Well, I wrote Chapter One this morning, the first portion of our group effort at producing a novel in just 30 days (part of National Novel Writing Month).

This year's local election is hilarious because of all the funny references based upon candidates' names. Examples include "Patty Melt" (Patty Melton), "Pizza Frazza" (Pete Sferrazza - I think 'frazza' is Italian for 'frozen', thus making him frozen pizza), and Dr. Suess's 'Ziser Zazzer Zuzz' (from the famous ABC book - Richard Ziser). The campaign signs make us chuckle whenever we see them. =)

As Christmastime approaches, I always have to wonder why there are two different versions of 'Away in a Manger' (the traditional tune I learned as a youth, and the newer, lamer tune currently heard all over the place).

Read an interesting short tech article today, entitled "What happens when everyone has a WLAN?".
