And if evil and sins are people's beginnings then I will be there.

• Oh look, it might not be Syria next after all. PRACE BETS NOW!

• Good fucking riddance. Though I shudder to think what he'll be replaced with.

• The target audience for Matrix: Reloaded is in fact scholars of comparative religion.

I really hate cooking meat. It smells disgusting, you can see how much fat you're about to eat and it makes doing the dishes an utter bastard. Tastes good, but. Fills you up, but.

Quiet weekend in. Today I did said dishes (a horrifying task), helped redcountess with her geeking (including reliving the saga of Java on FreeBSD, which is still compiling - Liz has added memory to her wishlist) and went down the shops. There I obtained an item to induce trepidation indeed: a bottle of Asda own-brand premium ale. Alleged real beer. It's called Gentleman Jack, and it's brewed for them by Shepherd Neame. And it's half the price of everything else. And ... it's actually not offensive. A bit watery. But slides down the throat very effectively.

(I did buy some Spitfire and Old Peculier as well. Asda actually have quite a usable real ale selection.)

I should note that last weekend at Dead and Buried, ladymoonray reiterated and emphasised the assessment of my favourite new tarting outfit she made after B-Movie: not merely 'gorgeous', but "unfairly gorgeous." I like that. Gorgeous beyond the bounds of common decency. Gets the chyx too.

Tomorrow the rats come home from arkady's. w00t! And there will be more meat to cook, no doubt. (Not them.)

Update: To run Mozilla (or Firebird) for Linux on FreeBSD with compatibility installed:

# cd /usr/compat/linux/usr/lib
# ln -s libstdc++-libc6.1-1.so.2 libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3

This is wrong and bad in so many ways, but works. So far.

While he might not be any better than many other candidates I think it would be a rather ironic justification.
