Hump Day
Wed Nov 24 2004

Wednesday, it doesn’t feel like a Wednesday. How can it be Wednesday already? I don’t remember Monday and yesterday is fading rapidly. Where does the time go? At least I don’t have any appointments today.

We got our tests back yesterday in class and I was thrilled to have a vowel for a grade. I’m having fun in this class, but for some reason feel very disconnected while there. I feel more like I’m watching myself do the work rather than actually doing it myself. The class has a fancy computer oriented name, but it should be titled Visual Basic 101.

I’ve been watching with amusement the stories about the new pat-down procedures being done in airports now. They should be renamed to grab & grope procedures. I understand the why, and personally I’m OK with it, but I’m not traveling any time soon and won’t be subjected to the possibility of being one of the randomly selected passengers to be groped. The stories always end with the statement that you can request the pat-down be done in private, and you can request a same gender inspector. I’m wondering if there are any people out there who ask for an opposite gender inspector just to see the reaction they get.

    I know what you mean about the airport groping. I have been chosen more times than not to be searched. It was before 9-1-1 too. I guess I look criminal???

    I smiled and chuckled quietly to myself while reading the article from Canada.

    I'd like to redefine some terms: what used to be Conservative has become Radical (back to the Dark Ages before Women's Suffrage). What used to be Liberal has become, in comparison, Conservative or Middle-of-the-Road.

    Check out the thinking of 15-20 years ago, and make your own comparisons.
