Hard to know whether to file this under excessive government spending, loss of civil liberties (nearly full day detention due to carrying honey), or runaway health care costs.
— Philip Greenspun, commenting on a report that two bottles of honey set off explosives detection systems, and led to a gardener being detained and two TSA agents being hospitalized.Categories

End is in sight
Of the executrix gig. I just printed off the statement of income, expenses and deductions that the lawyer for Bonnie's estate needs to file the estate taxes. Yesterday I sent what I believe to be the final check to the IRS to cover the tax mess she was in. If you ever have to do [...]
Cleaning out the house of a deceased person
I've been thinking about this experience because of writing up the summary for the IRS of what we sold and donated. There are other good stories to tell, but here's the email I sent to the list of Bonnie's friends about a month after she died: Subject: [Bonnienews] deadlines I have been officially appointed executrix [...]
RIP, Senator Kennedy
I've been thinking quite a bit about Ted Kennedy since he died a couple of days ago. I grew up in Massachusetts, so via the miracle of television, he's spent a lot of time in my living room, even though I didn't know him personally, and I only remember once when we were in the [...]
Going to be late today
I took care of a problem with the book database on the Serpent Publications site before I started the diatribe about how unsupportive the financial services industry is of people whose friends are dying, and I need lunch before I can finish it.
Tufte-inspired LaTeX class
One of the things I do when I'm putting off doing a piece of writing because I won't enjoy it is figure out a new way to publish it so that it will at least look good. I ran across the Tufte LaTex package on the comp.text.tex newsgroup yesterday and downloaded it. It really does [...]
The Color of Magic
This DVD is actually two episodes made for TV of the Pratchett novels The Color of Magic and The Light Fantastic. Like Hogfather, which was made a couple of years before The color of magic, it's very faithful to the book, and very inventive visually. This is unsurprising because Pratchett himself was involved in the [...]
Psalm 137
I've posted to the Serpent Publications Blog what I've been doing about that site. One of the items was to add the rest of the verses Clement Marot wrote for Psalm 137. It was actually Bonnie who always complained about the idea of singing the rest of the psalm because she didn't want to sing [...]
One third down
I started this project of posting something to my blog every day on February 25, four months ago. So if it ends up being a one-year project, it's one third done. I have been successful at making a post every day. The only one that was a real "I can't post today" post was last [...]
