My more serious diary:
A Walk Through the
Valley of the Shadow

Today we celebrate the birthday of David Rittenhouse, born in 1732. He was an early American mathematician, surveyor, clock maker, astronomical instrument maker, and compadrione of Benjamin Franklin.

Yesterday nothing happened. The garden soil was too damp to dig so I stayed indoors and spent a coupla hours picking up heavy things and putting them back down again. Like, for instance, bench press 115 pounds, for which the championship weightlifter member of my family accuses me of being a wimp for being unable to bench press at least twice that much.

But anyhow, did you know that the Bible actually says that the concept of God was dreamed up by a buncha fraudsters? Well, maybe not in exactly those words, but the equivalent thereof.

Somewhere in one of the Psalms, I think. It says something like he who says there's no God is a fool. Typical fraudster ploy. You've got no evidence, so you resort to calling somebody a fool for not believing your hogwash.

But anyhow, I think the soil is gonna dry out a bit today, in spite of nice promises of coastal flooding as grandiosely announced by the Wondrous Weather Website.

Oh by the way, Zone Alarm is great! I was surfing the web yesterday and got one of these fraudulent banners which I always ignore that says my computer needs upgraded to run faster and it was immediately accompanied by a Zone Alarm banner warning me of a Trojan Intrusian. Zone Alarm then trashed the indruder.

Happy Tuesday!

Oh by the way, if you're one of those insufferable snooty folks who think
you've just gotta have a (gasp) banner (shudder) to link to me,
I suppose I'll let you download this one for the purpose, if you really insist.
