I'm pretty sure I would have seen Avatar by now if it weren't for 'You're not in Kansas anymore, you're on Pandora'. What worries me is that's the line they chose to feature in the trailer. It suggests that they're proud of it. _

We need robot doctors.  We could call them docots.

I have an appointment with an orthopede. My current diagnosis from my doctor is Chondromalacia Patella, but I am not confident in it. I'm leaning more towards Patellar Tendinitis, it fits better, both with how I injured it and when it hurts. I like the internet. I do not, on the other hand, like my knee. I badly do not want surgery. What I want is someone to tell me what I can do, what I should avoid, and so on. I think it's worse than it was in the fall: at this point I'm pretty much constantly aware of it. _

I can't be the only one who has injured themselves by eating chocolate pudding by shaping the foil lid as a spoon.   Yet chocolate pudding injury is google unique.

 The internet should have a multiple choice quiz that takes you through all the Christian schisms and heresies in chronological order, and tells you what heresy or sect you are.  It would get complicated, though, because it wouldn't be a simple tree.  (I fell into the wikipedia hole reading about Coptic Christians and the Council of Chalcedon)  Tracking the dodgings and weavings of dogma through the history of the early church would be rough.

For the indefinite future I plan to write 2010 by writing 200, pausing, and trying to cram a 1 in between the 0's. _

Am I the only one who was more worried about the plane that went off the runway in Jamaica than the small fire on the plane in Detroit?  And more worried about crossing the street than either?  Or is anybody actually worried?  Maybe it's just grist for the noise machine.

Former Abramoff clients, the Wampanoag take a break from trying to extort a resort casino out of the state in order to try to block Cape Wind. At least their former chairman is still in prison. _

 Looks like I might actually have to bother to vote on Jan 19th: the only poll that's been done shows it's somewhat close, and the main issue appears to be whether torture is a clever idea or not.   _

Zhang Yimou has remade Blood Simple. I seem to have stopped watching movies, but I think I may need to see that. _

Today I've been feeling like I'd rather be a census worker.  This is probably a bad sign.

 My Sansa Clip+ takes the same USB/power adapter as my blackberry.  Hurrah for gradual standardization!  Death to proprietary plugs!  I am very pleased with it so far: particularly the dedicated buttons for power and volume.  I realize that these aren't great innovations, but wow they're useful things.  I think it'll be much, much better for cycling than my late lamented nano.  I got pretty good at moving the little lock slider on the top with my teeth, but I'm just as happy not to.  Only downside so far is that something on the bus creates FM interference.  The monochrome display also makes me happy for no apparent reason. _
