I love Halloween, mostly for the pumpkins, the pumkin carving, and the pumpkin-seed eating. (e:James) and I went and bought pumpkins today, yay!!!
Also I think I will be dressing up for the Halloween party as either a leopard (in honor of Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard) or else Speed Racer. I'll have to see which I can scramble to put together this week.
Finding a blue helmet might be harder then finding spots.

Oh my god!!!! I never thought I would meet another member of the eagle-eyes-for-significant-odometer-readings club! I actually celebrated my odometer hitting 6666 :)

Martin Fowler's "Patterns of Enterprise Application Architecture" is a must-read for anyone who works both with an object-oriented language and a database. It is one of the best $50 I've ever spent.
I think he probably has too much real-world programming experience to be classified as a "computer scientist". :)

yeah, I really want to know her story. I talked to a guy who works in psych at ECMC and the other hospitals, and even he has never met anyone that has talked to her. Such a mystery!!!

I swallowed so many words. :/
Today is correction fluid day, so here goes...
- who these people are (omit ? mark)
- Why are *they* clothed...
- Don't they *feel* uncomfortable *under* all
those layers of cloth?
- *(*followers of Jainisms = Jains)

I have wondered a million times who these people are? Why are clothed like aliens from sci-fi movies? Don't they uncomfortable with all those cloth layers? Are they under some secrecy oath?
There is a religion in India called Jainism 9followers = Jains). The monks from this religion wear white masks over their mouths to prevent the inhalation of flying creatures (yeah, as if nostril hairs weren't enough). They are called the Swetambara (Sheathed-in-white) monks. They carry whisk-brooms to prevent themselves from stepping on crawling creatures, don't walk on the grass and only go outside during daylight. The very rigid among them don't eat root vegetables that destroy the plant. They follow the principle of non-violence to its extreme meanings.
I am sure the alien-look-alikes on Allen can't be Jains. Who are they? Scientologists??

LeopardCategory: computers
So, I preordered Apple Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard (™, ®, etc). This is what I'm looking forward to:
- Spaces / multiple workspaces
- Tabbed, internationalized terminal
- Time Machine
- Death of Metal
- Finder Improvements
- Learning Objective C 2.0 now that it's got GC
- Playing with the Cocoa-Ruby bridge.
But also to some new 10.5 only apps that are coming out shortly.

Does NASA know about feature 2,3 4 and 5? Their last 20 years of research overtaken in one leopardy bound...

We went to a nursery, I got 3 big ones for a total of $25.
There are a couple really large pumpkin farms around that I'm definitely going to go back to next year, it's too expensive otherwise.
I almost bought one today but they are kinda expensive at Wegmans. I need to find a farm that sells them for a dollar.
