heroes, tragic
Jan. 15th, 2003 10:15 amAny perfect one-pillar virtue is also its own tragic flaw, when the virtue is perfect in a human. A perfection of a severe virtue, or a perfection of a merciful one, will either one of them ultimately destroy their holder.
One must have both pillars of the virtue, and seek balance in the middle one in order to avoid tragedy.

Open up the task manager. Begin killing off processes.
On Win2K, killing off "explore.exe" gets rid of your desktop and other juicy functions. So, we started a new task, and got it back.
Very amusing.

Anyone with inside dish on these issues (what's happening, who's wanking what, et cetera) is invited to dish about it! Curiousity, yadda yadda yadda.

Giggling about stuff. Very tired. Observed to Yakky that his clothing smells like cat piss.
Understand that I am tired enough to not censor very much to people I know and trust. So he made the "Damn, but I just washed this" noises. And then he makes the "Oh, so that's what the dishwashing liquid was" noise.
I giggle, "So you wash your clothes in the dishwasher?"
This leads to more discussion, including the concept that underwear has to go on the pots & pans cycle...
