Breakfast and a Dog

Breakfast at Arizona Bread Company with a friend, and I get to dog-sit her St. Bernard for a few days, and borrow the use of her washer and dryer whilst my washer is still on the fritz. Shaping up to be a good day already.

Tudor Tailor

I head the Tudor Tailor team speak this evening at the Phoenix Art Museum. More demonstrate than merely speak. Deliciously academic tidbits about reading wills to gain insight into what clothing was like in Tudor times.

University In Film .com

A friend of mine has set up a wiki for documenting sightings of universities in television and film. Neat. Especially neat is that it's using what may be my new favorite documentation license, though that bit about invariant parts doesn't often apply to documentation I write, so I'm coming around to the idea that Creative Commons ShareAlike is good enough.

Creative Commons Attribution is not good enough, so it's one of those low-grade constant background annoyances in my life that projects like Sakai and Fluid use it and JA-SIG will likely adopt it.

Question: How do you get a pearl?
Answer: Through continual irritation.
