– WEEKEND – What a weekend it was! First, I actually managed to accomplish a respectable percentage of things I needed to get done, meaning I may have momentarily halted my slide into oblivion, and even began to take back some ground.

Sheepishly. Several posts in the last month have had appreciable grammer and linking errors. I’ve corrected a few:

Important Issues: The Price of Economic Polygamy?

NYC Post #10: Brooklyn – Downtown Brooklyn – Fort Greene / Clinton Hill – FORT GREENE

END OF POST.

I didn’t jump into exploring Chicago nearly as quickly as I’ve started on New York. My first couple quarters quickly overwhelmed me, and I only left Hyde Park/Woodlawn once between the end of Orientation and Thanksgiving of that year. I started to get restless however, so on one night at the end of January, when the temperature soared into the thirties, Wanderlust took over.

– Finally, mid-October arrives on December 2nd.
– We’re having a small-scale party tonight… at least I think it will be small-scale. I will report back on this pseudo-first shindig at the Laurelton.

NATION OF THE DAY:
Oman.

QUESTION OF THE DAY:
Which muppet is the toughest?

I recieved a comment from alan1 under Watching Closely… 3:

I was wondering if anyone else saw that recent USA Today piece that was highly critical of Wikipedia? I do not in any way mean to critique Connor or his analysis, as I feel that he is uniquely qualified to talk about the GM issue and that, for the most part, Wikipedia is the greatest thing to ever happen to the web.

– DELAYED RESPONSES – Getting to this late in the day, I know. I have tutoring at 9 AM sharp on Thursdays and don’t get out until 2 PM, and today I had to stop at Target and buy underwear and Risk^TM, and I’ve been responding to emails and generally being highstrungsincethensojustdeal.

“This means that Delphi, GM and the UAW are sitting in a smoke-free room somewhere trying to avoid a strike. Obviously, this is good news.” – Sean McAlinden, economist, Center for Automotive Research

The run down is here.

Note: Amber asked me what my sources were.

FRANKENSTEIN OR THE MUMMY’S CURSE?

Yesterday, as you may already know, the Vatical finally published its document on homosexuals and seminaries.

The whole situation would be pathetically funny if it wasn’t so serious. It’d be funny if it weren’t so sad.

– IF OUR COUNTRY WERE MANY COUNTRIES – Or distinct regions…curious how they’d rank in population? I split the nation into eight division (not as a proposal, just for fun). Here they are:

#1. THE SOUTH – 69.26 million – 24.6%
[inc.

– THE CATHOLIC CHURCH IS OBJECTIVELY DISORDERED – I’ll probably spend most of my downtime this afternoon writing a response to the Vatican document on homosexuals and seminaries. It adds gay men (described as “objectively disordered”) to the ranks of women and married men who are not permitted to serve through Priesthood.
