I'll be on my way to TEXAS! Yeehaw! I wore my cowboy shirt today, and everything. I'm a-gonna buy me some cowboy boots.

Babies! I am here, in beautiful Funroe. The Chao family get DSL! Whee!

Berman, please tell me you got the e-mail I sent you last night.

No! I'm going to forward it to the rest of MATH so they can know your new enemy, too.

I don't understand why your enemy wrote to AB, when your Sixers thing was on HYD...

I'll kick that guy's ass.

Different entry ... I guested for AB as well, and did in fact call Philly fans assholes.

I just love how he called him an a**hole. What a toughie.

Are you going to see the Pineapple?

Probably tomorrow - I need to call her. We're going to see music tomorrow night, for sure, but I'm not sure who or where. I'm going to buy cowboy boots, though. Yes, sir.

Seriously, what the hell is up with Iran? And the 22nd. Is it the 22 of September, October, or November 22 (Thanksgiving)?

September, if I understand correctly.

And I have to work.

What now? What about Sept 22?

-- Anonymous, September 21, 2001

I don't know - what is supposed to happen on September 22? It's "significant"?

-- Anonymous, September 21, 2001

Apparently the terrorists might have been planning something for that day. Not sure what the story is now.

Off topic, and stupid, but I have to tell y'all:

This morning, I woke up after Chris left and thought I heard a dog whining. I freaked out and jumped up and ran around the apartment looking for "our dog."

I was in the kitchen when I finally realized... we don't have a dog.

I've never done anything like that before, though I have said crazy things when I woke up - but actually getting out of bed and panicking?! I laughed at myself, but it's sort of not funny.

Maybe it's just from stress.

Hey -- that reminded me ... my mom and dad are getting a puppy Sunday. Whoo-hoo!

Also, why is MATH+1 so quiet today?

-- Anonymous, September 21, 2001

Oh Al, I've done that before. I've never gotten all the way to the kitchen, but. . ..

A few days ago John Ashcroft said that it's come out in their investigation that the 22nd of September is/was/would've been a significant date. But they're not releasing more details. (Rightly so, I'd think.)

I don't know. It was quiet yesterday too. Fridays are usually busy, though.

The annoying thing about Greenspun is you can't really tell if there are a lot of lurkers.

-- Anonymous, September 21, 2001

It was really quiet yesterday, especially in the afternoon. I think it will pick up today, simply because it's Friday.

Now we're all quiet too. Is it the lunch coma?

I met Chris for lunch. But I'm back now. I'm leaving at three to head for the airport. Mercifully, I got a hold of a Delta Crown Room Club card.

Your flight's at 530? Or did I just make that number up?

I want to add -olicious to everything today. Because I'm clazy like that. I'm also very bored.

Yeah, people will either love it or hate it. But I feel like a big ol' hypocrite, being as I also said on the forum I have no plans to enlist.

Oh, well. Que sera sera.

Why isn't the clock moving faster?

-- Anonymous, September 21, 2001

Why would that make you feel like a hypocrite? Just because you agree with a military course of action, but choose to remain a civilian doens't make you a hypocrite. It just means that you recognize that you're better suited for civilian duty. Being a responsible, contributing member or our economy is more important than ever, you know?

Well, no. It's because I really could capture bin Laden and conquor the Taliban if I chose to. I am, after all, The Bermanator.

Hee. True, true.

If any of you are wondering, Melissa asked the brokers in her office and they're all buying GE for the clients. My mom wants me to buy Johnson & Johnson (jnj) and for a long term hold, it was also given the big thumbs up from Mo's brokers.

I htought about buying some airline stock and holding on to it for a while - it's usually waaaaay to expensive to buy, but now it's attainable.

I would need to somehow acquire the spare cash first, is the problem.

Ask Mo why my Staples stock is doing so badly.

T - if you do, I'd only buy Delta. It was undervalued before and it's one of the few that has no plans for lay-offs. It'll probably come out of this mess better than before.

-- Anonymous, September 21, 2001

Actually, Delta's going to do some layoffs next week. For some reason, though, my gut tells me that Delta will make it through this the least scathed.

I am clearly not in a serious, world-tragdy mood today.

You know those lights you can buy to stick on the wall in your closet or wherever - they're called "Touch Lights?"

-- Anonymous, September 21, 2001

They're little round disks, you know? And you touch them and they light up?

-- Anonymous, September 21, 2001

Anyway...

I bought a few of them today at Target, because there is no light in my closet and I can't see anything in there.

Well...

They happen to be about the same size as... you know... a fairly large... breast implant, I guess.

And if you stick them under your t-shirt... you can hardly tell they're there... until you press on them... and... you can possibly play the funniest joke ever on the MOC when he comes home...

I want to say hello to amber & KC -- this is CaseK -- and state for the record that this is terrifically bogus. I say "Shmeh." This whole thing makes me very sad; it reminds me of my divorce.

Assuming she's talking about squishettes.com and not the attacks, I'm thinking she needs a little perspective.
