I believe that within the next month we will be attending an event put
on by the Atlanta
Cajun Dance Association. They do a workshop followed by a
dance. February 8th is the day we are looking at. Laissez les bon
temps roullez!

There is a
report on Slashdot about an internet worm currently
rampaging. I’ve seen a lot of slow or unreachable sites this
morning, so I knew something was up (or down, as the case may be). At
the heart, this appears to be an exploit in the Microsoft SQL
Server. Go figure, MS with a vulnerability that allows the malicious
to cause widespread damage? Naaaaw, couldn’t be.

Still freakishly cold here. I’ve seen several places, like nearby
apartments, that have ice running all the way from the structure to
the gutter. That mess of frozen crap tells a sad story. We’re leaving
faucets dripping all the time until it warms up, even though I don’t
think we’re in much danger. Our pipes run through the same crawlspace
that contains the furnace, so there is always a layer of ambient warm
air at the top of it. I went in there yesterday to get something and
while it wasn’t toasty, it was significantly warmer than the outside
air, maybe 50 degrees or so.

On SFF.net, John Bartley asked a
crucial question in response to my post about giving blood: “Do you
want to kick it up a notch?” I’m not sure if I do. For the moment, I’m
giving the maximum blood I can - 6 1/2 pints per year. He offered up a
link to Oregon Red Cross
and to CERT pages for several emergency
organizations . At this
moment in time, I think what I’m doing is the max I can stand. I am
CPR certified (which I might need to renew) and I give a little over 3
quarts of blood a year. I’m not quite prepared to be one of the
emergency preparedness people.
