Weekend Review:
…and what a weekend it was friends and neighbors. My in-laws waged the vilest form of warfare against me, biological warfare. I am just now feeling about half a human (which is common for a demigod), after purging my body in every conceivable way over the past few days. As a result, there is nothing to report from my weekend, other than to say I felt like hell and the details you dont want.
I have a lot of stuff to catch-up on at work so not a lot drivel to fill your eager minds with, I want to get in early and get out even earlier.

Today’s Bill:
SONNET 26
Lord of my love, to whom in vassalage
Thy merit hath my duty strongly knit,
To thee I send this written embassage,
To witness duty, not to show my wit:
Duty so great, which wit so poor as mine
May make seem bare, in wanting words to show it,
But that I hope some good conceit of thine
In thy soul's thought, all naked, will bestow it;
Till whatsoever star that guides my moving
Points on me graciously with fair aspect
And puts apparel on my tatter'd loving,
To show me worthy of thy sweet respect:
Then may I dare to boast how I do love thee;
Till then not show my head where thou mayst prove me.
Quote of the Day:
If you would be a real seeker after truth, it is necessary that at least once in your life you doubt, as far as possible, all things.
Rene Descartes
All my best to you my legions of admirers:
