    Back in the day I used to have a box full of different cables for different purposes. There were rs232 & parallel & firewire & SCSI cables & more. Things are much better today: I still have a box full of different cables for different purposes, but now they're all labeled USB.

    I was making this Greek dish for Mother's Day. I needed to use about 1/2 of that cheese that comes floating in a cheese bathtub. So I cut it in half, but when I tried to fish the half out it broke in half. And when I tried again it broke in half again. There it was: Zeno's Feta.

    Conclusion: A Philadelphia pretzel that has been sitting in my freezer for two years still tastes better than anything you can buy in the mall in Virginia. If the mall was even open.
