It turns out all I had to do was re-upload some Perl modules to extlib. So I’m back. Miss me much?
Penn Station Sign
A flash of red and orange beneath gray stone and rusting beams.

Sock in Tree
It’s a sock. And it’s in a tree. Spotted in Little Italy.

Dumpster
The rim of the dumpster being above eye level, I was curious as to what might be in it, so I raised my pencam and snapped.

Around Mt Vernon Square
Looking up at the face of Mount Vernon Place United Methodist Church, in the heart of Baltimore.
Steeple of MVPUMC, with some cool blurring added for artsy perspective effect.
An alley off Mt Vernon Square, dark, even in the light of a clear day.
The distant steeple of First and Franklin Presbyterian, seen looking West from Charlest St and Madison Ave.

What does it say?
I wonder why this ArabicFarsi blog was at the top of the Blogdex link list yesterday? All the inbound links seem to be in ArabicFarsi too. What does it say? I’m terribly curious.
Update: Okay, there’s why: Iranian ladies blogging in Farsi! Isn’t that amazing?
BADUY!
I was in a rush this morning, so I sort of threw on my clothes without thinking: blue jeans, dark green t-shirt, white socks, navy blue jacket, and (ba-da-bum!) light brown walking sneakers. I feel so incredibly dorky right now.
Ninoy’s Martial Law
Teddy Benigno tells us that, 30 years ago, Ninoy would probably have declared Martial Law too.
“Marcos saw a weak democracy as an excuse to plunder the country, rid it of his enemies, engage in massive human rights violations, perpetuate himself and his family in power. Ninoy saw a weak democracy as his stirring raison de’etre to engage in a life-long crusade to purge Philippine society of its many weaknesses and evils. Even if he would die in the process.”
And die he did, while his descendants and successors doomed themselves to repeating the mistakes of the past, even into the next century.
