Pat Rice

Misanthrope. Curmudgeon. Recluse. Generally irritating.
Sam keeps turning off lights, so he can see the flashers on his fire engine (which, after months of brokenness, suddenly works again).
"Before beginning the self-cleaning cycle on your oven, be sure to clean the interior thoroughly."
pzr is sitting in the dark, courtesy of #2 son.
"Dear PAT: Are you worried about falling behind on payments for your home at PO BOX 1043?" No, not worried at all. But thanks for asking.
From the kitchen, Sam's voice: "Peanut butter underwear!"
pzr is looking forward to a little peace & quiet.
Feeling mildly guilty for whinging about http://gdgt.com/. There was a chimp involved in my login fiasco, but it wasn't the site developers.
Tried to log in to http://gdgt.com/ just now. Password didn't work, password reset didn't work. Site must have been designed by chimpanzees.
I'm going to configure the TiVo & the computer so that neither of them will operate prior to 7:00am.
pzr wonders whether the phrase "be quiet, people are still sleeping" will ever mean anything.
Took two tries to spell 'creampuff' correctly. First attempt was 'creampug', which sounds like an unusual breed of dog.
Mention 'Chicago' in a post, get followed by @ChiBeardPapa. (Hm...creampuffs....)
Wondering what to do with my Foursquare account. Tempted to look up all the sleazy places in Chicago & start checking in from them.
There's an ambulance in town with a European-style siren; we've heard it a few times today. Very strange.
pzr hopes the kids go to sleep soon.
Wow, a Facebook application I hadn't blocked yet. Didn't know there were any left....
The pillar of smoke rising over northwest Champaign is nothing to worry about. It's just a cinnamon-roll project gone somewhat awry.
Curtis Orchard is oddly uncrowded, given the weather.
Christmas candy in the grocery stores, Toys-R-Us open at 7:00am...remember when there was a holiday between Halloween and Christmas?
pzr has a scorching headache.
"It is a truth universally acknowledged that a zombie in possession of brains must be in want of more brains." *snort*.
pzr wonders how long the Apple TV re-sync will take.
Had to reset the Apple TV this evening; now re-copying 10,000+ songs, videos & images thereto. This may take a while.
Someday the 7W will be on time. Alas, today is not that day.
We need a paclet for each Star Trek character: KirkData, PicardData, DataData....
