All right, who's been using MSIE 5.5 on an Atari 2600 to visit my web page?

So last night I attended a farewell party for Jeremy Knowles, Dean of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences, at his residence on at 7 Bryant Street. This is actually his second residence, the one given to him by Harvard, for being Dean. It was an old house, very well maintained, with lots and lots of expensive art pieces. Someone pointed out a Rembrandt to me. The party was fun and interesting. I talked with the staff assistants mostly. The deans and department chairs mingled around each other and did their thing. Deans and department chairs talk about big issues and concern and make it a point to talk to everyone on their level, while the staff assistants stay in their own group and talk about the deans. I find this all pretty interesting, because I love watching social occurrences, especially at bars, clubs and parties. I find it intriguing the social patterns people evolve to depending on their power, money, position, even marital status.

I witnessed a remarkable natural event at Starmarket, this morning. Apparently, Starmarket puts yesterday’s produce on a cart at a greatly discounted price. What I saw was old ladies literally running through the aisles with their carts to the back of the produce department and grabbing bags of the produce on the cart. Some were even bickering with each other. I found this to be greatly amusing.

Yesterday was Harvard's commencement and I couldn't go to work because I didn't have a ticket and my office is in University Hall which is right in the middle of Harvard Yard. Unfortunately, I spent 75% of my day off in traffic in and around the city. Yesterday driving was about 3 times as bad as it normally is. I had to run miscellaneous errands (including getting a new car stereo installed) and going out to dinner with my wonderful girlfriend, Jenn, which was jammed up because of a JPMorganChase “Corporate Challenge” which tied Commonwealth Avenue from the Commons to Kenmore. It took an hour to go from BU to Copley which is a little over a mile. When I found out why it was taking so long I could only think to myself ‘I’m sitting here stuck in traffic and it’s not even for a good cause?!?’ Up until this point I could at least justify holding off my anger at the traffic by saying to myself ‘they’re helping kids somewhere’ or ‘raising money for research for cancer.’
