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 Still Got Nothing

But if I don’t post for more than 2 days I get angry letters…

The above pic­ture is from last Sunday’s Geor­gia geo­caching adven­ture and tonight after the MMC monthly meet­ing we walked a block over to find a newish cache and drop off the Travel Bug we grabbed near where that pic­ture was taken, all we took from the cache was a plas­tic coin that looks a lit­tle like pirate trea­sure, which reminded me that last night I watched the mid­dle two thirds of TDPM, com­mer­cials and all, on the ABC Fam­ily Chan­nel and the day before, Tues­day, my man­ager told me he had seen the fourth install­ment, On Stranger Tides, over the week­end and it was the best of all the Pirates of the Caribbean flicks, but I can’t really trust his judge­ment because he is a New York Yan­kee fan and because the FRS have lost the last three games in a row after tak­ing over first place in the Amer­i­can League East Divi­sion the MFY are now back in first by two games.

Started up, went down, back up, still up.

Any Man Who Falls Behind, Is Left Behind

Decided to go ahead and wash the car. I couldn’t use the excuse that it might rain any­more, I’ve used it for the past week or so, and the weather fore­cast was for more of the same for the next tens days…

I knew I shouldn’t have watched the game. The FRS lost to the Yan­kees tonight on ESPN. They lost on Thurs­day as I watched on ESPN2 and then they lost Sat­ur­day after­noon on FOX with me on the couch. The Sox won big, 17–1, on Fri­day when they weren’t on TV, I didn’t even lis­ten. So I shouldn’t have watched them on TV tonight, they prob­a­bly would have won the game.

The only thing that saved the night was right after the game I found TDPM play­ing and it was only an hour in. :)

Bar­bossa: Why thank ye, Jack.
Jack Spar­row: You’re wel­come.
Bar­bossa: Oh, not you. We named the mon­key Jack.

Started down, went up, still up.
