actually jen, i prefer to refer to you as Old Hag. "excuse me Old Hag, but we're currently out of the 64 MB memory cards. We should have them in a week if you haven't passed on by then." it's amazing just how ancient you are, while i am a sprightly youngster.

just in case you're wondering, fingerprint dust is very hard to clean up. it just keeps spreading and spreading until a thin layer is all over your stereo, or whatever surface it happens to be on.

Speaking of fingerprint dust, while i was talking the evidence technician on tuesday, he was explaining what surfaces are good or bad for capturing fingerprints. here's a list for all you curious types with all your curios:

good
metal with no tactile finish
glass
porcelain
smooth plastics

bad
metal with a tactile finish (like that crap they put on your stereo)
textured plastics
wood

i decided yesterday to make my house a fingerprint-friendly house. i think the best way to do this is to build my house completely out of porcelain. what do you think?

the beck still has no computer out in san francisco. it's been a little sad with no blog communication from her, but she's rocking out No-Cal style. do the people from northern california refer to their part of the state as No-Cal like those from So-Cal do? these are the questions that we need to commission $2.5 MM studies to answer.

i'm slipping out of here. maybe i'll be back, we'll see.
