Remembered some things about WV I had forgotten.  Went to the museum of TV and Radio for a Muppet 50th Anniversary event.  Realized that if I had seen that presentation when I was the age of 9\/10ths of the participants, I would have totally tried to become a muppeteer.  May still &#8211; apparently being tall and goofy helps.  I made a brain-sucking evil puppet, which I gave to a kid who really wanted it.  I probably should have scared him first, but I did not.<\/p>\n<p>The Giants lost.  The Yanks are in a dead heat with the RS, and for the first time since there was a wild card, neither of them have the safety.  Ulcer city.<\/p>\n<p>I finished the last book in the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fantasticfiction.co.uk\/series\/r_a_salvatores_war_of_the_spider_queen.htm\">War of the Spider Queen<\/a> sextet.  I&#8217;ve been putting it off for a while.  I was somewhat disappointed, somewhat glad that it is over.  It led me to dealing with some major issues I have about fantasy writing and divinity, which I may tackle tin the future, if I remember to.I am also re-reading Harry Potter on lunch hours, as L. grinds through the backlog to get to the latest book.  I need to write in a major way.  I have to start bringing my laptop with me everywhere, or maybe get a Treo keypad.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.cnn.com\/SPECIALS\/2001\/dalai.lama\/\">The Dali Lama<\/a> got a key to the city yesterday.  He is 70!  Crap, there is going to be some big problems when he dies =\/<\/p>\n<p>Big stuff to do this week coming &#8211; trying to gather all the data I need to get them done.<\/p>\n<p>I hope the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.engadget.com\/entry\/1234000117060477\/\">armed attack dolphins<\/a> train dolphins in the wild, and stage a coup against humanity.<\/p>\n<p>Go and download this rehash of <a href=\"http:\/\/ia300110.us.archive.org\/1\/items\/TheBlackLanternGeorgeBushDoesntCareAboutBlackPeopleMusicVideo\/bdcabp_wm.wmv\">&#8220;George Bush Doesn&#8217;t care about Black People&#8221;<\/a>.  Seriously, one of the best music videos I&#8217;ve seen in ages.<\/p>\n<p>I had mentioned some purchases upcoming &#8211; should I go for one 21&#8243; flat screen monitor, or two 19&#8243;?  I miss having two monitors like a mofo, but refuse to dump a grand on two 21&#8243;!<\/p>\n<p>Also &#8211; beds &#8211; as in buying one.  Anyone have any pros\/cons of getting a bed with a built in cabinet\/side tables vs not?  I need end tables for my bedroom, and wouldn&#8217;t mid having a shelf worked in to the headboard.  I am definitely getting a platform bed &#8211; I was thinking something like <a href=\"http:\/\/www.victordinovi.com\/images\/Maybedlarge.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightbox-image-0\" data-rl_title=\"\" data-rl_caption=\"\" title=\"\">this<\/a>,  <a href=\"http:\/\/www.victordinovi.com\/images\/platform_bed.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightbox-image-1\" data-rl_title=\"\" data-rl_caption=\"\" title=\"\">this<\/a> or maybe <a href=\"http:\/\/www.columbiaoak.com\/img\/mdbed.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightbox-image-2\" data-rl_title=\"\" data-rl_caption=\"\" title=\"\">this<\/a>.  Thoughts, opinions, funny stories?<\/p>\n<p>Goals before Christmas: driver&#8217;s license and passport renewal.  Hopefully, I can knock out the DL by the end of the week!  Wednesday I will be dealing with Time Warner, and, hopefully, watching the new <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/exec\/obidos\/tg\/detail\/-\/B000A3DFV8\/104-3189788-0406322?v=glance\">Family Guy Presents Stewie Griffin: The Untold Story (DVD)<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>I was late this morning!
