Notepad Haiku
Aghast. Is there no
notepad on my Ubuntu?
Wine to the rescue.
Obviously, a lot of people helped in getting Notepad to run under Wine.
Green herbivores
Many types eat grass,
usually, herbivores.
Some green leafy plants.

You asked: a haiku on the metric system
An intriguing question from the apache logs: “a haiku on the metric system”. Why yes, we covered that many moons ago in this post as filed in the category of (you guessed it) ‘haiku’. (Wikipedia: what is an haiku, again?) But for the sake of completion, a brand new haiku on the metric system:
millimeters are
not centimeters, a cup
of coffee sounds great.
Slugs.
Too many more slugs
Giant ones at that. Would you
like French fries with that?
Update: You need to fry them, obviously.

A thread revisited
Reminder to self:
don’t call the main thread without
‘synchronizing’ it.
Earlier and much earlier.

Am obviously
bored and have nothing else to do.
Ravenholm? Not now.

Ask Isaac Newton
Update: Huh?. One day, everybody will go over to the metric system. One can only dream.
– It’s a go: almond stuffing is ready. Now it’s up to the dough part. More butter!
– I’ve got one ‘tour’ to go and then just roll the dough out as thin as I can. Now it’s 17:29. By 7 I should be able to tell if it worked out or not.
– Much later: It worked out OK. Not perfect: the dough needs more folding and (definitely) needs to be a lot thinner. The almond paste was perfect: reminder to self not to use too much of it on the dough itself. Otherwise the end results looks more like almond-spice explosion tarts.
