Strange morning
Well today is really starting out strange. I am here but none of the other staff or students has shown up. Since it is not my class maybe they were told to come in later or something, I don’t know.
Again I took the weekend off from blogging. Actually I took the weekend off from a few things. I did get my chores done and all of that but I really basically just rested and stayed on the couch much of the daytime and posted op and chatted at night.
I got all my stuff ironed yesterday, and I have been making a lot of progress with my infrastructure in the game.
I finally figured out how to move stuff around in my Yahoo account so I have classified users. Also for the game chat we now are using Yahoo instead of the IRC because it is more convenient and causes less lag in the game.
Well I guess the grocery store workers have voted on a contract. They were going to go out on strike. I still can’t see why baggers and cashiers need to make that much money, as that is not a career job, but so be it. That is why I will continue to buy stuff at the commissary and have given up on shopping out in town mostly.
This morning on my way to work I was listening to the radio when an interesting point was brought up. Over and over again since the Athenian’s democracies fall apart after about 200 years. As the people continues to vote for the people that will give them the most from the government funds the people grow more and more dependant and apathetic until the government is overthrown and a dictator installed. Well we are at 221 years old now, so how long will it last? When grocery store baggers get over $8.00 an hour, the time has come to stand back and wonder where we are going.
Well it is the normal start time for the day and still no staff or students are here. I wonder if there is a holiday or something I was not told about. There have already been calls from people wanting to talk to the military staff. This could get interesting. I do know the guys like to go to the gym and work out before class, and that might be where they are, but since the senior guy is on vacation they have been taking a few freedoms.
Well I guess that is about it for now. I can at least get the lab set up for the day.
