Earl Grey and Lady Grey are having a warm, romantic, and (dare i say) wet morning together in the silky darkness of my big black cup. I think i need to put a little sugar in this bowl.

I just realized i have 3 computers in my office, each with a gigabyte of RAM. My first computer had 16K. I must be getting 187500 times as much stuff done now.

Around Ross Perot time, i imagined peeps sitting around thinking "Man, these millionaires in Washington are out of touch with ordinary people. We need a change! I know, let's try a billionaire!"

Sequel?:

Gov.-elect Schwarzenegger Should Come Clean About Ken Lay Meeting Or Face Inquiry, Group Says
...While California faced blackouts and rate hikes, however, you were secretly meeting with Enron's Ken Lay, who had come to be widely reviled by Californians as the progenitor of deregulation and the head of the gang stealing billions from our businesses, consumers and taxpayers.... A review of your proposals raises serious concerns that you share many of Ken Lay's views on deregulation. By the time of your meeting with Ken Lay, after three sets of rolling blackouts, the massive increase in consumer energy prices and the insolvency of the state's private utilities, every Californian knew that electricity deregulation was an unmitigated disaster. It had become indisputably clear that electricity is simply too vital to the economy and public safety to leave in the hands of unregulated corporations.

Your proposal to revisit the deregulation experiment that exploded into California's single worst financial and public policy disaster directly contradicts the public interest in ending deregulation once and for all. Californians cannot afford another deregulation nightmare.
