Ahem.
Today is the tenth anniversary of my very very first post to Usenet. Ten years of farting around the internet, wasting time, and boggling at crazy people. Time flies when you're having fun. :)
In honor of this little anniversary, I'd like to do something I don't often do. This is a meme I saw when I was first poking around Usenet, and I thought it'd be fun to do it again:
Take a look around you. Apart from your computer and its peripherals, and your computer desk/table/milk crate and chair, what, in order of their physical closeness, are the five things nearest to you right now?
1. An eyeglass repair kit
2. 2 AA batteries
3. A cat
4. A pencil
5. A stale beer
