I just downloaded and installed a program called x2x on my two Indys. I can now pretend it's xinerama as I scroll my mouse off one screen and onto the other, controlling both from a single mouse and keyboard.

This week and next week I'm commuting down to Holland, MI, ever day to do some contract work for The Image Group. It's Intershop work, so it's not exactly fun or clean, but hey, it's work, it's money, and it's sort of Perl.

As I walked to lunch today, it was snowing. Now it's snowing harder. The ground's not that cold so I doubt any will stick, but still... Snow... And I'm wearing sandals.

I'm now back in Michigan, writing this from one of my trusty SGI Indys. These boxes are definitely not fast, but they're functional. And the internal speaker on an Indy is amazingly good.

Things are starting to take shape. I've got three good pages in which I've outlined the theories of Hobbes, Locke, and Rawls.
