Sometimes I feel like a chicken who's head has been cut off. Although the semester is over, I'm beginning my winter break upgrade projects with enthusiasm (hooray). I hope this year I can get the major systems upgraded before the big holiday period happens, so at least I can have Christmas or New Years day off...

I ran in the Jacksonville Half-Marathon yesterday. My time was not great, but it was "OK". It was raining at the start, and I hit a water filled pothole at mile 2. I developed a nice blister on the ball of my foot by mile 6 and it hurt pretty badly to finish the race. Stupid.

Spain and Morocco have agreed to build an underground rail to link Africa and Europe. They plan to have it go under the Med 40km west of Gibralter. It sounds pretty ambitious because that section of the ocean is still 1000' (300M) deep.

We caught Saddam. I guess it happened on Saturday night. They announced the capture right at the starting line for the race. So, why have we been unable to capture Osama yet???
