Long Day in NYC. Saw Ellis Island, Ground Zero, City Hall, Macy’s Herard Square, and then back to our hotel near Times Square. Dinner at Rosie O’Grady’s. Some tasty stuff.
Pictures coming soon.

Moveable Type
Finally got around to installing moveable type for the first time on my powerbook as a test. Appears to work great. I have some ideas on how to use it for some internal stuff central to Gondolin that we’ll probably fiddle with down the road.
NYC, Here We Come!
Off to NYC with my parents. First time there for my mom, first time back for my dad since he was 18. Ellis Island, Wall Street, Lower Manhattan, Times Square. Should be a fun trip. Watch for photos.
Vacation
Slow blogging for next ten days. yay!
On Reading
Sir Francis Bacon. “Some books are to be tasted, others to be swallowed, and some few to be chewed and digested: that is, some books are to be read only in parts, others to be read, but not curiously, and some few to be read wholly, and with diligence and attention.” [Motivational Quotes of the Day]

Fucking Hackers
So they take down a guy’s machine that I admin for him, leading me into three days of system administration hell. Now fixed. Annoying as all get out.
Props to the folks at Voxel who helped immensely and got the server back up and reinstalled in no time at all. Much love to Raj, Derek, John, and Mattias.
