Look! Bigfoot!

Two of my co-workers were excitedly passing around an e-mail reprinting a quote from Chapter 9, Verse 11 of the Koran predicting that an enraged Eagle would cleanse the lands of Allah. Needless to say, the e-mail's a hoax (as a quick online check confirmed), but they were pretty disappointed to discover so. I then had to inform them that no, neither Mister Rogers nor Captain Kangaroo were Navy Seals or Marine sharpshooters.

Hmmm... I think I need to make something good up for them and send it to them through an anonymous remailer. Any suggestions?

My anniversary was quite good... nice and quiet; raininva and I lead busy, interesting enough lives that a low-key evening counts as a welcome vacation these days. Invisifest was a lot of fun, too, though I discovered that it's unwise to try to learn Amplitude while DDRMax is pounding away behind you. The XBox game with the full 'Mech control panel was cool-looking, but I'd rather play it sometime when I can sit and actually learn what's going on.

I'm almost finished (finally) Red Faction on the PS2; when I do, I can start the first episode of dot/Hack. Rain bought me all three for our anniversary!

I'm still not sure what my costumes will be this year for Halloween and Rising Star Emcee, though Jerry's suggestion of a rather desperate Tokyo Civil Defense worker as my costume for the latter was pretty good. Less than six weeks to get them together...
