Why? Why? Why am I spending Friday night clearing out my in box?
There were 1900 e-mails in my in box when I sat down an hour ago. Now there are only 1250 or so. I feel good about that, but pathetic at the same time.
There has to be a German word for “the feeling you get when you are happy to be making a little progress in something, but then you realize how pitiful you really are to be happy about such a dorky thing on a Friday night.”

So, the answer to my question, “Why am I at home last night sorting e-mails on a Friday night,” is apparently because I lost track of Mike Arnzen’s e-mailed invitation to do dinner that night.
That’s sadly, pathetically fitting.
Rain check, Mike? That is, if you still want to be seen in public with me now?

Dude, you are as big a freak on a leash as ever! I must say, though, that you had the “blog” thing in the bag long before anyone knew whatever the hell it was. Kudos!
How’s life, /et al/? Your hyper-mandibular-trichosis might indicate a change in domestic disposition…not to mention your conspicuous display of sperlunking prowess!

Great to hear from you, Eddie! I sported that particular facial hairstyle shortly after my wife saw The Lord of the Rings trilogy, and I guess she liked the look. So who was I to argue? I’ll send you an e-mail…
Eddie is one of my friends who gathered late Sunday nights to watch Star Trek: The Next Generation, which the local TV station aired at midnight Sundays. So, Eddie, have you seen White and Nerdy?
