Arrrr!

I'm becoming increasingly confident that we're going to war with Iran after the election. The entire tone of the discourse seems to have changed over the past few days, plus there're reports in the news that the Navy's been ordered to prepare minesweepers for action. It's been a long time coming.

I may have another whack at trying to join the Army, although I don't suppose it would do any more good than it did in 2001.

The Hungarians have discovered that their PM told lies to get elected. The horror!

After much angst and puzzlement, I've learned that RPM's dependency checker can't see anything that was installed from source code (as opposed to *.rpm packages). Being a latecomer to linux, I'd installed almost everything via rpm, and the issue never came up before now. I should probably be embarassed that I didn't know this, but instead I feel competent for having floundered about until I figured it out. Such are the vagaries of self-image.

The Giant Weasel has the most lovely Horse and Unicorn costumes, but they're only in toddler sizes!! :( They're like pajama suits with plush heads on top. I would SO wear one of the Horse ones. I may make one if I can figure out how to do the Horse head in time.
