 From the "I am getting old" files.  Tonight, when I stood face to face with my son (soon to be 12 year old) I said, "Aaron, this is about the last time in your life you will still be a full head shorter than me."

He replied, "you're cheating, you leaned your head back!"

"No," I said, "measure again."

He took his flattened hand and measure off of the top of his head and found a spot just under my chin (if you have been here, you know what is going to happen next).

"You're right Dad, I am shorter than your chin, but not your other chin."  Heh!

 David W. has it:  Weblogging is about creating an online self.  It is your mind... online.  It isn't a cartoon avatar or a silly sign-in name.  It is your body of work, your writing that brings your mind alive online.  It can't be done in a couple articles.  You need to slog at it, day-in day-out, until people begin to understand how you think.

 Jay provides a summary of Webloggers group get together last night.  It looks like it was fun.

 Reuters.  Massive decrease in Federal surplus projected.  Deficits to return this year.  Time to revamp last year's tax cuts.  It's pretty clear that higher interest rates due to a lower budget surplus will have a much bigger impact on long-term growth than tax cuts for the wealthy.  The Dems need to take the lead here:  on this issue Bush is dead meat.

 This is cool.  According to Yahoo search, I am the second Weblog listed for the term "Weblog."   Nice!
