"Men wish to own women, but never want to be owned by one..." That thought ocurred to me tonight. It's not universal, but it does seem to sum up so much of what goes on between men and women...mj 11:25:08 PM

Reality and other things I got the apartment. So now the packing starts, then the big move. I hate moving, but this one will be interesting. It's the most compact move I will have made in more then 14 years. I have all my stuff paired down, and it should be pretty straight forward compared to some of the moves I have done. Kelley Properties agreed to give me back half my deposit and all of my last months rent. The other half of the deposit comes after I move out. What is sad is the effort that had to occur to get them to do the right thing. Typical business, they tried to hide behind the law instead of just doing it in the first place. Why is it that so few seem to be able to just step to the plate and do the right thing? So much anger and frustration could be avoided by such a small amount of effort. I heard a great one today. Some guy was hunting in Africa and shot a Lion. The Lion didn't die and mauled him. So he's taking the bullet manufacturer to court for the bullets failure to bring the Lion down. This will end up as one of the Tort Reform people's examples of how things are screwed up. I agree that this guy is a moron, but it's a filed lawsuit, not a winner. The courts will kill the suit. This is a good argument for judges to have the right to impose fines on people who file silly lawsuits. It should require a panel of judges to agree to do that...mj 3:09:49 PM
