  • 22:14 Among things keeping me mildly busy is new project that I’ve been contemplating for a while. Got a person to sign on to help. #
  • 22:39 The annoying thing about going back to old projects is you look at the artful flow chart and ask yourself, “Why the hell did I do that?!?!” #
  • 22:42 @Arclite I’ll see you and raise you. twitpic.com/zt029 But then again, you’ve never seen my dock. #
