just a regular day at work

one of the kid's friends posed a riddle a few weeks ago that i just couldn't get my head around. to be fair, i was seeing-double from exhaustion at the time but i still don't think i would have gotten it. it's a cute one involving a line of people wearing hats and trying not to die.

this morning i read a mail that reminded me of it, so i sent it out to the section. there were a few quick responses, a few late starters, and some of the guys were driven crazy the whole day. that was fun :)

i just misread this headline, i'm a bit too quick with imaginary hyphenation.

gotta go to the bank tomorrow, in herzeliya, so i tried to cancel my doctor's appointment (that i've been waiting for for a while) and they weren't answering the phone.

i helped one of the guys with the final stage of his university application - he asked me for an overall opinion, and i told him that i'd let him attend if it were up to me. based on what we wrote, of course :P

the ride home wasn't nice - the nco's got upset with me because i'm not allowed to carry a weapon and so can't take my turn guarding. i felt bad enough about not being able to help without their "gentle urging". i quote: "what?! a soldier who can't carry a weapon isn't a soldier!". thanks, boys. good on ya'.

watchmen is getting awesome. it was a bit broody and depressing, but about halfway through it's picking up sweetness. can i really say that?

i don't usually care about romania, but i'm feeling sorry for them right now.

it's a finger box!
pretty frikkin' weird.

agrippa - the web site :)
