Status 07/20/2005

I had the brakes replaced on my car yesterday--that was interesting. The guy said he had to replace the rear brakes because they were pretty dead, but he could try to lube up the front brakes so they wouldn't make the "I'm dying please replace me" scream of mortal anguish they've been making for a week or so. Given that they're brakes and that they were on their last legs, I had the guy replace them all. Curious that he suggested the lube solution, though.

I received a whole bunch of information from NEU--so I'm off to deal with that and get all the things I need to do done today.

Then tonight I'm going to pick up some wood from Home Depot and build a coffee table.

I think next week, I'll start working on PyBlosxom again. I've been following Ian Bicking's blog entries on WSGI and Paste and it's very intriguing.

Good call on the front brakes.  I just got a car and after getting the muffler fixed, rear brakes (disk--cool!) made that awful metal on metal grind of having gone beyond that mortal scream....I waited too long fix them and busted one rear caliper. Extra $125 on my bill and that gut dropping feeling of brakes hitting the floor in traffic.  it was quiet area so easy pullover and later baby it to the mechanic..


Please keep comments appropriate. I reserve the right to remove anonymous comments, flames, spammy, inappropriate, and other comments that I deem to be worth removing.

Note: New comments get placed in a "draft" status and will NOT show up on the site until I explicitly approve it. Usually that happens within 24 hours, but sometimes I go away and it takes a day or two.

Note 2: There is now a preview button for those of you who want to see a preview! However, it doesn't quite work the way you'd think it should work. I'll look into adjusting it some day.
