Semi-random thoughts

• The eight word Thanksgiving greeting my stockbroker sent me was followed by 283 words of fine print legalese disclaimers.
• I was actually rooting for Boise State to beat Nevada. I'd have loved to see the Wisconsin offense steamroll over them in the Rose Bowl.
• One of these days I will catch up on everything, and post more often. The obstacle today was all the time I spent fixing my wife's computer. It looks like her user profile got deleted somehow. When nothing I tried restored it, I ended up creating a new user for her, but it's not the same. And it was a big hassle to do it, because there was only the one profile on the computer, and I had a great deal of difficulty getting into safe mode.
