Well, actually, it's hard. I'm still working on the programming project, and it's too nice a day out to spend breaks blogging.
Hopefully back up to full posting volume on Monday.

I think the summertime is burning peoples brain pans. I was out taking my lunchtime walk around the streets of downtown Dallas. Well they have these disabled people all over the place selling these Christian newspapers. And I guess the people selling the papers get to keep the profits for some spending money of their own. Anyways, there is this guy on a bicycle who stops, gets his wallet out of his bag, and gives a guy selling these papers a dollar. And in exchange he gets a paper. Whilst he is returning his wallet to his bag to prepare to ride off again, another homeless person, less a bundle of newspapers, starts hassling the guy on the bike for some money also. The guy on the bike promptly tells him, "No". And the homeless guy #2 actually says, "What? I'm not good enough cause I don't have any newspapers to sell." At which point the guy on the bicycle snaps and screams, "F-- Off I'm sick and tired of being hassled by you people every F--ing day." Well the homeless guy goes bonkers and starts walking out into the middle of the street and he's screaming and stumbling around in the middle of the road while cars are honking and driving right past him. And the guy on the bike is screaming at him to "Shut the F up" I just stood their thinking, "Alright, free freak show." The homeless guy actaullay managed to make it across the street in one peice but that didn't stop him from yelling and screaming at practically no one is particular cause by this point the guy on the bike had already gotten his stuff together and road off. And to think, another wonderful week of 100 degree weather forecasted for Dallas.
