Of the 338 spam emails I’ve received since last Thursday (more than 56 junk messages per day), 40 contained “/remove.”, 26 contained “/unsubscribe.”, 25 contained “link2buy.com” and another 19 contained “qves.com”. Altogether, those four terms isolate more than 32% of my recent junk mail.

I’m trying to catch up on work in the few days between my family’s visit and this coming weekend’s events. This new parent stuff is a different kind of exhausting that I haven’t previously experienced.
I had no idea Ben was updating his site with details of the weekend while he was here. Ben’s amazing. And funny. He’s also a mystery. I was with him the whole weekend and had no idea this stuff was going through his head:
My mom, dad and brothers are visiting this weekend. This is my parent’s first visit to New York City and first time meeting Lila, so I’m going to be spending most all of my time showing them around. Be back Tuesday.
Lila’s photo page is up to date through week 8.
MacStumbler – Finally a wireless network scanning (war driving) tool for the Mac. This is going to be so much easier than clicking the menu bar over and over while riding in cabs.
I got a new PowerBook on Friday, it stopped working shortly thereafter. More later when I know how this ends.
For some twisted reason this reminded me of a passage from the miscellaneous section of Bartlett’s Familiar Quotations:
It is so soon that I am done for,
I wonder what I was begun for.
I remember finding that back in college and being blown away by it. Now, as a parent, it just freaks me out. I’m continually thankful for modern science. My mind often makes bizarre connections without asking first; garbage in, garbage out.
Odds are, I’m not going to get to go to the movies for a while. Considering my microscopic attention span and uncanny ability to nitpick everything to death, I’m not all that upset about it. That said, I really wish I could have been in the theater for this: Yoda Kicking Ass.
