Swift Merciless Justice

Some little CENSORED almost ran me over in the parking lot on my way into work today. You know the kind of kid who drives a CENSORED forest green 1996 Cavalier with a back seat full of garbage? You know ‘em they wear white hoodies and baggy pants with chains. Well, after he almost killed me he whipped into a parking stall, two actually because he parked over the line, and then went into the school without buying a pass. So when I got up stairs I called security and get him ticketed.

So I was feeling pretty great about this, then it got even better. I was informed that the tickets that get handed out here have the force or normal municipal tickets, and that they are $65 instead of $35. Aww shucks, I bet he needed that money for smokes too.

swift and brutal

Reducing Posting for Now

I use my blog both as a way to spread information to other people that might be of interest to them, and to catalog things for myself; eg. links I may want to find later, but don’t want to bookmark, or ideas I might forget if I don’t write down.

However, I’ve found that Wordpress is not adequate for where I want to take my public writing in the future, and since I can’t find a decent package, even a Django project to start with. So I will be writing my own. I hate re-inventing the wheel, but it just seems nothing has what I want.

That said, I don’t want to invest more effort in trying to make this work when that time can be spent working on something better.

They might be a little creepy, but I’d like to have seen them in their hay day
