I went to work yesterday.

Man, I love going into work on Sunday. If I stayed home, I would just futz on the computer and watch TV, and at work I futz on the computer and watch videos and get two days work done and get paid overtime.
What's not to like?

So I watched While You Were Sleeping, previously proven to be the most depressing movie ever made, Fargo, which I love, and Copycat, which wasn't nearly as bad as the reviews led me to believe. A quite respectable serial killer thriller. My only argument was the bit with the suit.

I don't know about yourself, but if I had nearly been killed, I'd probably get rid of the clothes that I had been wearing at the time, but maybe that's just me...

It was Puerto Rican Day yesterday, and when I was coming home of the subway last night there was this guy across from me who perhaps had partaken a bit too much of the juice of the grape (or the juice of the Colt 45) and was all cuddled up sleeping wearing shades and a jester's hat with a Puerto Rican flag between his legs, sucking his thumb.

I would have given alot to have had my camera with me.

America Off-Line: the Complete Outernet Starter Kit by A.J. Jacobs
Trendy Outernet service America Off-Line boasts 250 million members and a sophisticated interactive network-The World Wide World. Meet interesting people through Internet-like chat rooms, known as "parties". Take advantage of the lightweight word processor with an automatic save function, the "pencil". Learn about antivirus programs that implement chicken soup. With easy-to-follow tips to orient "newbies", EW staff writer Jacobs cleverly uploads the obvious in this caustic, deadpan, at-least-three-snickers-a-page spoof of cyberspace that would have us treat "nonvirtual Reality" as merely the place where we plug in our modems.

I was listening to Paul Anka sing Diana on the radio the other day, and I realized for the first time that the line: "I'm so young and you're so old", actually isn't that great a thing to say to a woman...
