  • Coincidence?

    John called today, and he's in Fort Worth. Due to lack of sleep, lack of work done, and the necessity of running, there is just no way I can go. Maybe tomorrow.I also got my rejection letter from UCLA. I knew that wou…

  • Increasing Order in Education

    I've been reading The Age of Spiritual Machines by Ray Kurzweil for a long time. A very, very long time. However, I'm finally trying to make a dent in the text, and I have come to find many a brain-tickling idea. …

  • I can do it!

    My mantra for the last mile of the Cowtown Marathon 10K was, "I can do it! I can do it! I can do it!" And I did! I finished the 10K at a personal best of 1:16:12. I'm so proud of myself! It felt so good to run that r…

  • Free the iPhone!

    www.freetheiphone.orgI don't think I would personally switch carriers (I've had AT&T/Cingular since I've had a cell phone), but it would make AT&T more competitive, possibly lowering my rates. Plus, it's the pri…
