Bunnies Everywhere!
So we have a lot of rabbits in our neighborhood. Living between a large park and a forest preserver makes for a significant amount of wildlife at times. Last night was just plain ridiculous however. After turning off the main drag and into our neighborhood we counted 14 rabbits in the about 4 blocks it takes to get to our house, plus one more in the back yard.
15 bunnies sighted in under 3 minutes! The previous record was 11. We've had as many as 6 in our yard at one time!
There are also plenty of chipmunks and squirrels, The the occasional raccoon or deer. And a couple months ago a beaver just down the street!

Nothing Special
Just some links
A podcast novel called EarthCore. I haven't downloaded it yet, but it looks interesting and its free after all.
Some MP3's of Abbie Hoffman.
Part 2 of Windows to Linux migration at Tom's Hardware. Part 1 is about preperation.

Heroes, Penguins and a few Pictures
I recently started playing City of Heroes. Having fun checking out the various Archetypes and power combinations. Last night involved a particularly long Atta mission that had a number of funny moments. At the end we all posed for a few 'group photos'.
Also Penguicon is coming up. I haven't been to it before, but hear it is a blast. Hope to attend this year if work schedules and budgets.

Mecha Invade Alaska
I came across this article about a guy in Alaska that is building a 'mecha'. Looks like fun.

Long time, no post, but then anyone that actually reads this page knows that.
Today I feel like actaully putting a rant donw into words. The past week or so has really sucked at work. Now I know compared to many I have it really good and really have nothing to complain about. The situation I have been dealing with is just very frustrating for a 'pretend' anal person like myself.
I think what it really comes down to is that I really hate working with other people. They do not communicate, act like children, feel that only they know best, will take no resposibility for there own actions and statements, are amazing hypocrites and so on.
In reality I am no better then anyone else at doing any of these things better, but at least I try.
That's all for today's whining. I just really hate not being independently wealthy.
