1. It's raining. Again. Still. This is a Good Thing. (See also: increasingly scarce "federal water" in California central valley.) For once I hope it rains all damn through PantheaCon later this week and into the next

you could try putting the money into a 6 month-2 year cd at 5% :P can't touch it for the duration, but better interest

[arethinn]

Where on earth do I find a CD which is as much as 5% these days? Also, I know a buck's a buck, but so far I haven't found the effort involved to be worth the measly $25-100 I would get for giving up the use of $1000 for 6 months to 2 years. I don't have $25,000 to throw at this.

doh, yeah, apparently i haven't checked cd rates since wamu got gobbled up by chase. they used to have an online cd option with 5%. my bad :\

I know all that, but they're the *creators* of the PDF in the first place.

[arethinn]

Rrrright... so what I mean is that whoever did have creation control over the PDF should have done B instead of A (and actually I strongly suspect we are talking about like two people here, not a whole army of them).

The PCon schedule always goes up late, but I think this year is later than most, not sure why.

You know it's only raining there because the_misha brought the weather with him, right? Maybe I'll do the same for PCon.

I never have loved any name that I had and I probably never will. :P More practically, I'm getting tired of typing fifteen characters every time I want to switch between this and esmestrella (which is also too long and it seems no one can pronounce or spell it anyway).

I'm all for rain through Pantheacon as long as it takes breaks on Friday morning and Monday afternoon, when we have to drive over the Grapevine. :P
