It wasn't me. You can't prove anything.

Notes:

One thing about the time change, I can see out of the filthy bus windows a bit better. They leave the lights on inside the bus. It is very well lit. Between the window tint and the scratches on the windows, you cannot tell what is outside the bus when it is dark.

The walk in this morning was kind of strange. It didn't seem all that different with the time change. It was unseasonably warm and humid. That has little to do with the time change, but it was far more noticeable. Dark is dark. The dawn did crack before I walked in the door at work. That was about it.

People are leaving big banks in droves. This is good. I made the switch to USAA, a "member bank" about seven or eight years ago. Maybe longer. I suppose the big banks figured out that A) they have competition and B) people have limits. The people in question are mostly younger people who may not be the big wage earners today, but they are the future. As they build businesses and take charge of larger business, they will remember the smaller hungry banks are out there.

There is no federal law against sexual discrimination. People have to go to a city or county authority to get the ball rolling. Not sure what I think of this. Sometimes I think there should be a single point people can go to if they have been wronged. This does not exist.

Had to use the admin password today to install a font on someone's computer and to rename a printer. Why do you need admin privileges to change a printer name? I understand installing a driver, kind of. That is the system and all. But change the name? And install a font? That is just a couple data files. Come on.

I want to write a book titled "How to avoid a financial depression by redefining th word every five minutes". I would like to know if the situation the world is in would have been called a depression by the rules that were in place in the nineties and mid 2000s.

It rained today for the first time in a while. Need much more of this. We are going to be behind on rain for the rest of the year. I fear this pattern may be a new normal. That would suck. Houston might have to give up its reputation of mosquito capitol of North America. (paraphrasing)
