0807 Su * up 8:20ish; W=198.6; drugs, nose, hair, teeth, dishes, light @ Twenty years after the Singularity | ZDNet UK @sbisson The World's First Web Server @ How To Remove Your Personal Information From Background Check Websites @rowanf * Now on Google+ (as Steve Savitzky, mdlbear at gmail) via Montemplar I'd wanted to use the ssavitzky account, but apparently G+ doesn't recognize iceweasel, which is where that one is logged in. :( This works better because it's the account I actually use for YouTube, etc. * Lamplighters - Pinafore. Emmy wants to go, for once. The scene after Little Buttercup's big revelation was _priceless_. Many youngsters in the cast. * soft-shell crab tostadas at Buck's @ mental_floss Blog » 15 Wonderful Words With No English Equivalent ( ysabetwordsmith) @ Magnesium sulfate (from the package of Epsom Salt in the front bathroom). See also bath salts ! laughing at the way the YD is appalled at Colleen's "body butter". The interesting thing is noticing that I'm amused and relaxed. Happy? : grump: Kaiser only lets me make appointments with my PCP online. The others will require calls. * bed a little after 11
So the Web is now 20 years old, and I have acquired a Google+ account. We'll see how that goes -- I'm finding the circle thing rather annoying at present. And I'm not sure whether I should have used the mdlbear or the ssavitzky account -- it's the former at present; that's also the ID my YouTube account is under. So that may be ok.

We went up to San Francisco with the YD to see the Lamplighters production of H.M.S. Pinafore. Great fun, as usual. They made one casting decision that had me guessing all through the show, but they made it work. There are still some performances left in Mountain View and Walnut Creek -- don't miss it. I'll try to remember to post the spoiler after the run's over. The cast seemed very young, for the most part.

~No, daddy, you're just getting old.~ Thank you, Ame.

We finished the afternoon with dinner at Buck's in Woodside; Colleen and I had the softshell crab tostada, which towered more than six inches high and included a generous helping of Dungeness crab meat as well as the eponymous battered and fried crustacean on the top.

Links, as usual. rowanf points to an article on How To Remove Your Personal Information From Background Check Websites, which looks useful.
