because the site is so close to the La Brea tar pits - an archeological site that has yielded 100 million bones belonging to 300 species of mammals and birds." Just don't call it a chimp :)
During my ride today I found myself listening to U2, With or Without You, and it prompted me to switch to listening to just U2 on random play. Excellent stuff, and perfect for a nice ride on a nice day. I see where U2's latest album "No line on the horizon" isn't out yet but is already available online via P2P... I'll have to get it :)
