Sturgeon’s Law

Ninety per­cent of every­thing is crap.


Derived from a quote by sci­ence fic­tion author Theodore Stur­geon, who once said, “Sure, 90% of sci­ence fic­tion is crud. That’s because 90% of every­thing is crud.” Oddly, when Sturgeon’s Law is cited, the final word is almost invari­ably changed to ‘crap’.

I’m A Citizen

100_0242.jpgAfter a mere 6 weeks my mem­ber­ship card arrived in the mail yes­ter­day. After today’s split with Texas and the Yankee’s loss to Oak­land the FRS magic num­ber for clinch­ing the Amer­i­can League East crown is 101.

Also yes­ter­day I had a chance to see if the new tires helped make the speedome­ter more accu­rate, short answer no. The bor­rowed GPS unit showed 66MPH when the speedo indi­cated 70. GPS said 37 when the speedome­ter read 40. Looks like when the speed limit on the Inter­state says 70 and I want to go 75, I’m still going to have to get the speedome­ter to read 80MPH.

Trunk Lid Update — I finally used some calipers to mea­sure the trunk lid gaps on Fri­day. The left side moved in the cor­rect direc­tion by .013 and right by only .007, but it looks much straighter to the naked eye.

Paid bills via tan­dem this morn­ing. Went 15 miles to accom­plish it too, first time we have been in dou­ble dig­its since New Year’s Day.
