It wasn't interesting or insightful, and it could not commit to being supernatural or believable. I kept waiting for it to end, but somehow it kept regurgitating more content.

Next time, bite harder, NED.

I did laugh out loud when at work today, when I opened the Find dialog in VSTS and 23 appeared in the edit box. So now it's after me I guess . . . so it goes.

If I have a number combo that sticks in my head, it's 10:16 - mostly from seeing that particular time a lot when I happen to look at a clock. Of course there are plenty of times that I look at a clock and don't see that particular time, but what fun is there in admitting that?

Don't we like for their to be a deeper meaning in our coincidences? Something towards which it all adds up?

I guess that lately I've been looking at the universe with a sense of futility, at least with regard to human impact or importance. Will humanity leave the cradle before Sol gets too old? Will we solve our pending crises or continue to add to our own misery?

Is the news always doom and gloom?

Again, I find myself in wishful thinking for simpler times, but does not every generation think there are perilous signs?

Edit: I just realized by "simpler times" I mean reverting from adult back to child, before my mind was consumed by such worries.
