The Good Life... a weblog about life, technology, and the Opera web browser

Some people call me.... <cue Batman theme music> Batman!

Isn't it funny how comics often mirror life? My car was making funny noises on the way back to school last weekend....

I'm now back at school, safe and sound. Break was good, though not necessarily productive. Hopefully I'll get back on track soon.

Helen: You do a great impression of her!

Me: Do I really?

Helen: No.

Delawhere?

I'm working on some image galleries. I have one semi-working. Check it out. There's only three pictures, but more will come in time.

#37: Never stand someone up. It really feels horrible to just wait for someone and not have them show up. It's not so much that you shouldn't do it because it's just plain rude, but because it triggers unnecessary worrying upon the waiting party, especially when they care a lot about you.

FYI, I've posted a lot these past couple of days, so some of the stuff has automatically moved to the archives.

OK, I've added some images to some of my early posts, specifically November 20 and 21.

Eponyms, for those of you that don't know (I didn't know two days ago), eponyms are words derived from someone's name (i.e., sandwich, baud, and America). You can easily find information about eponyms on the web, including lists of eponyms. Reader's Digest has a nice article on eponyms in their current issue, which gave me the fuel for this post. Anyway, just another cool English thing I thought I'd share.
