Hey, someone read my Sokal blog. Now that's a surprise.
I often get emails from friends reacting to my various blogs. But my rant on the Sokal hoax had gotten nada--zilch--rien, no comments whatsoever. Until the silence was broken a few days ago when my dear old friend Perre, a fellow refugee from the academy, wrote me about it.
I'm glad to know I have at least a friend for every one of my peculiar sides.
Eye halve a spelling chequer
It came with my pea sea
It plainly marques four my revue
Miss steaks eye kin knot sea.
Eye strike a key and type a word
And weight four it two say
Weather eye am wrong oar write
It shows me strait a weigh.
As soon as a mist ache is maid
It nose bee fore two long
And eye can put the error rite
Its rarely ever wrong.
Eye have run this poem threw it
I am shore your pleased two no
Its letter perfect in its weigh
My chequer tolled me sew.

I took the train to work today.
Well, it's more like,
MUNI 45 from home to CalTrain,
CalTrain to Mountain View,
then Light Rail to San Jose.
It took forever and a few more years, but I got some work done on the train.
Nice not to have to deal with crazy drivers on the 101.
I felt so good not contributing to yet another hole in the ozone layer.
