Zack, as per Vynce's and his suggestion and (Zack says)…

Hi, reader. I wrote this in 2002 and it's now more than five years old. So it may be very out of date; the world, and I, have changed a lot since I wrote it! I'm keeping this up for historical archive purposes, but the me of today may 100% disagree with what I said then. I rarely edit posts after publishing them, but if I do, I usually leave a note in italics to mark the edit and the reason. If this post is particularly offensive or breaches someone's privacy, please contact me.

Zack, as per Vynce's and his suggestion and (Zack says) my encouragement, actually wrote up a quite funny sleep-deprivation effects table suitable for use in your role-playing game. Seth dreamt an amazingly cool dream (cool as in insightful and provocative). And my Leonard had a very neat and good idea.

Today I amused at least one co-worker by referring to Krishna as "Big Blue." I also finished 21 Dog Years: Doing Time at Amazon.com by Mike Daisey, which I encourage you to read. The ending is better than any other ending I've read this summer. It's like a more comedic and accessible Microserfs.

Coming soon: Sumana's minireviews of Midnight's Children, The Chains of Chance, and a not-yet-published set of small-town vignettes!
