"Persecuted Like Jews"

ROME - A senior Vatican priest speaking at a Good Friday service compared the uproar over sexual abuse scandals in the Catholic Church - which have included reports about Pope Benedict XVI's oversight role in two cases - to the persecution of the Jews, sharply raising the volume in the Vatican's counterattack.

--

I hope the Catholic Church collapses. Really. Not because I'm persecuting them, but because they're more of an entrenched bureaucratic institution than a vital cultural force.

1.0!

At work we just went 1.0 and released our project (it's college admissions software).

Pretty awesome feeling after 8 months of hard work. (Along with (e:zobar) my new co-worker)

This is a drawing of a ship, in honor of shipping.

This is the cutest terrorist boy I've ever seen.

The Cat Came Back, the Very Next Day

My cat snuck outside last night, and I couldn't find him. But he showed up on the porch this morning.

My cat is 50% evil and 50% cuddly and 100% awesome. I hate him sometimes but I was very sad not to have him sleeping on my feet last night.

A++++++

Zetti's at 976 Elmwood near Bidwell. Pizza is awesome. Everything is
awesome. No reason to ever again go to Casa Di Pizza.

paul writes at 11:32:16 03/20/10 - Comment #55384: That penne looks yummy but I was torn on the pizza, we had it from St Patricks day. Maybe its just because we had plain pizza but I am more of a fan of thicker pizza.

As for Casa, I was done with that place after the sickenwings (e:39650)

tinypliny writes at 11:37:52 03/19/10 - Comment #55377: Um. Casa was never any good, at least according to me. I would go to Ambrosia across that street ANYDAY over Casa.

metalpeter writes at 06:44:39 03/19/10 - Comment #55369: Noodles Look Tasty, and before it was Sahara it was Just Pizza, I think when they really Just Had Pizza.

matthew writes at 11:34:14 03/19/10 - Comment #55363: I wonder if they make gluten free pizza.

jim writes at 11:28:13 03/19/10 - Comment #55362: I think it's better -- seems like Paul & Mike disagree :)

theecarey writes at 11:05:11 03/19/10 - Comment #55360: I saw they took up residence at the old Sahara Grill but haven't been in yet. Better than Casa, huh? Now I am intrigued..

jason writes at 08:41:16 03/19/10 - Comment #55351: Nice. Thanks for the tip

tinypliny writes at 11:09:25 03/18/10 - Comment #55348: Maybe you caught them on a wrong day? Because my was REALLY crispy with a light and refreshing smattering of cheese - almost like a light crispy cheese cracker with garlic, onions and peppers. mmmmm....

mike writes at 09:50:47 03/18/10 - Comment #55347: i know i am like the only person that feels this way besides (e:paul) but I do not like their pizza. It reminded me of putt-putt/the pizza they served at middle school. Wet cardboardy crust with government gluey cheese.

tinypliny writes at 09:21:48 03/18/10 - Comment #55346: Wow - they are HERE! I really like their pizza!

Aaargh

Work is crazy. In the next two weeks lots to do but we launch the app we've been developing March 29th! Security audits, data integrity checks, integration stuff. Blah blah blah.

But soon -- very soon -- it will help decide which kids get into, or not into, colleges. Kinda scary to hold so many futures in my hands. This is pretty much the biggest thing I've ever done professionally.

One downside, it's making me look old and grumpy:

But I can live with that :)

I also got a really nice annual review, I'm pretty down on myself usually but feel awesome for a few days after something like that going well.

Back to work...
