DIARY

- YESTERDAY - I'm having a good week at work, although the server keeps going down for repairs. The evening was good and bad; good because another seven or eight people joined the Gothic Funk listhost and also because I had a nice long chat (as in, in a chat room) with Lisa. Bad because by the time all that was over, and given my five-hours-of-sleep night the night before, I was too exhausted to get anything else done. I've been dreaming crazy. I wish I could remember.

- WEATHER - I'm generally only giving the weather on Monday's now, but I'll make an exception when there's something interesting to share. Although the most thrilling thing this moment is the storms in New England that will be (indirectly) caused due to Alberto's traffic directing, here's some grim news from AccuWeather.com:

Tropical Storm Alberto may be a harbinger of things to come. All too often a meteorologist has to be the voice of doom and gloom, but our goal is to save lives and protect property. In order to do that sometimes we have to paint an ugly picture. The AccuWeather.com Hurricane Center led by Chief Forecaster Joe Bastardi is predicting another bad hurricane season with significant impact along the Atlantic Coast. Six storms from the tropics are predicted to make landfall either in the Gulf or along the Eastern Seaboard with 5 of those storms coming ashore as hurricanes. Of those, 3 are forecast to be major hurricanes.

There are, for example, at this moment four sites in the Atlantic that could develop into a tropical depression; this is very sobering to be happening so early in the season.

- JUNE - Is Student Safety month.
- HAPPY BIRTHDAY - Harriet Beecher Stowe and Boy George.

- PICTURE OF THE WEEK -
Florida Crystals: Moss as the Okefenokee Swamp in Florida.

- QUESTION OF THE DAY -
This is a copout, but it never fails to be interesting:
What is the first complete sentence on the thirteenth page of the book nearest at hand?
