Sqeak Squeak the Rat is Dead
Squeak Squeak! The Rat is dead! Which old Rat? The Wicked Rat! Squeak Squeak! The Wicked Rat is dead.
Why I Don't Have Post Traumatic Stress Disorder Post 9-11
There is a study I heard reported this morning on NPR that explored the effects of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) on New Yorkers and then on the rest of the nation.
Harry Potter, Oxford, and the Whole Enchilada
I am freshly home from ten days in the UK. Most of the time was spent in Oxford while attending a conference at the University; the rest was spent with delightful friends nearer to London.
London Life After Dark Sunday
London just after dark and into the night near Piccadilly and so forth Just Isn't Cricket.
London, the Baroness, and Me
I spend the entire morning unable to connect with any of my mates in London.
Grand Jury Duty Post Mortem
Before coming to NLADA I received a Jury summons in the mail. Not being worldly enough to know that there was such a massive difference between petit jury and grand jury, I really didnt make much of it. It would be a couple days at most, and I am sure I would be passed over. I was, after all, working for an association known for its position helping poor folks find good legal assistance. What prosecutor would want to put up with such a loose cannon?
Oxford University, Pembroke College, and a Student Cell
After a smashing time in London. Well, a bleeding bloody humid smashingly hot brilliant time in London, I was off to Oxford University.
Smithsonian Young Benefactor Schmooze and Kuna
Last night Sarah invited me to escort her to the Happy Hour at the Clarendon Grill, hosted by the The Young Benefactors of the Smithsonian Institution.
Kuna Italian Restaurant Review
Kuna is such a delicious dreamboat of a little Country Italian cum French Provincial restaurant run like a family joint by the charming and inspired Chef Mark Giuricich.
To Pittsburgh With Love
I spontaneously sped towards Pittsburgh, PA, last Saturday afternoon. Hurtling Northwest on Interstate 70. Moving and passing right at 80-85. Sweet Suzi by my Side. Towards what I thought was an heroic act of being a Gentleman for Miss Sarah Connerley.
Orange GSM SIM for my World Phone
I just bought my first SIM card from Telestial so that when I am in the UK, I will have a British phone number that you can ring me at while I am away for oh such a brief stint.
Title TK by The Breeders - Worth the Decade Wait!
I just picked up Title TK by the Breeders and I must say that its worth the $5 I paid, and even $100 more.
The Gold Buddha
The following story is true. Or, er, rather, I heard it whilst backpacking around Bangkok.
The Newly-Minted Mr. and Mrs. Van Praagh
I arrived home at 0430 this morning. On Thursday night, Mark and I headed off in my Jeep towards Saint James, NY, in order to attend the wedding of Mr. Ian Van Praagh and Miss Anne Brossard. This was no ordinary wedding, this wedding was extraordinary.
Wholly Crêpes
Because Miss Sarah Connerley and I have been unable to hook up, we met this morning with Miss Michelle Nolan, my darling ex, Miss Kate Turner, my housemate, and Mr. Jonah Bernier Crawford, to enjoy my specialty: homemade crêpes.
Chasing Nicole
I have been going to the gym like a maniac over the last few months. I can see my scores on the Erg improve and I can see a lot more musculature. I felt pretty good about my progress until I accepted an invitation to go on a walk with Nicole Wilson.
Professional Photographer
I started taking pictures seriously as my dad's shadow at around 9 or 10. As of 2002, that makes my career as a photographer 23-years-old.
Health care in the USA
There is no way that a 1st world country like the USA should, in such a time of prosperity and economic success, not be willing to assure that all her people are healthy, happy, and wise.
Chris and Nico Radio Interview
Tonight Nico Grubert and I, Chris Abraham, were interviewed by Bill and Dave of The Computer Report for broadcast on Talkradio 980 WCAP, broadcast every Saturday afternoon from 4:00-6:00. Eastern Time! So it would I guess be this Saturday 15 December at 4pm EST.
Normalish
I just drove out to Target on rt 1. The car's batts were acting funny, so I wanted to get a charge on, so I went to Target so that I could buy a can opener and some laundry detergernt and dishwashing machine liquid.
Our Song Movie Review
Michelle and I went to see Our Song, which should still be showing over at Visions and I was most certainly moved by both the obvious humanity of the story and the amazing talent of the actresses.
New York City
I spent the weekend to see Marlise. She was sent by her company, Mamma Cash, to do some training for her job in sfo and she stopped in nyc on the way home. She has always come to DC to see me, so I returned the favor!

2001 Filmfest DC 17-29 April
We are approaching the 2001 Washington, DC, International Film Festival, which starts tomorrow.
Zope 2.3.1 is All Growed Up
I am exploring the fun and function of Zope's new version, Zope 2.3.1 and I must say that the hacked feel is very mature, intuitive, and finished right out of the box.
