Jun 4: Shagrat's blood tests showed abnormally high levels of urea nitrogen and creatnine (the latter the highest our vet had ever seen) -- we may need to put her to sleep; everyone is bummed.

This just before I was going to copy the data over to our new spiffy server. Guess the old computer knew that consignment to the basement was in its near future and decided to wreak havoc.

Nov 10: added more than ninety new entries to the Recent Books page, but haven't completed annotating them, because I sliced a fingertip (the one which hits the S and W and X keys) while slitting open a plastic-covered roll of coins . . .

By the way, for those who asked (the rest of you can skip to another page), these pages are constructed with a combination of Hot Dog Pro 6.6, Front Page 2000 (Dave prefers editing directly in HTML, though), and Microsoft Word.
