Wedding Rings

...of course, our rings won't be gold, nor will they be intertwined in some crazy manner which prevents either of us from ever putting them on. But they'll be on our fingers on October 2nd!

Volleyball/Webmaster Status Codes

Some of the crazy thoughts that go through my head... yesterday I was watching some of the other teams play at De Smet (where I'll be coaching the freshmen volleyball team this year), and I thought of a relevant comparison between HTTP/1.1 status codes and volleyball plays.

The problem with general purpose languages as configuration languages

Lately, one of the popular ways to configure programs is not to comeup with a custom configuration language or format (and the associatedparsers and so on) but to use a general purpose language for thispurpose, generally augmented with as much of a DSL as you can wedge in.One example of this is Rake , but thereare others; I have the impression that it's most popular when there maybe actual logic that you need to express in the program configuration,as is the case for makefiles

啤梨型的結他是要抱著彈的,橫在大腿,雙手環抱,練習的時候常常

小城困局

我已 談過 哲學教席是如何的難找,事實上其他的人文學科(歷史、文學、藝術等)都有這個情況,因此,這些博士們只要在教席爭奪戰勝出了,無論那是間甚麼大學位處美國那個角落,大多都會先接受了,寧可騎牛揾馬,總好過

Sunshine Cleaning 主要講女主角露絲 人到中年時面對的一連串煩惱,她在

晚境悽涼

今天駕了五小時車到灣區探望一個老朋友,回來後不禁有點感慨。

說她是老朋友,不只是因為認識了十多年,還因為她年紀比我大很多,已年近七十。她是我們初到美國時的鄰居,和丈夫兩人都很熱心助人,幫了我們不少忙,大
