Now With 50% Less Doom

[l33tminion]

Life is good. The weather has been pleasant (very sunny, for the most part, with the exception of last night's storm). I had the chance to meet Maya (blackmoonlight), Patti's friend, in person yesterday. Work has been quite interesting lately. My Linux-fu continues to gradually improve.

Now to share some bits of the news that aren't so depressing:

First, the IRA has ordered a ceasefire, hopefully putting an end to decades of pointless terrorism.

Second, some of the provisions of the Patriot Act have been found unconstitutional by a federal judge.

Third, the second district special election in Ohio. This district is usually solidly (~70%) Republican, but the GOP candidate seems to have barely squeaked by with only 52% of the vote. It's still a loss, but perhaps this is a good sign for 2006.

Also, some non-news links:

First, I want to go to this store.

Second, another good reason to take the stairs. :-P
