Thought for the Day: "Live one meditative day well, with freedom, strength, and wisdom, rather than a hundred years in laziness and bondage." --The Thousands, verses 112 & 113 (Crosweller, Buddhist Wisdom Daily Reflections, p.271)
Brought to eye/mind today: From a scene in "Without A Trace:" "I don't want to be married to you anymore." First thought: a least it's out in the open. Then, would I react? Answer: yes.
Thanks to whoever set of the false alarm at work today. While walking past the fire alarms was excruciating (due to both pitch and volume), the fresh and much-cooler air outside was a welcome alternative to the heat and stuffiness inside.

When Computers Crash
HOLLYWOOD -- The FOX TV Network has announced a new series of "reality
shows" to be aired over the summer. The series, "When Computers Crash",
will consist of five hour-long shows documenting the aftermath of serious
computer crashes, failures, and other problems. This show comes on the
heels of other FOX reality shows such as "World's Funniest Antitrust Trial
Bloopers", "When Stupid TV Network Executives Create Bad Show Ideas", and
"When Lame Fortune Files Poke Fun At FOX Reality Shows"...
To coincide with the series, FOX will sponsor a publicity gimmick called
"Crash & Win!" Contest participants will download a free Windows 9x/NT
program that keeps track of the number of Blue Screens, Illegal
Operations, or other fatal errors that force a reboot. When a crash
occurs, the program will log it in an encrypted database, which will be
periodically uploaded to the "FOX Crash & Win!" server.
Prizes such as a "Deciphering Windows Error Messages for Dummies" book, a
1999 Ford "Gasguzzler" Sport Utility Vehicle, or a lifetime supply of
stress relief medication will be awarded to participants based on the
number of crashes they log.
