You know, I don't often say it, but some days I fucking hate this place.

Today is certainly not one of them. Well played Roger, 5 stars and you're off the list.

:lulz:  Thanks.

And I'm done being sore at Nigel, provided she can speak to me what with the new position I've taken at work.

"Billy, when I say that ethics is our number one priority and safety is also our number one priority, you should take that to mean exactly what I said. Also quality. That's our number one priority as well. Don't look at me that way, you're in the corporate world now and this is how it works."

So, I am going to LA the second week of October.

I fucking HATE LA.

I hear LAX is a special kind of hell all on its own.  Like if Dante's hell had an annex.

It's almost as bad as Heathrow, so yeah.

In fact, new flunky and I have decided to drive.  It's an estimated 70 minutes faster on the return trip.

For whatever reason, despite being bogged down enough with for-credit courses, I was led like a goat to FutureLearn, a website of free online courses offered by universities in the UK. I figured this 6 week chat on Hadrian's Wall is a nice little way to take a break from my daily grind. Or something.

But yes, free school is the best kind of school. And they offer certificates as well you can purchase if you pass the tests.

Hey, not trying to dictate, but could we please all try to pledge on that nutbag down there?  I know we all think we have the perfect rejoinder, but it may be agreed that the shit's been played out.

Okay, but how many times have we tried THAT?

All it takes is one person.  Just one.

Just done did translating these Etruscan urn fragments:

---

Death present in life flowers beyond itself.
So suffer my children to return.

How they twist and seek being drawn back
That the Image of their Sun, the Father burns

---

And Fall they do, each and every One
For just a hint at their vestigial birthright

Thoth pecks at their heart's undone remains
& Drops a feather to measure, scales on sight

---

Love is toward of what they conspire
So cloven surfeit by false desire

The object is to more absence aquire
For there:  false memory no Right inspires 

---

The kingdom is taken by storm
So harness these forces that roam

Awake therefore my spirited soul
This nightmare is really getting old.
