Second verse . . .

Today at work we had a "rush" project. The insurance code was re-numbered by our esteemed legislature. Our project was to proofread to see that the "new" numbers for the statute matched the "old" numbered referenced in the bill. Also, we had to check other statute references for accuracy. Never mind the fact that we did THE SAME EXACT JOB about six weeks ago. Oh, well, I can think of worse ways to waste a day at work.

Saw the trailer for the new ST film . . . young kid, reckless, add a vintage Corvette, it all adds up to James Tiberius Kirk.

The local Wal-Mart installed a coinstar machine that counts your change. I thought those were a ripoff, because they took almost ten percent as a fee - but then discovered that if you get an Amazon gift card, you get 100%. Of course, I'm always getting stuff there, so that is a good deal. So, I take my big-ass jug to Wal-Mart and find out that machine doesn't offer Amazon . . . only cash voucher with the ten percent penalty. So, I guess I'm going to go back to the usual Albertsons, unless they quit offering the gift card. In that case, I may just bite the bullet to get rid of my change.

Got a new all in one printer. It is an Epson 600. So far I love it! Did my taxes last weekend and printed out the return and stuff.

High expectations for LSU baseball. Ranked 1st preseason in one poll. 2nd in two others. Keeping fingers crossed for national signing day.
