LW -50h

Posted by TFG on 30th May 2005

Give or take a few.

I think the thing to do, if I go, is to stay over till Monday and fly to Chicago from Lost Wages. That means six pairs of clean underwear, a decent set of clothes, extra boots, nice coat, and collateral. And we haven’t even started on the presentation yet. I guess there’s a Kinkos somewhere near the Plaza?

This is why I want to stay home. Why bother leaving town, if work just follows me? I’ve already got con-calls out the ying-yang on Thursday and Friday. It’s a GD guarantee that I’ll be scrounging around for a color printer and a stapler. Whee.

Memorial Day

Posted by TFG on 30th May 2005

People sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf.
- George Orwell

This short and simple quote has stuck with me since the day I first read it. Today, we honor the ones who died doing violence on our behalf. Because they are dead, we can only honor them through words & deeds. This is humbling, as there is simply no way to express the depths of my gratitude with mere words. All I can do is say it, and then pray that my deeds make me & mine worthy of their sacrifice.
