Just Another Saturday
Finally had Costco install the new Bridgestone tires on my 2001 Celica GT-S before the rain starts. Tires rated for 149 miles per hour. Big deal. There aren't any road sections during my commute where you can hit much more than 80 mph. Even then, only for a minute or two.

Read and compared digital camera reviews on multiple Olympus models and the HP Photosmart 850.

Took Misty, the little Chihuahua, for standard shots at the vet. As usual, she was thrilled to get out of the house. Asked the doctor about her "baboon butt" due to chewing off two patches of hair, one on either side of her tail. He said one possibility is the stress of our daughter moving out, since she bought Misty and was the dog's closest companion. That absence, maybe coupled with the fact that daughter then bought a new Shitzu puppy and brought it over several times, letting it playfully chase Misty around the furniture. Stress? What stress? We don't allow the puppy over here any more.

Spent only a few minutes with the Pinnacle Systems Studio 8 evaluation copy.

Tried in vain to catch up on old news aggregator items.

Gasoline benchmark for my southern San Francisco Bay area town's el-cheapo gas station today is $1.589 / $1.689 / $1.789 for a gallon of 87 / 89 / 91 octane.
