short takes

We had dinner with [livejournal.com profile] ralphmelton and [livejournal.com profile] lorimelton last night. We hadn't seen them since before Pennsic, so it was nice to spend part of an evening together. And yum, grilled angel-food cake with fruit chutney. :-)

[livejournal.com profile] osewalrus on why I blame the administration for the Katrina disaster. He says a lot of good things here.

Apparently the rumor I heard this afternoon is true; CPOF will be used in hurricane recovery. I wonder if the collected data and the Underwater Railroad can play well together.

On a much lighter note, Baptist or Anabaptist? made me laugh out loud. Thanks, [livejournal.com profile] patsmor.

This letter, supposedly from the Duke of Wellington in 1812, is a beautifully-written response to bureaucracy. (Link from Dani.) I must cache this now that I work for a more bureaucratic employer.
