Putting the Gray in Graytail

So, a couple of weeks ago, I started a goatee - it really started itself, but I stopped fighting with it. Looks pretty cool, but WAY more gray/white in it than on my head.

Then, I went to my annual eye exam - and all of a sudden I need $%^&^^& bifocals. Grr.

Then I saw my doctor, and he prescribed a sleep study. So I went last night...

...and I have severe sleep apnea. The dangerous kind - oxygen levels getting scary low. So now, I get to spend the rest of my $%^&^^& life tied to a $%^& CPAP machine every night:




There's an off chance that if I lose enough weight (Atkins is going pretty well), the problem will go away - but that's rare.

Meanwhile, I'm gonna see if Kim wants to play "Darth Vader Meets the Space Wench..."

ATF Head Recruited by RIAA

by Kent Van Cleave

First we need to terrorize the file-sharing industry into submission, eliminating criminal opportunities. Then we need to terrorize those still tempted to copy music illegally by showing that we can nail them on mere suspicion. By applying the ATF model to our efforts at RIAA, we'll have both prongs covered.

Note - this is humor. Pointed humor, but humor nonetheless...
