I figured it would be dumb for me NOT to post on such a day...
But then, of course, it's also dumb to post if you have nothing to really say (see the prior post for an example of this).
I've spent the whole day watching my new PC slowly crawl towards my house (via the UPS tracker, of course, not some really cool binoculars, though that would be neat too).
It's increasingly asymptotic approach to my home is starting to grate on me.
Oh, and one of the most pathetically stupid April Fool's threads has been going on on NANOG. I've gotten to the point where I just ignore the posts now.
It was a marginally funny joke to begin with (basically, a slightly-convoluted story about a merger of Cisco and Nabisco to allow the writer to call the company "NaCisco" [yes, that was the joke]) which has been followed by hundreds of would-be hucksters making jokes about bread crumbs and packets settling during shipping.
Ah me...
Not everyone can be the comedy genius that I am, I know. I just need to be more tolerant of their tag-along attempts.
I'll be playing in a poker tournament saturday, my first live game in most of a month and my first real tournament since winning second place at UG9.
I'm looking forward to it, and to the absolute drubbing I expect the North Shore crowd to take at the hands of my "crew".
I'll be happy to finish in the top third, and ecstatic to place in the money. I'm not expecting any miracles...
