The thoughts and theories of a guy who basically should have gone to bed hours ago.

I know, I know - what's the point? But look at it this way - I stayed up late writing it, but you're reading it...

The I Should Be Sleeping Museum


A little bit of tech-geek history, for those who like that sort of thing:

Ladies and gentelmen, my second modem. The first was a 1200 baud model that someone gave me when I was in high school. This one, though, is the first modem I purchased myself, and it's the one that got me through college. It's a Hayes Accura 288 V.34 + Fax, maximum speed - a scorching 28.8 kilobits per second. Or, to put it another way, about 100 times slower than my current internet connection.

My, how far we've come...
