Happy Bornday Newtie! Feel free to peek in on him and say howdy!
Free rides on tri-rail today notification was a bit late, and on a poorly chosen day… but why look a gift ticket in the mouth?
Just go to Tri-Rail’s Website at www.tri-rail.com, then print out a voucher that will let you ride the commuter train anywhere between Miami and West Palm Beach for free all day today, Thursday, Oct. 5, 2006.
The giveaway is designed to mark national Communities in Motion Day, an annual promotion mounted by the American Public Transportation Association to promote the use of mass transit and to educate the public about its benefits.
Watched Ultimate Avengers wasn’t too bad, but I really prefer JLU. I never did see season 5, and I’m pretty impressed! Deadman episode, Warlord Episode, redone Carter Hall, Legion of Doom, a Flash Rogues Gallery episode… pretty nice way to exit with a bang.
Most enlightening quote overheard yesterday – “libertarians — people who think roads just happen”
Of course, that’s a bottled way of saying what Brooke Shelbey Biggs says… “Libertarianism is uninformed capitalist greed in civil-rights clothing” and that there are “a few issues libertarians tend to ignore when talking about the promise of a future without government interference: inherent cultural disadvantage and affirmative action; public-works projects like freeways for all those new-money Jags around Silicon Valley; funding for the arts; child-abuse prevention and intervention; medical care for the elderly; and too many more to list”.
A lot of criticism… especially since I go along with the basic premise of “be nice, let people do what they want for the most part, as long as they don’t hurt someone else that doesn’t want to be hurt.”
Feeling the beginnings of a case of bronchitis, I think. Coughing is getting worse, as is muscle soreness and increased tiredness – possibly a minor fever, too? CC at work sighed, tsked or clucked with maximum histrionics every time I cough, which makes me laugh… and made me cough a bit more as a result. I had a pretty bad jag at about 10pm last night, so I’m heading to the doctor if I can get in this morning.
