I'm at the Post tonight, where technology is both a blessing and a curse. The Web is slowly killing the business model of the paper, but at the same time the Web is quite a useful tool. Just tonight I received a contributed picture that had no identification. All I knew was the names of the three guys in the pic, and the fact that they went to a certain high school. The high school Web site helped me identify one of them, but I was stuck on the other two. In a moment of clarity, I searched Facebook for the two names, was able to match one, and therefore finished ID'ing the guys. Occasionally I don't feel dumb; this is one of those times.
In other news, my apartment (or at least Casey and Amanda's room) is infested with bees. Two people have been stung while in their bedroom. Oddly, we have no problems in our room as of yet, but maintenance has been called. Blech.
